 * `LIKWID_SILENT`: Disable stdout output caused by the library and the scripts. Some scripts provide the `-q`/`--quiet` command line switch which provides the same functionality
 * `LIKWID_SKIP`: Variable content must be a hexmask. This hexmask describes which threads should be skipped while pinning. This function is required to avoid pinning the shepherd threads used by some OpenMP and MPI implementations. The version 4.3.1 introduced an automatic detection of the shepherd threads. In most cases the detection works, but if not, the hexmask overwrites the automatic detection.
 * `LIKWID_DEBUG`: Verbosity settings for the LIKWID library
+* `LIKWID_FORCE_SETUP`: Always setup all counters in `setupCounters(...)` and don't respect the previous configuration. Without this environment variable set, LIKWID writes the configuration to the register only if the configuration has changed (compared to the last `setupCounters(...)` call)
