### Secure Boot
|
|
|
Right now it is mandatory to **disable Secure Boot** (in BIOS) in order to avoid [Kernel Lockdown](https://lwn.net/Articles/706637/). In particular Lockdown restricts access to MSR and PCI BAR (via /dev/mem) which are required by this script.

+### Thermald
|
|
|
+As discovered by *DEvil0000* the Linux Thermal Monitor ([thermald](https://github.com/intel/thermal_daemon)) can conflict with the purpose of this script. In particular, thermald might be pre-installed (e.g. on Ubuntu) and configured in such a way to keep the CPU temperature below a certain threshold (~80 'C) by applying throtthling or messing up with RAPL or other CPU-specific registers. I strongly suggest to either disable/uninstall it or to review its default configuration.
