1ToDos sorted by priority:
2
3- Use bitmask functions to parse CPU topology more robust
4  (current implementation has issues on AMD)
5- Try to read out boost states and frequencies on Intel
6- Somewhere saw the ability to read power consumption of
7  RAM from HW on Intel SandyBridge -> another monitor?
8- Add another c1e debug idle monitor
9  -> Is by design racy with BIOS, but could be added
10     with a --force option and some "be careful" messages
11- Add cpu_start()/cpu_stop() callbacks for monitor
12  -> This is to move the per_cpu logic from inside the
13     monitor to outside it. This can be given higher
14     priority in fork_it.
15- Fork as many processes as there are CPUs in case the
16  per_cpu_schedule flag is set.
17  -> Bind forked process to each cpu.
18  -> Execute start measures via the forked processes on
19     each cpu.
20  -> Run test executable in a forked process.
21  -> Execute stop measures via the forked processes on
22     each cpu.
23  This would be ideal as it will not introduce noise in the
24  tested executable.
