PVT IP-core 25consists of one temperature and four voltage sensors, which can be used to 26monitor the chip internal environment like heating, supply voltage and 27transistors performance. The driver can optionally provide the hwmon alarms 28for each sensor the PVT controller supports. The alarms functionality is made 29compile-time configurable due to the hardware interface implementation 30peculiarity, which is connected with an ability to convert data from only one 31sensor at a time. Additional limitation is that the controller performs the 32thresholds checking synchronously with the data conversion procedure. Due to 33these in order to have the hwmon alarms automatically detected the driver code 34must switch from one sensor to another, read converted data and manually check 35the threshold status bits. Depending on the measurements timeout settings 36(update_interval sysfs node value) this design may cause additional burden on 37the system performance. So in case if alarms are unnecessary in your system 38design it's recommended to have them disabled to prevent the PVT IRQs being 39periodically raised to get the data cache/alarms status up to date. By default 40in alarm-less configuration the data conversion is performed by the driver 41on demand when read operation is requested via corresponding _input-file. 42 43Temperature Monitoring 44---------------------- 45 46Temperature is measured with 10-bit resolution and reported in millidegree 47Celsius. The driver performs all the scaling by itself therefore reports true 48temperatures that don't need any user-space adjustments. While the data 49translation formulae isn't linear, which gives us non-linear discreteness, 50it's close to one, but giving a bit better accuracy for higher temperatures. 51The temperature input is mapped as follows (the last column indicates the input 52ranges):: 53 54 temp1: CPU embedded diode -48.38C - +147.438C 55 56In case if the alarms kernel config is enabled in the driver the temperature input 57has associated min and max limits which trigger an alarm when crossed. 58 59Voltage Monitoring 60------------------ 61 62The voltage inputs are also sampled with 10-bit resolution and reported in 63millivolts. But in this case the data translation formulae is linear, which 64provides a constant measurements discreteness. The data scaling is also 65performed by the driver, so returning true millivolts. The voltage inputs are 66mapped as follows (the last column indicates the input ranges):: 67 68 in0: VDD (processor core) 0.62V - 1.168V 69 in1: Low-Vt (low voltage threshold) 0.62V - 1.168V 70 in2: High-Vt (high voltage threshold) 0.62V - 1.168V 71 in3: Standard-Vt (standard voltage threshold) 0.62V - 1.168V 72 73In case if the alarms config is enabled in the driver the voltage inputs 74have associated min and max limits which trigger an alarm when crossed. 75 76Sysfs Attributes 77---------------- 78 79Following is a list of all sysfs attributes that the driver provides, their 80permissions and a short description: 81 82=============================== ======= ======================================= 83Name Perm Description 84=============================== ======= ======================================= 85update_interval RW Measurements update interval per 86 sensor. 87temp1_type RO Sensor type (always 1 as CPU embedded 88 diode). 89temp1_label RO CPU Core Temperature sensor. 90temp1_input RO Measured temperature in millidegree 91 Celsius. 92temp1_min RW Low limit for temp input. 93temp1_max RW High limit for temp input. 94temp1_min_alarm RO Temperature input alarm.
