78 Description
79 -----------
80
81 This driver supports hardware monitoring for various PMBus compliant devices.
82 It supports voltage, current, power, and temperature sensors as supported
83 by the device.
84
85 Each monitored channel has its own high and low limits, plus a critical
86 limit.
87
88 Fan support will be added in a later version of this driver.
89

91 Usage Notes
92 -----------
93
94 This driver does not probe for PMBus devices, since there is no register
95 which can be safely used to identify the chip (The MFG_ID register is not
96 supported by all chips), and since there is no well defined address range for
97 PMBus devices. You will have to instantiate the devices explicitly.
98
99 Example: the following will load the driver for an LTC2978 at address 0x60
100 on I2C bus #1::
101
102         $ modprobe pmbus
103         $ echo ltc2978 0x60 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-1/new_device
104
105
106 Platform data support
107 ---------------------
108
109 Support for additional PMBus chips can be added by defining chip parameters in
110 a new chip specific driver file. For example, (untested) code to add support for
111 Emerson DS1200 power modules might look as follows::
112
113   static struct pmbus_driver_info ds1200_info = {

124         .R[PSC_VOLTAGE_OUT] = 3,
125         .m[PSC_TEMPERATURE] = 1,
126         .b[PSC_TEMPERATURE] = 0,
127         .R[PSC_TEMPERATURE] = 3,
128         .func[0] = PMBUS_HAVE_VIN | PMBUS_HAVE_IIN | PMBUS_HAVE_STATUS_INPUT

136   static int ds1200_probe(struct i2c_client *client,
137                           const struct i2c_device_id *id)
138   {
139         return pmbus_do_probe(client, id, &ds1200_info);
140   }
141
142   static int ds1200_remove(struct i2c_client *client)
143   {
144         return pmbus_do_remove(client);
145   }
146
147   static const struct i2c_device_id ds1200_id[] = {
148         {"ds1200", 0},
149         {}
150   };
151
152   MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(i2c, ds1200_id);
153
154   /* This is the driver that will be inserted */
155   static struct i2c_driver ds1200_driver = {
156         .driver = {
157                    .name = "ds1200",

168
169   static void __exit ds1200_exit(void)

173
174
175 Sysfs entries
176 -------------
177
178 When probing the chip, the driver identifies which PMBus registers are
179 supported, and determines available sensors from this information.
180 Attribute files only exist if respective sensors are supported by the chip.
181 Labels are provided to inform the user about the sensor associated with
182 a given sysfs entry.
183
184 The following attributes are supported. Limits are read-write; all other
185 attributes are read-only.
