+ * Intel Xeon E5/E7 v3 server processors
+ Intel Xeon E5-14xx v3 family
+ Intel Xeon E5-24xx v3 family
+ Intel Xeon E5-16xx v3 family
+ Intel Xeon E5-26xx v3 family
+ Intel Xeon E5-46xx v3 family
+ Intel Xeon E7-48xx v3 family
+ Intel Xeon E7-88xx v3 family
+ * Intel Xeon E5/E7 v4 server processors

+ Intel Xeon E5-26xx v4 family
+ Intel Xeon E5-46xx v4 family
+ Intel Xeon E7-48xx v4 family
+ Intel Xeon E7-88xx v4 family
+ * Intel Xeon Scalable server processors
+ Intel Xeon Bronze family
+ Intel Xeon Silver family
+ Intel Xeon Gold family
+ Intel Xeon Platinum family
+ Addresses scanned: PECI client address 0x30 - 0x37

+
+Description
+-----------
+
+This driver implements a generic PECI hwmon feature which provides Digital
+Thermal Sensor (DTS) thermal readings of the CPU package and CPU cores that are
+accessible using the PECI Client Command Suite via the processor PECI client.
+
+All temperature values are given in millidegree Celsius and will be measurable
+only when the target CPU is powered on.
+
+sysfs attributes
+----------------
+
+temp1_label "Die"
+temp1_input Provides current die temperature of the CPU package.
+temp1_max Provides thermal control temperature of the CPU package
+ which is also known as Tcontrol.
+temp1_crit Provides shutdown temperature of the CPU package which
+ is also known as the maximum processor junction
+ temperature, Tjmax or Tprochot.
+temp1_crit_hyst Provides the hysteresis value from Tcontrol to Tjmax of
+ the CPU package.
+
+temp2_label "Tcontrol"
+temp2_input Provides current Tcontrol temperature of the CPU
+ package which is also known as Fan Temperature target.
+ Indicates the relative value from thermal monitor trip
+ temperature at which fans should be engaged.
+temp2_crit Provides Tcontrol critical value of the CPU package
+ which is same to Tjmax.
+
+temp3_label "Tthrottle"
+temp3_input Provides current Tthrottle temperature of the CPU
+ package. Used for throttling temperature. If this value
+ is allowed and lower than Tjmax - the throttle will
+ occur and reported at lower than Tjmax.
+
+temp4_label "Tjmax"
+temp4_input Provides the maximum junction temperature, Tjmax of the
+ CPU package.
+
+temp[5-*]_label Provides string "Core X", where X is resolved core
+ number.
+temp[5-*]_input Provides current temperature of each core.
+temp[5-*]_max Provides thermal control temperature of the core.
+temp[5-*]_crit Provides shutdown temperature of the core.
+temp[5-*]_crit_hyst Provides the hysteresis value from Tcontrol to Tjmax of
+ the core.

+Description
+-----------
+
+This driver implements a generic PECI hwmon feature which provides Digital
+Thermal Sensor (DTS) thermal readings of DIMM components that are accessible
+using the PECI Client Command Suite via the processor PECI client.
+
+All temperature values are given in millidegree Celsius and will be measurable
+only when the target CPU is powered on.
+
+sysfs attributes
+----------------
+
+temp[N]_label Provides string "DIMM CI", where C is DIMM channel and
+ I is DIMM index of the populated DIMM.
+temp[N]_input Provides current temperature of the populated DIMM.
+
+Note:
+ DIMM temperature attributes will appear when the client CPU's BIOS
+ completes memory training and testing.
