Refer to the Intel SDM Vol.4, the package C-state residency counters of modern IA micro-architecture are all ticking in TSC frequency, hence we can apply simple math to transform the ticks into microseconds. i.e., residency (ms) = count / tsc_khz residency (us) = count / tsc_khz * 1000 This also aligns to other sysfs debug entries of residency counter in the same metric in microseconds, benefits reading and scripting. v2: restore the accidentally deleted newline, no function change.
