[PATCH 4/6] thermal: re-document thermal units

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Zhang, Rui <rui.zhang@xxxxxxxxx>

(reverting the previous sysfs patch also reverted a fix
 to the thermal units documentation, which is restored by this commit)

The generic thermal driver shows temperature in millidegree Celsius.
