15 To instantiate this driver on an AMD CPU with SB-TSI
16 support, the i2c bus number would be the bus connected from the board
17 management controller (BMC) to the CPU. The i2c address is specified in
18 Section 6.3.1 of the SoC register reference: The SB-TSI address is normally
19 98h for socket 0 and 90h for socket 1, but it could vary based on hardware
20 address select pins.

34Description
35-----------
36
37The SBI temperature sensor interface (SB-TSI) is an emulation of the software
38and physical interface of a typical 8-pin remote temperature sensor (RTS) on
39AMD SoCs. It implements one temperature sensor with readings and limit
40registers encode the temperature in increments of 0.125 from 0 to 255.875.
41Limits can be set through the writable thresholds, and if reached will trigger
42corresponding alert signals.
