This patchset adds support for hardware monitoring features of PMBus devices. --- I did not get significant feedback from the previous submission, so here it is again with extended audience. Only change since v3 is a minor fix in Kconfig. I understand this is a large patch set. Question is if it would make sense to create its own subdirectory for pmbus devices, and to split pmbus.c and pmbus_core.c into more files. I'd be more than happy to do that if it helps for the review process. There is still some work to be done. Fan support is only rudimentary, and the PHASE command is still not supported. However, the driver is now stable enough to be useful, so it is worth going ahead. v4 changes: - Fixed PMBUS entry in Kconfig v3 changes: Tested with real hardware (bmr453, bmr454, ltc2978, max8688, max16064, max34441). Changes are too numerous to count. Lots of bug fixes. Code was completely rearranged to permit addition of chips without having to modify the core pmbus driver. Split main driver into pmbus_core.c for core support and pmbus.c as front-end driver to support generic PMBus chips. Support for additional chips can now be added by writing small front-end drivers which basically describe chip capabilities. v2 changes: - Calculate maximum number of attributes / sensors / booleans / labels instead of using defines - Increased maximum number of supported pages to the PMBus maximum of 32. - Replaced most fixed size arrays with dynamically allocated arrays/structures. - Added comments and clarifications - Renamed local defines to start with PB_ or PMBUS_ prefix - Removed pages module parameter. Replaced with code to auto-detect the number of supported pages. - Split probe code into several functions to make it better readable - Replaced _fault attributes with _lcrit_alarm and _crit_alarm attributes - Several other minor changes to address review feedback - PMBus emulator: Fixed fault status detection code. Also use more reasonable power limits (eg 200W instead of 2kW). _______________________________________________ lm-sensors mailing list lm-sensors@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.lm-sensors.org/mailman/listinfo/lm-sensors
