I'd say it is enough to know it is an average, you don't need to specify HOW it is averaged. But there is a real need to export both instantaneous and averaged values in power supplies/power sources, so we should have a standard way to do so in hwmon, and power_supply class should use it (or the opposite, it doesn't matter, as long as everyone does it the same way). > It would be nice if the power meter interface uses the same > conventions as the power supply interface, since the former is > essentially a subset of the latter.
