I think he wants the attribute to be named according to the properties
in this document:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/hwmon/sysfs-interface. I guess
the attribute would then map to fan1_input, though I'm not sure if
that's 100% correct either since this could technically be attached to
something other than a fan. But I would think in practice that's not a
big concern.
Guenter,
Please correct me as well if I'm wrong.
Thank you,
Mikko
