MacOS – What does machdep.xcpm.cpu_thermal_level mean

macosterminal

I execute

sysctl machdep.xcpm.cpu_thermal_level

on the terminal and get a value. It is not the temperature. I would like to know what does it mean.

If I had to guess, I'd say it's the amount of throttling that is slowing down your CPU to prevent it overheating under high load. See the table below - it only rises about 0 when the temp and load increase:

I use this command:

sudo powermetrics --samplers smc | perl -ne 'chomp; print "$_ " if(/:/); print "\n" if(/prochots/)'

so you can see how things change over time in a nice table - .eg.
