Of course this is software, we can always change it -- particularly since there will be a very small list of users for the new I/F, and we happen to know them:-) > I'd like to see passive cooling (heck, the entire > ACPI v3.0 thermal model, if needed) added to hwmon, that will enhance hwmon > to be even more generic, and we all benefit from that. The ACPI 3.0 thermal model requires quite a bit of sophistication from the system designer and BIOS writer. Based on the quality of system designs and BIOS code we see in the industry, I think it is way over the head of 99% of the industry. That said, if a system does come out that supports the ACPI 3.0 Thermal Model and they want to ship Linux on it, we can look into it then. cheers, -Len - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
