Processes: CPU power beside the clock, from the packages' energy counters
New sensor cpu.power: watts from the RAPL energy counters (Intel, and AMD Zen through the same driver), summed over every package and averaged into history. Parts of a package, psys and the MMIO duplicate are left out. The counters are root-only, so a daemon that isn't root reads them through `hamlab cpu-energy`, a root helper started once with sudo or doas and asked over a pipe each sample, the same shape as the GPU client walk's helper. It reads only the counters it finds itself. No counters or no root means no reading, and the CPU box shows nothing extra. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
