+Kernel driver Ampere(R)'s Altra(R) SMpro hwmon
+==============================================
+
+Supported chips:
+
+ * Ampere(R) Altra(R)
+
+ Prefix: ``smpro``
+
+ Reference: `Altra SoC BMC Interface Specification`
+
+Author: Thu Nguyen <thu@os.amperecomputing.com>
+
+Description
+-----------
+The smpro-hwmon driver supports hardware monitoring for Ampere(R) Altra(R)
+SoCs based on the SMpro co-processor (SMpro). The following sensor metrics
+are supported by the driver:
+
+ * temperature
+ * voltage
+ * current
+ * power
+
+The interface provides the registers to query the various sensors and
+their values which are then exported to userspace by this driver.
+
+Usage Notes
+-----------
+
+The driver creates at least two sysfs files for each sensor.
+
+* ``<sensor_type><idx>_label`` reports the sensor label.
+* ``<sensor_type><idx>_input`` returns the sensor value.
+
+The sysfs files are allocated in the SMpro rootfs folder, with one root
+directory for each instance.
+
+When the SoC is turned off, the driver will fail to read registers and
+return ``-ENXIO``.
+
+Sysfs entries
+-------------
+
+The following sysfs files are supported:
