[RFC PATCH 3/3] hwmon: (hwmon-vid) Determine vrm during initialization, and add vrm module parameter

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The vrm value is system-wide and only needs to be calculated once. Do it when
the module is loaded. Provide a module parameter to enable overwriting the
default value in case it is wrong or can not be calculated.

Use the internal value when calculating the VID voltage; ignore the VRM
parameter passed in vid_from_reg(). This will enable us to make the vrm
attribute in individual drivers read-only or to drop it entirely.
