Congratulations Guenter, you just volunteered to convert all LPC-based hwmon drivers to the MFD framework! :D Seriously, there can be two reasons why VID is read only once: * Old driver, predating frequency-scalable CPUs, and having never been updated. Not sure if there are such drivers remaining. * LPC-based device with VID read from configuration space. Without proper locking this is dangerous, so we only do it once at driver load time. The only proper fix is to migrate the driver(s) to MFD first. Good luck, -- Jean Delvare _______________________________________________ lm-sensors mailing list lm-sensors@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.lm-sensors.org/mailman/listinfo/lm-sensors
