Kernel Driver IBMPOWERNV
========================
Supported systems:
* Any recent IBM P servers based on POWERNV platform
Author: Neelesh Gupta
Description
-----------
This driver implements reading the platform sensors data like temperature/fan/
voltage/power for 'POWERNV' platform.
The driver uses the platform device infrastructure. It probes the device tree
for sensor devices during the __init phase and registers them with the 'hwmon'.
'hwmon' populates the 'sysfs' tree having attribute files, each for a given
sensor type and its attribute data.
All the nodes in the DT appear under "/ibm,opal/sensors" and each valid node in
the DT maps to an attribute file in 'sysfs'. The node exports unique 'sensor-id'
which the driver uses to make an OPAL call to the firmware.
Usage notes
-----------
The driver is built statically with the kernel by enabling the config
CONFIG_SENSORS_IBMPOWERNV. It can also be built as module 'ibmpowernv'.
Sysfs attributes
----------------
======================= =======================================================
fanX_input Measured RPM value.
fanX_min Threshold RPM for alert generation.
fanX_fault - 0: No fail condition
- 1: Failing fan
tempX_input Measured ambient temperature.
tempX_max Threshold ambient temperature for alert generation.
tempX_highest Historical maximum temperature
tempX_lowest Historical minimum temperature
tempX_enable Enable/disable all temperature sensors belonging to the
sub-group. In POWER9, this attribute corresponds to
each OCC. Using this attribute each OCC can be asked to
disable/enable all of its temperature sensors.
- 1: Enable
- 0: Disable
inX_input Measured power supply voltage (millivolt)
inX_fault - 0: No fail condition.
- 1: Failing power supply.
inX_highest Historical maximum voltage
inX_lowest Historical minimum voltage
inX_enable Enable/disable all voltage sensors belonging to the
sub-group. In POWER9, this attribute corresponds to
each OCC. Using this attribute each OCC can be asked to
disable/enable all of its voltage sensors.
- 1: Enable
- 0: Disable
powerX_input Power consumption (microWatt)
powerX_input_highest Historical maximum power
powerX_input_lowest Historical minimum power
powerX_enable Enable/disable all power sensors belonging to the
sub-group. In POWER9, this attribute corresponds to
each OCC. Using this attribute each OCC can be asked to
disable/enable all of its power sensors.
- 1: Enable
- 0: Disable
currX_input Measured current (milliampere)
currX_highest Historical maximum current
currX_lowest Historical minimum current
currX_enable Enable/disable all current sensors belonging to the
sub-group. In POWER9, this attribute corresponds to
each OCC. Using this attribute each OCC can be asked to
disable/enable all of its current sensors.
- 1: Enable
- 0: Disable
energyX_input Cumulative energy (microJoule)
