The driver -will refuse to load on these revisions unless you specify the "force=1" -module parameter. - -Due to technical reasons, the driver can detect only the mainboard's -socket type, not the processor's actual capabilities. Therefore, if you -are using an AM3 processor on an AM2+ mainboard, you can safely use the -"force=1" parameter. - -There is one temperature measurement value, available as temp1_input in -sysfs. It is measured in degrees Celsius with a resolution of 1/8th degree. -Please note that it is defined as a relative value; to quote the AMD manual: - - Tctl is the processor temperature control value, used by the platform to - control cooling systems. Tctl is a non-physical temperature on an - arbitrary scale measured in degrees. It does _not_ represent an actual - physical temperature like die or case temperature. Instead, it specifies - the processor temperature relative to the point at which the system must - supply the maximum cooling for the processor's specified maximum case - temperature and maximum thermal power dissipation. - -The maximum value for Tctl is available in the file temp1_max. - -If the BIOS has enabled hardware temperature control, the threshold at -which the processor will throttle itself to avoid damage is available in -temp1_crit and temp1_crit_hyst. |
