2007-10-09hwmon: Don't export thermistor betaJean Delvare
Deprecate the use of thermistor beta values as thermal sensor types. No driver supports changing the beta value anyway. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> Acked-by: Hans de Goede <j.w.r.degoede@hhs.nl> Signed-off-by: Mark M. Hoffman <mhoffman@lightlink.com>
2007-10-09hwmon: (f71805f) List the F71806F/FG as supportedJean Delvare
The Fintek F71806F/FG is compatible with the F71872F/FG, so it is already supported by the f71805f hardware monitoring driver. In fact, both chips have the same chip ID, so the driver can't even differentiate between them.

2007-07-19hwmon: Add support for newer uGuru'sHans de Goede
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. This is an entirely different beast then the first and second revision (its again a winbond microcontroller, but the "protocol" to talk to it and the bank addresses are very different.

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>

2006-12-12hwmon/f71805f: Add support for the Fintek F71872F/FG chipJean Delvare
Add support for the Fintek F71872F/FG Super-I/O chip. It is basically the same as the Fintek F71805F/FG as far as hardware monitoring is concerned, with two additional internal voltages monitored (VSB and battery), and 6 VID inputs (not yet supported.) To make things a bit more confusing, two of the voltage input pins (in4 and in8) can be used for other functions. The driver reads the pin configuration from the Super-I/O configuration space to decide whether it must create interface files for these inputs or not. Many thanks to Nikolay Derkach for testing the early iterations of this code and reporting bugs. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
2006-12-12hwmon: New PC87427 hardware monitoring driverJean Delvare
This is a new hardware monitoring driver for the National Semiconductor PC87427 Super-I/O chip. It only supports fan speed monitoring for now, while the chip can do much more. Thanks to Amir Habibi at Candelis for setting up a test system, and to Michael Kress for testing several iterations of this driver. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
2006-12-12hwmon/it87: Remove the SMBus interface supportJean Delvare
This interface was useless as the LPC ISA-like interface is always available, is faster, and is more reliable. This cuts the driver size by some 20%. This change is also required to later convert the it87 driver to a platform driver, so that we can get rid of i2c-isa in a near future. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>

The SMSC LPC47M112 Super-I/O chip appears to be compatible with the LPC47M10x and LPC47M13x as far as hardware monitoring is concerned.

2006-09-28it87: Add support for the IT8718FJean Delvare
it87: Add support for the IT8718F The IT8718F is a Super-I/O chip with integrated hardware monitoring functions. It is very similar to the IT8716F, so adding support to the it87 driver was pretty straightforward. The most significant difference is that the IT8718F has up to 8 VID pins, instead of 6 for the older chips. For the IT8718F, the VID value can only be read from Super-I/O space. Userspace support is already in lm_sensors SVN (to be soon released as 2.10.1.) Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

it87: Add support for the IT8716F The IT8716F is a Super-I/O chip with integrated hardware monitoring functions. It is very similar to the IT8712F, so adding support to the it87 driver was pretty straightforward. The most significant change here is that the IT8716F has 16-bit fan speed counters, so the user no more needs to tweak the fan clock dividers to get the best readings. Userspace support is already in lm_sensors SVN (to be soon released as 2.10.1.) Thanks to Stian Oksavik, Olivier Nicolas, Prakash Punnoor and Juergen Kilb for testing the early versions of this patch. Thanks also to ITE for providing datasheets and answering my questions.

2006-06-22[PATCH] lm70: New hardware monitoring driverKaiwan N Billimoria
This driver implements support for the National Semiconductor LM70 temperature sensor. The LM70 temperature sensor chip supports a single temperature sensor. It communicates with a host processor (or microcontroller) via an SPI/Microwire Bus interface. Communication with the LM70 is simple: when the temperature is to be sensed, the driver accesses the LM70 using SPI communication: 16 SCLK cycles comprise the MOSI/MISO loop. 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.
