--- Comment #7 from Andrew Gallatin <gallatin@FreeBSD.org> ---
(In reply to Adrian Chadd from comment #6)

In all honesty, claude told me about it as I was bouncing ideas off of it.  It
seems like its not documented (checked volume 4 of the Intel SDM, where other
MSRs are found), but is used in several projects.  If you do a web search for 
for "PL4" or "icc_max" or intel msr 601h, you'll find about as much as I found
out from claude.

This knob is typically set by BIOS and sometimes tweaked by overclockers, and i
suspect its not documented because setting it wrong can lead to instability.  

Eg, for *my* case, I'm not sure there is a lot to do here.  I mostly opened
this bug because you asked for it.
