As I already posted to the list I'm working on a driver for the uGuru2. The driver is done (waiting for feedback from testers) but I still need todo userspace. Since the uGuru2 driver is going to be 2.6 only and since 2.6 has a clear API/ABI between userspace and the kernel for hwmon chips I was thinking about adding code to libsensors for generic 2.6 support. The idea is to write a piece of code which will come into action only if libsensors doesn't have a chip definition for a found chip and libsensors is running on a 2.6 kernel. This piece of code would then fill a dynamicly allocated structure describing the unknown chip, using the same structure as for known chips. Does this sound like a plan? With this in place we no longer need to write support for every new 2.6 hwmon driver, actually if this goes in I would like to see explicit support for the uGuru (1) be removed, since this generic code should do just as good of a job. Does this sound like a plan (for 2.6 only drivers) ? Or are you planning on porting this driver to 2.4? Regards, Hans
