[PATCH] hwmon: (aspeed-pwm-tacho) Poll register instead of sleep

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The controller should provide an answer nearly immediately if the
fan_tach period is short.  I found through testing that the combination
of these factors improved the device driver responsiveness.

Testing: tested on quanta-q71l board with aspeed ast2400.
