Description
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
This driver permits reading of the internal temperature sensor of AMD
|
|
Family 10h/11h/12h/14h/15h/16h 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.
