From 2d2e148a237f790a19e2faa6d8387cf254010358 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Guenter Roeck Date: Wed, 2 Mar 2011 15:19:35 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] hwmon: Add tachometer pulses per fan revolution to sysfs ABI Some fan control chips support a configuration register to set the number of tachometer pulses per fan revolution. Add an ABI attribute to support this configuration register.
