Am 06.03.25 um 01:56 schrieb Kurt Borja:

All models with the "AWCC" WMAX device support a way of manually
controlling fans.

The PWM duty cycle of a fan can't be controlled directly. Instead the
AWCC interface let's us tune a PWM `boost` value, which has the
following empirically discovered, aproximate behavior over the PWM
value:

	pwm = pwm_base + (pwm_boost / 255) * (pwm_max - pwm_base)

Where the pwm_base is the locked PWM value controlled by the FW and
pwm_boost is a value between 0 and 255.

Expose this pwm_boost knob as a custom HWMON attribute.

I do not think that having pwm1_enable brings any benefit, as the pwmX_boost attributes
behave differently than pwmX attributes. I think it would be enough to document that
pwmX_boost settings will only reliably work when the custom platform profile is selected.
