							|  |  |  | ----------- | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | This driver permits reading of the internal temperature sensor of AMD |

											2011-05-25 20:43:31 +02:00
										 |  |  | Family 10h/11h/12h/14h/15h processors. |

										 |  |  | All these processors have a sensor, but on those for Socket F or AM2+, | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | the sensor may return inconsistent values (erratum 319).  The driver | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | will refuse to load on these revisions unless you specify the "force=1" | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | module parameter. | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | Due to technical reasons, the driver can detect only the mainboard's | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | socket type, not the processor's actual capabilities.  Therefore, if you | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | are using an AM3 processor on an AM2+ mainboard, you can safely use the | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | "force=1" parameter. |

							|  |  |  | There is one temperature measurement value, available as temp1_input in | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | sysfs. It is measured in degrees Celsius with a resolution of 1/8th degree. | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | Please note that it is defined as a relative value; to quote the AMD manual: | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |   Tctl is the processor temperature control value, used by the platform to | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |   control cooling systems. Tctl is a non-physical temperature on an | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |   arbitrary scale measured in degrees. It does _not_ represent an actual | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |   physical temperature like die or case temperature. Instead, it specifies | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |   the processor temperature relative to the point at which the system must | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |   supply the maximum cooling for the processor's specified maximum case | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |   temperature and maximum thermal power dissipation. | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | The maximum value for Tctl is available in the file temp1_max. | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | If the BIOS has enabled hardware temperature control, the threshold at | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | which the processor will throttle itself to avoid damage is available in | 
					
						
							|  |  |  | temp1_crit and temp1_crit_hyst. |
