+Kernel driver fam15h_power

+* AMD Family 15h Processors
+

+Description
+-----------
+
+This driver permits reading of registers providing power information
+of AMD Family 15h processors.
+
+For AMD Family 15h processors the following power values can be
+calculated using different processor northbridge function registers:
+
+* BasePwrWatts: Specifies in watts the maximum amount of power
+  consumed by the processor for NB and logic external to the core.
+* ProcessorPwrWatts: Specifies in watts the maximum amount of power
+  the processor can support.
+* CurrPwrWatts: Specifies in watts the current amount of power being
+  consumed by the processor.
+
+This driver provides ProcessorPwrWatts and CurrPwrWatts:
+* power1_crit (ProcessorPwrWatts)
+* power1_input (CurrPwrWatts)
+
+On multi-node processors the calculated value is for the entire
+package and not for a single node. Thus the driver creates sysfs
+attributes only for internal node0 of a multi-node processor.
