A ripple counter is just a simple way of implementing a pulse frequency divider in hardware. Together with a MUX to select from different bits of the ripple counter, it provides low cost divide by 2, 4, 8, etc. So a ripple counter is the equivalent to a fan divisor and therefore I would recommend *not* to apply this patch to rename it. Keep the original fan_div name. If fscpos has a fan_ripple accessor, then *it* should be changed to fan_div, not the other way round. :v) Grant Coady wrote: >Hi all, > >The fcsher and fscpos chips have a 'ripple' prescaler of ripples >(pulses) per revolution of the fan. > >This small patch changes fscher to match fscpos and is compile tested > > >
