14 | Description | |
15 | ----------- | |
16 | ||
17 | Every ST-Ericsson Ux500 SOC consists of both ABx500 and DBx500 physically, | |
18 | this is kernel hwmon driver for ABx500. | |
19 | ||
20 | There are some GPADCs inside ABx500 which are designed for connecting to | |
21 | thermal sensors, and there is also a thermal sensor inside ABx500 too, which | |
22 | raises interrupt when critical temperature reached. | |
23 | ||
24 | This abx500 is a common layer which can monitor all of the sensors, every | |
25 | specific abx500 chip has its special configurations in its own file, e.g. some | |
26 | sensors can be configured invisible if they are not available on that chip, and | |
27 | the corresponding gpadc_addr should be set to 0, thus this sensor won't be | |
28 | polled. |
