I could modify the driver to update the sensor values periodically with a timer, though the msleep forces me to push the actual work of reading the sensor values into a workqueue. This has the effect of making sysfs reads nearly instantaneous though I don't know if sleeping for a second in the system workqueue is agreeable. It might be useful to create a separate workqueue for slow sensor chip reads. Ugh, the patch is buggy, so I'll have to hack on it a little longer. --D -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
