+# rpipmic
+
+Tool to report PMIC events on Raspberry Pi 5 family devices (Pi 5, Pi 500,
+CM5).
+
+The bootloader clears fatal PMIC events at power on, so the reason for the
+last PMIC reset is read from /proc/device-tree/chosen/power/power_reset.
+Events latched since boot are read from PMIC register 0x3018 using vcgencmd,
+if available.
