Hi, the current hwmon sysfs API does not specify critical or fault limits for voltage and current readings. Many recent power controller/monitoring chips have support for such limits in addition to alarm limits. Typical action, when a the critical or fault limit is reached, may be a board reset or power shutdown, or to report the fault condition. Examples for chips supporting critical/fault limits are SMM665 and variants as well as many PMBus devices, such as MAX8688, MAX16064, LTC2978, and others. I think it would make sense to add critical/fault limits to the hwmon sysfs API, to be able to report those limits if supported by a chip. Any thoughts on this ?
