    ACPI: fan: Add additional attributes for fine grain control · f1197343
    Srinivas Pandruvada 提交于
    Add additional attributes, which helps in implementing algorithm in
    the user space to optimize fan control. These attributes are presented
    in the same directory as the existing performance state attributes.
    
    Additional attributes:
    
    1. Support of fine grain control
    Publish support of presence of fine grain control so that fan speed
    can be tuned correctly. This attribute is called "fine_grain_control".
    
    2. fan speed
    Publish the actual fan rpm in sysfs. Knowing fan rpm is helpful to
    reduce noise level and use passive control instead. Also fan performance
    may not be same over time, so the same control value may not be enough
    to run the fan at a speed. So a feedback value of speed is helpful. This
    sysfs attribute is called "fan_speed_rpm".
