NAME

       likwid-accessD - This tool forwards the access operations from LIKWID PerfMon tools to the
       MSR  and PCI device files

DESCRIPTION

       likwid-accessD is a command line application that opens a UNIX file socket and  waits  for
       access  operations  from LIKWID tools that require access to the MSR and PCI device files.
       The MSR and PCI device files are only accessible for users with root privileges, therefore
       likwid-accessD  requires  the suid-bit set or a suitable libcap setting.  Depending on the
       current system architecture, likwid-accessD permits only access to registers  defined  for
       the architecture.
