hwmon: (zl6100) Enable interval between chip accesses for all chips

2012-03-14T16:17:03+00:00

Intersil reports that all chips supported by the zl6100 driver require
an interval between chip accesses, even ZL2004 and ZL6105 which were thought
to be safe.

hwmon: (w83627ehf) Describe undocumented pwm attributes

2012-03-13T10:48:07+00:00

Add description of pwm[1-4]_start_output, pwm[1-4]_step_output,
pwm[1-4]_stop_output, and pwm[1-4]_max_output attributes to driver
documentation.

hwmon: (w83627ehf) Fix temp2 source for W83627UHG

2012-03-13T10:30:56+00:00

Properly set the source of temp2 for the W83627UHG. Also fix a
comment right before that, and document the W83627UHG as reporting up
to 3 temperatures.

hwmon: (jc42) Add support for AT30TS00, TS3000GB2, TSE2002GB2, and MCP9804

2012-03-07T17:48:44+00:00

Also update IDT datasheet locations.

hwmon: (jc42) Add support for ST Microelectronics STTS2002 and STTS3000

2012-03-07T17:48:21+00:00

These are fully compatible with Jedec JC 42.4 as far as I can see.

hwmon: (sysfs-interface) Update tempX_type attribute to be more generic

2012-01-16T21:51:48+00:00

The temp[1-*]_type attribute reports the temperature sensor type. Sensor type 1
is described as "PII/Celeron Diode", which is quite restrictive; other CPUs
may also have an embedded temperature sensor diode with similar characteristics.
Change description to "CPU embedded diode" to be more generic.

hwmon: (it87) Add IT8728F support

2012-01-16T21:51:48+00:00

Until we get a datasheet for the IT8728F, treat it as fully compatible
with the IT8721F, as it seems to work reasonably well.

This closes kernel bug #27262.

hwmon: (lm63) Expose automatic fan speed control lookup table

2012-01-16T21:51:47+00:00

The LM63 and compatible devices have a lookup table to control the fan
speed automatically. Expose it in sysfs. Values are cached for 5
seconds, independently of the other register values to avoid slowing
down "sensors". We might make the table values writable in the future.

hwmon: (lm63) LM64 has a dedicated pin for tachometer

2012-01-16T21:51:46+00:00

On the LM64, the tachometer function has a dedicated pin and fan speed
monitoring is always enabled.

hwmon: (lm63) Add sensor type attribute for external sensor on LM96163

2012-01-16T21:51:46+00:00

On LM96163, the external temperature sensor type is configurable to
either a thermal diode or a 3904 transistor. The chip reports a wrong
temperature if misconfigured. Add writable attribute to support it.
