Re: Edison thermal_zones - clarification/documentation

I used the following script which shows the devices;

for i in /sys/class/thermal/*/temp

do

echo $i

cat $i

echo "---------------"

done

My result is:

/sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp

cat: read error: Invalid argument

---------------

/sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone1/temp

17171

---------------

/sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone2/temp

cat: read error: Invalid argument

---------------

/sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone3/temp

38000

---------------

/sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone4/temp

35000

I believe it is a good idea to add temp watching support into the "pwr_button_handler" daemon to log errors and shutdown if it gets too hot. I can do this but first I need to learn what the different zones are:

zone1: I believe the outside temp which could be 17 celsius here.

zone2 and zone3 I have no idea but they are 38 and 35 celsius which is little.
