There are a few bugs about with versions of this not reporting information correctly. If possible, fetch the latest upstream version (https://01.org/powertop/downloads) and see if that gives you more accurate stats. (According to the list below, 22 devices are using 100% CPU. Do you have more than 22 CPU cores? If not, that should have clued you into it being a bug :) > > 22.4% CPU use > 100.0% Audio codec hwC0D0: ATI > 100.0% Display backlight > 266354 pkts/s Network interface: eth0 (r8169) > 100.0% PCI Device: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] FCH SD Flash Controller > 100.0% PCI Device: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] FCH SATA Controller [AHCI mode] > 100.0% PCI Device: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] FCH USB OHCI Controller > 100.0% PCI Device: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] FCH USB EHCI Controller > 100.0% PCI Device: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] FCH USB OHCI Controller > 100.0% PCI Device: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] FCH USB EHCI Controller > 100.0% PCI Device: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] FCH Azalia Controller > 100.0% PCI Device: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.
