From 9ca8dbcc65cfc63d6f5ef3312a33184e1d726e00 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yunhong Jiang Date: Tue, 4 Aug 2015 12:17:53 -0700 Subject: 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 Author: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior Date: Sat Jul 25 12:13:34 2015 +0200 Prepare v4.1.3-rt3 Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior We lose all the git history this way and it's not good. We should apply another opnfv project repo in future.

The LM96080 is a more recent incarnation, +it is pin and register compatible, with a few additional features not +yet supported by the driver. + +The LM80 implements one temperature sensor, two fan rotation speed sensors, +seven voltage sensors, alarms, and some miscellaneous stuff. + +Temperatures are measured in degrees Celsius. There are two sets of limits +which operate independently. When the HOT Temperature Limit is crossed, +this will cause an alarm that will be reasserted until the temperature +drops below the HOT Hysteresis. The Overtemperature Shutdown (OS) limits +should work in the same way (but this must be checked; the datasheet +is unclear about this). Measurements are guaranteed between -55 and ++125 degrees. The current temperature measurement has a resolution of +0.0625 degrees; the limits have a resolution of 1 degree. + +Fan rotation speeds are reported in RPM (rotations per minute). An alarm is +triggered if the rotation speed has dropped below a programmable limit. Fan +readings can be divided by a programmable divider (1, 2, 4 or 8) to give +the readings more range or accuracy. Not all RPM values can accurately be +represented, so some rounding is done. With a divider of 2, the lowest +representable value is around 2600 RPM. + +Voltage sensors (also known as IN sensors) report their values in volts. +An alarm is triggered if the voltage has crossed a programmable minimum +or maximum limit. Note that minimum in this case always means 'closest to +zero'; this is important for negative voltage measurements. All voltage +inputs can measure voltages between 0 and 2.55 volts, with a resolution +of 0.01 volt. + +If an alarm triggers, it will remain triggered until the hardware register +is read at least once. This means that the cause for the alarm may +already have disappeared! Note that in the current implementation, all +hardware registers are read whenever any data is read (unless it is less +than 2.0 seconds since the last update). This means that you can easily +miss once-only alarms. + +The LM80 only updates its values each 1.5 seconds; reading it more often +will do no harm, but will return 'old' values. -- cgit 1.2.3-korg
