# cpu-cli-controller
Control linux CPUs via the CLI.
## Description
Cores can be:
- activated
- deactivated
- shown (status `1` means on, status `0` means off)
The information is displayed in the format:
```
<CORE> <STATUS> [COMMENT]
```
The cores are detected by finding the directories of the form `/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu<n>`, where <n> is a positive integer. To activate (resp. deactivate) them, it sets `/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu<n>/online` to `1` (resp. `0`). The cpu0 cannot be deactivated.
