rdmsr is a tool used for reading a CPU's machine specific registers (MSR).
       Note:  if you're running a Debian kernel, be sure that the msr.ko kernel module is loaded. 'modprobe msr'
       should do the trick. Otherwise, you'll get an  error  about  rdmsr  not  being  able  to  open  files  in
       /dev/cpu/...
