2008-08-15ibmaem: update the documentation to reflect the current nameDarrick J. Wong
Minor documentation update to reflect the current full name of the power management hardware interface and reflows the text a bit. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

2008-08-06hwmon: (it87) Support for 16-bit fan reading in it8705 >= rev 0x03Andrew Paprocki
The it8705 chip supports 16-bit fan tachometers in revisions at least >= 0x03 (Version G). This patch enables 16-bit fan readings on all revisions >= 0x03 just like the it8712, it8716, and it8718 chips.

2008-08-06hwmon: (it87) Support for 16-bit fan reading in it8712 >= rev 0x07Andrew Paprocki
The it8712 chip supports 16-bit fan tachometers in revisions >= 0x07. Revisions >= 0x08 dropped support for 8-bit fan divisor registers. The patch enables 16-bit fan readings on all revisions >= 0x07 just like the it8716 and it8718 chips.

2008-08-06hwmon: (w83627hf) Drop reset module parameterJean Delvare
Drop the reset parameter of the w83627hf driver. It seems it wasn't that useful. It was dropped from the Linux 2.4 version of this driver back in July 2004. The only users who have reported that they were still using this parameter, needed it to switch the chip from automatic fan speed control back to manual mode. Now that the driver creates pwmN_enable sysfs files, users will be able to use these files instead, which is way less agressive.

2008-08-06hwmon: (w83791d) Use fan divisor bits from vbat registerMarc Hulsman
Update w83791d with fan bits in vbat mon register (7.48 of the datasheet). This change allows all fans to have a divisor of 128, and fixes a problem with incorrectly reported fan speeds. Signed-off-by: Marc Hulsman <m.hulsman@tudelft.nl> Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
2008-08-06hwmon: (dme1737) Add support for the SMSC SCH5027Juerg Haefliger
Add support for the SCH5027. The differences to the DME1737 are: - No support for programmable temp offsets - In auto mode, PWM outputs stay on min value if temp goes below low threshold and can't be programmed to fully turn off - Different voltage scaling - No VID input Signed-off-by: Juerg Haefliger <juergh@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
2008-07-31hwmon: (lm85) Drop dead codeJean Delvare
Drop a lot of useless register defines, conversion macros, data structure members and update code. All these register values were read from the device but nothing is done out of them, so this is all dead code in practice.

2008-02-07hwmon: (lm78/w83781d) Probe fewer I2C addressesJean Delvare
We've never seen any device supported by the lm78 or w83781d driver at addresses 0x20-0x27, so let's stop probing these addresses. Extra probes cost time, and have potential for confusing or misdetecting other I2C devices. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> Signed-off-by: Mark M. Hoffman <mhoffman@lightlink.com>

2007-10-10hwmon: (dme1737) Add sch311x supportJuerg Haefliger
This patch adds support for the SMSC SCH3112, SCH3114, and SCH3116 Super-I/O chips. These chips feature identical hardware monitoring capabilites with the expection that some of the fan inputs and pmw outputs don't exist. The hardware monitoring features of the SCH311x chips can only be accessed via the ISA bus. The driver therefore registers as a platform driver, if such a chip is detected.

The Fintek F71806F/FG is compatible with the F71872F/FG, so it is already supported by the f71805f hardware monitoring driver.

This patch adds a new driver for the hardware monitoring features of the third revision of the Abit uGuru chip, found on recent Abit motherboards.

2007-07-19hwmon: Fault files naming conventionJean Delvare
We have the following naming convention documented in Documentation/hwmon/sysfs-interface for fault files: in[0-*]_input_fault fan[1-*]_input_fault temp[1-*]_input_fault Some drivers follow this convention (lm63, lm83, lm90, smsc47m192). However some drivers omit the "input" part and create files named fan1_fault (pc87427) or temp1_fault (dme1737). And the new "generic" libsensors follows this second (non-standard) convention, so it fails to report fault conditions for drivers which follow the standard. We want a single naming scheme, and everyone seems to prefer the shorter variant, so let's go for it. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
