+OPAL_SENSOR_READ
+----------------
+
+The OPAL sensor call reads a sensor data using a unique handler to
+identity the targeted sensor.
+
+
+This call can be asynchronous, when a message needs to be sent to a
+service processor for example. In this case, the call will return
+OPAL_ASYNC_COMPLETION and the token parameter will be used to wait for
+the completion of the request.
+
+
+Parameters:
+ uint32_t sensor_handler
+ int token
+ uint32_t *sensor_data
+
+
+Return values:
+ OPAL_SUCCESS
+ OPAL_PARAMETER - invalid sensor handler
+
+in case of communication with the FSP on IBM systems
+
+ OPAL_ASYNC_COMPLETION - a request was sent and an async completion will
+ be triggered with the @token argument
+ OPAL_PARTIAL - the request completed but the data returned is invalid
+ OPAL_BUSY_EVENT - a previous request is still pending
+ OPAL_NO_MEM - allocation failed
+ OPAL_INTERNAL_ERROR - communication failure with the FSP
+ OPAL_HARDWARE - FSP is not available
