Content-Disposition: inline; filename=hwmon-lm90-02-add-pec-adm1032.patch
Add PEC support to the lm90 driver. Only the ADM1032 chip supports it,
and in a rather tricky way, which is why this patch comes with
documentation reinforcements. At least, this demonstrates that the new
PEC support logic in i2c-core can properly deal with chips with partial
PEC support.
As enabling PEC causes a significant performance drop, it can be
disabled through a sysfs file (unsurprisingly named "pec").

+PEC Support
+-----------
+
+The ADM1032 is the only chip of the family which supports PEC. It does
+not support PEC on all transactions though, so some care must be taken.
+
+When reading a register value, the PEC byte is computed and sent by the
+ADM1032 chip. However, in the case of a combined transaction (SMBus Read
+Byte), the ADM1032 computes the CRC value over only the second half of
+the message rather than its entirety, because it thinks the first half
+of the message belongs to a different transaction. As a result, the CRC
+value differs from what the SMBus master expects, and all reads fail.
+
+For this reason, the lm90 driver will enable PEC for the ADM1032 only if
+the bus supports the SMBus Send Byte and Receive Byte transaction types.
+These transactions will be used to read register values, instead of
+SMBus Read Byte, and PEC will work properly.
+
+Additionally, the ADM1032 doesn't support SMBus Send Byte with PEC.
+Instead, it will try to write the PEC value to the register (because the
+SMBus Send Byte transaction with PEC is similar to a Write Byte transaction
+without PEC), which is not what we want. Thus, PEC is explicitely disabled
+on SMBus Send Byte transactions in the lm90 driver.
+
+PEC on byte data transactions represents a significant increase in bandwidth
+usage (+33% for writes, +25% for reads) in normal conditions. With the need
+to use two SMBus transaction for reads, this overhead jumps to +50%. Worse,
+two transactions will typically mean twice as much delay waiting for
+transaction completion, effectively doubling the register cache refresh time.
+I guess reliability comes at a price, but it's quite expensive this time.
+
+So, as not everyone might enjoy the slowdown, PEC can be disabled through
+sysfs. Just write 0 to the "pec" file and PEC will be disabled. Write 1
+to that file to enable PEC again.
