* hwmon/it87: Add IT8726F supportRudolf Marek2007-07-191-2/+7
| | | | | | | | Add support for IT8726F chip driver, which is just same as IT8716F with additional glue logic for AMD power sequencing. Signed-off-by: Rudolf Marek <r.marek@assembler.cz> Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
* hwmon: Fault files naming conventionJean Delvare2007-07-191-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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>

| |/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The initial version of the thinkpad-acpi sysfs interface (not yet released in any stable mainline kernel) made liberal use of named sysfs groups, in order to get the attributes more organized. This proved to be a really bad design decision. Maybe if attribute groups were as flexible as a real directory, and if binary attributes were not second-class citizens, the idea of subdirs and named groups would not have been so bad. This patch makes all the thinkpad-acpi sysfs groups anonymous (thus removing the subdirs), adds the former group names as a prefix (so that hotkey/enable becomes hotkey_enable for example), and updates the documentation. These changes will make the thinkpad-acpi sysfs ABI a lot easier to maintain. Signed-off-by: Henrique de Moraes Holschuh <hmh@hmh.eng.br> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
