The DIR-685 can now exploit the thermal zone added by the drive temperature sensor inside the hard drive. We have patched the libata subsystem to assign the device nodes properly to the SCSI devices and this is what the drivetemp driver will use to populate the sensor and the thermal zone, so pick that up into the thermal zone and let this control the fan. The hardware lacks an embedded temperature sensor so the D-Link vendor firmware uses this method to control the temperature of the NAS enclosure using the thermal sensor inside the hard drive. The drive temperature trigger points to be used comes from the vendor firmware. Signed-off-by: Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@linaro.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
