Naming and data format standards for sysfs files
|
|
================================================
|
|
|
|
The libsensors library offers an interface to the raw sensors data
|
|
through the sysfs interface. Since lm-sensors 3.0.0, libsensors is
|
|
completely chip-independent. It assumes that all the kernel drivers
|
|
implement the standard sysfs interface described in this document.
|
|
This makes adding or updating support for any given chip very easy, as
|
|
libsensors, and applications using it, do not need to be modified.
|
|
This is a major improvement compared to lm-sensors 2.
|
|
|
|
Note that motherboards vary widely in the connections to sensor chips.
|
|
There is no standard that ensures, for example, that the second
|
|
temperature sensor is connected to the CPU, or that the second fan is on
|
|
the CPU. Also, some values reported by the chips need some computation
|
|
before they make full sense. For example, most chips can only measure
|
|
voltages between 0 and +4V. Other voltages are scaled back into that
|
|
range using external resistors. Since the values of these resistors
|
|
can change from motherboard to motherboard, the conversions cannot be
|
|
hard coded into the driver and have to be done in user space.
|
|
|
|
For this reason, even if we aim at a chip-independent libsensors, it will
|
|
still require a configuration file (e.g. /etc/sensors.conf) for proper
|
|
values conversion, labeling of inputs and hiding of unused inputs.
|
|
|
|
An alternative method that some programs use is to access the sysfs
|
|
files directly. This document briefly describes the standards that the
|
|
drivers follow, so that an application program can scan for entries and
|
|
access this data in a simple and consistent way. That said, such programs
|
|
will have to implement conversion, labeling and hiding of inputs. For
|
|
this reason, it is still not recommended to bypass the library.
|
|
|
|
Each chip gets its own directory in the sysfs /sys/devices tree. To
|
|
find all sensor chips, it is easier to follow the device symlinks from
|
|
`/sys/class/hwmon/hwmon*`.
|
|
|
|
Up to lm-sensors 3.0.0, libsensors looks for hardware monitoring attributes
|
|
in the "physical" device directory. Since lm-sensors 3.0.1, attributes found
|
|
in the hwmon "class" device directory are also supported. Complex drivers
|
|
(e.g. drivers for multifunction chips) may want to use this possibility to
|
|
avoid namespace pollution. The only drawback will be that older versions of
|
|
libsensors won't support the driver in question.
|
|
|
|
All sysfs values are fixed point numbers.
|
|
|
|
There is only one value per file, unlike the older /proc specification.
|
|
The common scheme for files naming is: <type><number>_<item>. Usual
|
|
types for sensor chips are "in" (voltage), "temp" (temperature) and
|
|
"fan" (fan). Usual items are "input" (measured value), "max" (high
|
|
threshold, "min" (low threshold). Numbering usually starts from 1,
|
|
except for voltages which start from 0 (because most data sheets use
|
|
this). A number is always used for elements that can be present more
|
|
than once, even if there is a single element of the given type on the
|
|
specific chip. Other files do not refer to a specific element, so
|
|
they have a simple name, and no number.
|
|
|
|
Alarms are direct indications read from the chips. The drivers do NOT
|
|
make comparisons of readings to thresholds. This allows violations
|
|
between readings to be caught and alarmed. The exact definition of an
|
|
alarm (for example, whether a threshold must be met or must be exceeded
|
|
to cause an alarm) is chip-dependent.
|
|
|
|
When setting values of hwmon sysfs attributes, the string representation of
|
|
the desired value must be written, note that strings which are not a number
|
|
are interpreted as 0! For more on how written strings are interpreted see the
|
|
"sysfs attribute writes interpretation" section at the end of this file.

RW
|
|
|
|
If voltage drops to or below this limit, the system may
|

|
least, it should report a fault.

Unit: millivolt
|

RO
|
|
|
|
Voltage measured on the chip pin.
|
|
|
|
Actual voltage depends on the scaling resistors on the
|
|
motherboard, as recommended in the chip datasheet.
|
|
|
|
This varies by chip and by motherboard.
|
|
Because of this variation, values are generally NOT scaled
|
|
by the chip driver, and must be done by the application.
|
|
However, some drivers (notably lm87 and via686a)
|
|
do scale, because of internal resistors built into a chip.
|
|
These drivers will output the actual voltage. Rule of
|
|
thumb: drivers should report the voltage values at the
|
|
"pins" of the chip.

Number of tachometer pulses per fan revolution.
|
|

Integer value, typically between 1 and 4.
|

RW
|
|
|

This value is a characteristic of the fan connected to the

device's input, so it has to be set in accordance with the fan
|
|
model.
|
|
|
|
Should only be created if the chip has a register to configure

the number of pulses. In the absence of such a register (and

`pwm[1-*]_auto_channels_temp`

Select which temperature channels affect this PWM output in

Bitfield, 1 is temp1, 2 is temp2, 4 is temp3 etc...

`pwm[1-*]_auto_point[1-*]_pwm` / `pwm[1-*]_auto_point[1-*]_temp` / `pwm[1-*]_auto_point[1-*]_temp_hyst`
|
|
Define the PWM vs temperature curve.
|
|
|
|
Number of trip points is chip-dependent. Use this for chips
|
|
which associate trip points to PWM output channels.
|
|

`temp[1-*]_auto_point[1-*]_pwm` / `temp[1-*]_auto_point[1-*]_temp` / `temp[1-*]_auto_point[1-*]_temp_hyst`
|
|
Define the PWM vs temperature curve.
|
|
|
|
Number of trip points is chip-dependent. Use this for chips
|
|
which associate trip points to temperature channels.
|
|
|
|
RW
|
|
|
|
There is a third case where trip points are associated to both PWM output
|
|
channels and temperature channels: the PWM values are associated to PWM
|
|
output channels while the temperature values are associated to temperature
|
|
channels. In that case, the result is determined by the mapping between
|
|
temperature inputs and PWM outputs. When several temperature inputs are
|
|
mapped to a given PWM output, this leads to several candidate PWM values.
|
|
The actual result is up to the chip, but in general the highest candidate
|
|
value (fastest fan speed) wins.

Some chips measure temperature using external thermistors and an ADC, and
|
|
report the temperature measurement as a voltage. Converting this voltage
|
|
back to a temperature (or the other way around for limits) requires
|
|
mathematical functions not available in the kernel, so the conversion
|
|
must occur in user space. For these chips, all temp* files described
|
|
above should contain values expressed in millivolt instead of millidegree
|
|
Celsius. In other words, such temperature channels are handled as voltage
|
|
channels by the driver.

Each channel or limit may have an associated alarm file, containing a

Usually a given chip will either use channel-related alarms, or

limit-related alarms, not both. The driver should just reflect the hardware

implementation.

Old drivers provided a different, non-standard interface to alarms and

|
beeps. These interface files are deprecated, but will be kept around
|
|
for compatibility reasons:
|
|
|
|
`alarms`
|
|
Alarm bitmask.
|
|
|
|
RO
|
|
|
|
Integer representation of one to four bytes.
|
|
|
|
A '1' bit means an alarm.
|
|
|
|
Chips should be programmed for 'comparator' mode so that
|
|
the alarm will 'come back' after you read the register
|
|
if it is still valid.
|
|
|
|
Generally a direct representation of a chip's internal
|
|
alarm registers; there is no standard for the position
|
|
of individual bits. For this reason, the use of this
|
|
interface file for new drivers is discouraged. Use
|
|
`individual *_alarm` and `*_fault` files instead.
|
|
Bits are defined in kernel/include/sensors.h.
|
|
|
|
`beep_mask`
|
|
Bitmask for beep.

Same format as 'alarms' with the same bit locations,

`*_beep` files instead.

Average sample configuration

|
|

|
|
sysfs attribute writes interpretation
|
|
-------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
hwmon sysfs attributes always contain numbers, so the first thing to do is to
|
|
convert the input to a number, there are 2 ways todo this depending whether
|
|
the number can be negative or not::
|
|
|
|
unsigned long u = simple_strtoul(buf, NULL, 10);
|
|
long s = simple_strtol(buf, NULL, 10);
|
|
|
|
With buf being the buffer with the user input being passed by the kernel.
|
|
Notice that we do not use the second argument of strto[u]l, and thus cannot
|
|
tell when 0 is returned, if this was really 0 or is caused by invalid input.
|
|
This is done deliberately as checking this everywhere would add a lot of
|
|
code to the kernel.
|
|
|
|
Notice that it is important to always store the converted value in an
|
|
unsigned long or long, so that no wrap around can happen before any further
|
|
checking.
|
|
|
|
After the input string is converted to an (unsigned) long, the value should be
|
|
checked if its acceptable. Be careful with further conversions on the value
|
|
before checking it for validity, as these conversions could still cause a wrap
|
|
around before the check. For example do not multiply the result, and only
|
|
add/subtract if it has been divided before the add/subtract.
|
|
|
|
What to do if a value is found to be invalid, depends on the type of the
|
|
sysfs attribute that is being set. If it is a continuous setting like a
|
|
tempX_max or inX_max attribute, then the value should be clamped to its
|
|
limits using clamp_val(value, min_limit, max_limit). If it is not continuous
|
|
like for example a tempX_type, then when an invalid value is written,
|
|
-EINVAL should be returned.
|
|
|
|
Example1, temp1_max, register is a signed 8 bit value (-128 - 127 degrees)::
|
|
|
|
long v = simple_strtol(buf, NULL, 10) / 1000;
|
|
v = clamp_val(v, -128, 127);
|
|
/* write v to register */
|
|
|
|
Example2, fan divider setting, valid values 2, 4 and 8::
|
|
|
|
unsigned long v = simple_strtoul(buf, NULL, 10);
|
|
|
|
switch (v) {
|
|
case 2: v = 1; break;
|
|
case 4: v = 2; break;
|
|
case 8: v = 3; break;
|
|
default:
|
|
return -EINVAL;
|
|
}
|
|
/* write v to register */
