Add the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as base
Import the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as OPNFV kvm base.
It's from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-rt-devel.git linux-4.1.y-rt and
the base is:
commit 0917f823c59692d751951bf5ea699a2d1e2f26a2

Prepare v4.1.3-rt3
Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de>
We lose all the git history this way and it's not good. We
should apply another opnfv project repo in future.

The temperature +sensor incorporates a band-gap type temperature sensor, +10-bit ADC, and a digital comparator with user-programmable upper +and lower limit values. + +The LM77 implements 3 limits: low (temp1_min), high (temp1_max) and +critical (temp1_crit.) It also implements an hysteresis mechanism which +applies to all 3 limits. The relative difference is stored in a single +register on the chip, which means that the relative difference between +the limit and its hysteresis is always the same for all 3 limits. + +This implementation detail implies the following: +* When setting a limit, its hysteresis will automatically follow, the + difference staying unchanged. For example, if the old critical limit + was 80 degrees C, and the hysteresis was 75 degrees C, and you change + the critical limit to 90 degrees C, then the hysteresis will + automatically change to 85 degrees C. +* All 3 hysteresis can't be set independently. We decided to make + temp1_crit_hyst writable, while temp1_min_hyst and temp1_max_hyst are + read-only. Setting temp1_crit_hyst writes the difference between + temp1_crit_hyst and temp1_crit into the chip, and the same relative + hysteresis applies automatically to the low and high limits. +* The limits should be set before the hysteresis. |
