Description
-----------
This driver implements a generic PECI hwmon feature which provides
Temperature sensor on DIMM readings that are accessible via the processor PECI interface.
All temperature values are given in millidegree Celsius and will be measurable
only when the target CPU is powered on.
Sysfs interface
-------------------
======================= =======================================================
temp[N]_label Provides string "DIMM CI", where C is DIMM channel and
I is DIMM index of the populated DIMM.
temp[N]_input Provides current temperature of the populated DIMM.
temp[N]_max Provides thermal control temperature of the DIMM.
temp[N]_crit Provides shutdown temperature of the DIMM.
======================= =======================================================
Note:
DIMM temperature attributes will appear when the client CPU's BIOS
completes memory training and testing.
