i hope to get it right. We are talking about defining the thermal zone [1].

There are 4 examples:

(a) - CPU thermal zone with one internal sensor
(b) - IC with several internal sensors
(c) - Several sensors within one single thermal zone
(d) - Board thermal

I decided to choose (a) for the patch and Eduardo tends to (b).

Here are the questions:

Where is the thermal sensor TSENS located (ARM core or VideoCore 4)?

Do we expect several internal sensors?
