hwmon: (core) Add hwmon_max to hwmon_sensor_types enumeration

2018-02-28T16:37:57+00:00

It's useful to know the maximum types of sensor supported by hwmon framework. It can be used to allocate some data structures when sorting the monitors based on their type. This will be used by scmi hwmon support. Cc: linux-hwmon@vger.kernel.org Acked-by: Guenter Roeck Signed-off-by: Sudeep Holla

hwmon: Add missing HWMON_T_ALARM

2017-03-22T07:18:22+00:00

Unfortunately the HWMON_T_ALARM define was missing, although the associated entry was present in hwmon_temp_attributes. This is needed to convert drivers to the new interface which use channel based alarms. Signed-off-by: Peter Huewe Signed-off-by: Guenter Roeck

hwmon: (core) Rename groups parameter in API to extra_groups

2016-12-10T05:54:22+00:00

The 'groups' parameter of hwmon_device_register_with_info() and devm_hwmon_device_register_with_info() is only necessary if extra non-standard attributes need to be provided. Rename the parameter to extra_groups and clarify the documentation. Signed-off-by: Guenter Roeck

hwmon: (core) Deprecate hwmon_device_register()

2016-12-10T05:54:19+00:00

Inform the user that hwmon_device_register() is deprecated, and suggest conversion to the newest API. Also remove hwmon_device_register() from the kernel API documentation. Note that hwmon_device_register() is not marked as __deprecated() since doing so might result in build errors. Signed-off-by: Guenter Roeck

hwmon: (core) Add support for string attributes to new API

2016-12-10T05:54:16+00:00

The new API is so far only suited for data attributes and does not work well for string attributes, specifically for the 'label' attributes. Provide a separate callback function for those. Signed-off-by: Guenter Roeck

hwmon: (core) Clarify when read and write callbacks are mandatory

2016-12-10T05:54:15+00:00

The callback descrption in hwmon.h was misleading and stated that read and write callbacks would be optional. More accurate is is that the callbacks are mandatory if readable / writeable attributes are present. Signed-off-by: Guenter Roeck
