Merge tag 'hwmon-for-v5.2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/groeck/linux-staging
Pull hwmon updates from Guenter Roeck:
- Add driver for Intersil ISL68137 PWM Controller
- Add driver for Lochnagar 2
- Add driver for Infineon IR38064 Voltage Regulator
- Add support for TMP75B to lm75 driver
- Convert documentation to ReST format
- Use request_muxed_region for Super-IO accesses in several drivers
- Add 'samples' attribute to ABI, and start using it
- Add support for custom sysfs attributes to pmbus drivers (used in
ISL68137 driver)
- Introduce HWMON_CHANNEL_INFO macro
- Automated changes:
- Use permission specific [SENSOR_][DEVICE_]ATTR variants
- Fix build warnings due to unused of_device_id structures
- Use HWMON_CHANNEL_INFO macro
- Various minor improvements and fixes

At the end of the transfer, the 11-bit 2's +complement digital temperature (sent via the SIO line), is available in the +driver for interpretation. This driver makes use of the kernel's in-core +SPI support. + +As a real (in-tree) example of this "SPI protocol driver" interfacing +with a "SPI master controller driver", see drivers/spi/spi_lm70llp.c +and its associated documentation. + +The LM74 and TMP121/TMP122/TMP123/TMP124 are very similar; main difference is +13-bit temperature data (0.0625 degrees celsius resolution). + +The TMP122/TMP124 also feature configurable temperature thresholds. + +The LM71 is also very similar; main difference is 14-bit temperature +data (0.03125 degrees celsius resolution). + +Thanks to +--------- +Jean Delvare <jdelvare@suse.de> for mentoring the hwmon-side driver +development. |
