Documentation missing.

+config SENSORS_SG2042_HWMON_MCU

"SENSORS" and "HWMON" is redundant. Yes, I know, others do it
as well, but that doesn't make it less redundant.


OK, I will short it.

+static DEVICE_ATTR_RO(board_type);
+static DEVICE_ATTR_RO(firmware_version);
+static DEVICE_ATTR_RO(pcb_version);
+static DEVICE_ATTR_RO(reset_count);
+static DEVICE_ATTR_RO(uptime);
+static DEVICE_ATTR_RO(reset_reason);
+static DEVICE_ATTR_RO(mcu_type);
+static DEVICE_ATTR_RW(critical_action);

None of the above are hardware monitoring attributes. They are not
acceptable as sysfs attributes. Some of them might be acceptable
as debugfs attributes.


It are reasonable, I will move the hardware info to debugfs.

+static DEVICE_ATTR_RW(repower_temp);

For this one, I don't know what it is. If it is a temperature
limit, it should be implemented as one (for example as _emergency
limit).

Guenter

"repower_temp" is the highest temperature for SG2042 to perform
repower operation. It is not the emergency limit, but a recovery
limit when the emergency limit is reached.

For example, when emergency temperature is set to 95 and repower
temperature is set to 80. The board is off-power when it reachs
95 degree, and it will power on when the temperature is lower
than 80 degree.


That would then be the matching _hyst temperature. There is no need
to invent a non-standard attribute for it.
