mainloop: Add some helpful comments Added a couple helpful comments that save someone from reading the code and thinking about it to know what it does. Change-Id: Ieac770e99fbd75a42be6803ee7959aba6ad6e96a Signed-off-by: Patrick Venture <venture@google.com>
Exposes generic hwmon entries as DBus objects.
To build this package, do the following steps:
1. ./bootstrap.sh
2. ./configure ${CONFIGURE_FLAGS}
3. make
To clean the repository run `./bootstrap.sh clean`.
To enable the use of Linux features like cgroups prioritization and udev/systemd control, one instance of phosphor-hwmon is intended to be run per hwmon sysfs class instance. This requires an algorithm for selecting a stable, well-known D-Bus busname. The algorithm is <PREFIX>-<ID>.Hwmon<N> where PREFIX is an autoconf configurable prefix (BUSNAME_PREFIX, xyz.openbmc_project by default), ID is a std::hash of the /sys/devices path backing the hwmon class instance, and N is the implemented phosphor-hwmon D-Bus API version.
