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/PCI device files or
       MMIO ranges. The MSR/PCI device files and MMIO rangesare 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.
