Value 0 means it reaches to Tcontrol + temperature. Sub-zero value means the die temperature + goes across Tconrtol to Tjmax. +temp2_min Provides the minimum DTS thermal margin to Tcontrol of + the CPU package. +temp2_lcrit Provides the value when the CPU package temperature + reaches to Tjmax. + +temp3_input Provides current Tcontrol temperature of the CPU + package which is also known as Fan Temperature target. + Indicates the relative value from thermal monitor trip + temperature at which fans should be engaged. +temp3_crit Provides Tcontrol critical value of the CPU package + which is same to Tjmax. + +temp4_input Provides current Tthrottle temperature of the CPU + package. Used for throttling temperature. If this value + is allowed and lower than Tjmax - the throttle will + occur and reported at lower than Tjmax. + +temp5_input Provides the maximum junction temperature, Tjmax of the + CPU package. + +temp<n>_label Provides core temperature if this label indicates + 'Core #'. +temp[n]_input Provides current temperature of each core. +temp[n]_max Provides thermal control temperature of the core. +temp[n]_crit Provides shutdown temperature of the core. +temp[n]_crit_hyst Provides the hysteresis value from Tcontrol to Tjmax of + the core. + +temp<n>_label Provides DDR DIMM temperature if this label indicates + 'DIMM #'. +temp<n>_input Provides current temperature of the DDR DIMM. + +Note: + DIMM temperature group will be appeared when the client CPU's BIOS + completes memory training and testing. -- 2.16.1 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-hwmon" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
