Hello,
Please read phosphor-pid-control documentation:
https://github.com/openbmc/phosphor-pid-control
https://github.com/openbmc/phosphor-pid-control/blob/master/configure.md
https://github.com/openbmc/phosphor-pid-control/blob/master/tuning.md
https://github.com/openbmc/phosphor-pid-control/tree/master/examples
Keep in mind that there are two different ways to configure phosphor-
pid-control: statically with JSON config files and dynamically with
DBUS (generally, using EntityManager JSON configuration) and same
parameters with this two ways mostly have different names.
The way you want to use is generally depend on either you use EM for
your platform or not.
