The simple fact that we switched to a one file per value philosophy makes it fundamentaly different, isn't it? > The reason it's called "in_input1" instead of "in1" escapes me. Probably in order to match the above mentioned philosophy. In1 is an entity, not a value. As an entity, it has several values: measurement (here called input) and limits. I guess that having all files named after a common scheme (${entity-name}_${value-name}${N} here) is of great value when it comes to obtaining a chipset-independant library and/or user-space tools interface. That said, I would have named that file in1_input, not in_input1, because it makes it visualy obvious that all in1_* correspond to the same entity, while it isn't that obvious (to me at least) that all in_*1 values belong to a family. > One problem I ran into: > > For temp_xxx, sysfs_interface says divide by 1000 but actually it's > 100(for w83781d anyway) I knew it. See my answer to Danny's post earlier in this thread. After a quick look, the it87 driver seems to be OK. Greg, can you confirm that the retained unit it the thousandth (and not hundredth) of degree Celcius? Mark, are you using a w83781d or similar chip under 2.6.0-testX? If you do, I would like you to confirm that the hysteresis and over temperatures are swapped. -- Jean Delvare http://www.ensicaen.ismra.fr/~delvare/
