What: /sys/class/hwmon/hwmonX/name Description: The chip name. This should be a short, lowercase string, not containing whitespace, dashes, or the wildcard character '*'. This attribute represents the chip name. It is the only mandatory attribute. I2C devices get this attribute created automatically.

	RO

What: /sys/class/hwmon/hwmonX/label Description: A descriptive label that allows to uniquely identify a device within the system. The contents of the label are free-form.

	RO

What: /sys/class/hwmon/hwmonX/update_interval Description: The interval at which the chip will update readings. Unit: millisecond

	RW

	Some devices have a variable update rate or interval.
	This attribute can be used to change it to the desired value.

What: /sys/class/hwmon/hwmonX/inY_min Description: Voltage min value.

	Unit: millivolt

	RW

What: /sys/class/hwmon/hwmonX/inY_lcrit Description: Voltage critical min value.

	Unit: millivolt

	RW

	If voltage drops to or below this limit, the system may
	take drastic action such as power down or reset. At the very
	least, it should report a fault.

What: /sys/class/hwmon/hwmonX/inY_max Description: Voltage max value.

	Unit: millivolt

	RW

What: /sys/class/hwmon/hwmonX/inY_crit Description: Voltage critical max value.

	Unit: millivolt

	RW

	If voltage reaches or exceeds this limit, the system may
	take drastic action such as power down or reset. At the very
	least, it should report a fault.

What: /sys/class/hwmon/hwmonX/inY_input Description: Voltage input value.

	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.

What: /sys/class/hwmon/hwmonX/inY_average Description: Average voltage

	Unit: millivolt

	RO

What: /sys/class/hwmon/hwmonX/inY_lowest Description: Historical minimum voltage

	WO

What: /sys/class/hwmon/hwmonX/inY_label Description: Suggested voltage channel label.

	Text string

	Should only be created if the driver has hints about what
	this voltage channel is being used for, and user-space
	doesn't. In all other cases, the label is provided by
	user-space.

	RO

What: /sys/class/hwmon/hwmonX/inY_enable Description: Enable or disable the sensors.

	When disabled the sensor read will return -ENODATA.

	- 1: Enable
	- 0: Disable

	Unit: millivolt

	RO

	Not always correct.

What: /sys/class/hwmon/hwmonX/vrm Description: Voltage Regulator Module version number.

	RW (but changing it should no more be necessary)

	Originally the VRM standard version multiplied by 10, but now
	an arbitrary number, as not all standards have a version
	number.

	Affects the way the driver calculates the CPU core reference
	voltage from the vid pins.

What: /sys/class/hwmon/hwmonX/fanY_div Description: Fan divisor.

	Integer value in powers of two (1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128).

	RW

	Some chips only support values 1, 2, 4 and 8.
	Note that this is actually an internal clock divisor, which
	affects the measurable speed range, not the read value.

What: /sys/class/hwmon/hwmonX/fanY_pulses Description: 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
	thus attribute) the value assumed by all devices is 2 pulses
	per fan revolution.

What: /sys/class/hwmon/hwmonX/fanY_target Description: Desired fan speed

	- 2+: automatic fan speed control enabled

	Check individual chip documentation files for automatic mode
	details.
