449Description
450-----------
451
452The LM90 is a digital temperature sensor. It senses its own temperature as
453well as the temperature of up to one external diode. It is compatible
454with many other devices, many of which are supported by this driver.
455
456The family of chips supported by this driver is derived from MAX1617.
457This chip as well as various compatible chips support a local and a remote
458temperature sensor with 8 bit accuracy. Later chips provide improved accuracy
459and other additional features such as hysteresis and temperature offset
460registers.
461
462Note that there is no easy way to differentiate between the MAX6657,
463MAX6658 and MAX6659 variants. The extra features of the MAX6659 are only
464supported by this driver if the chip is located at address 0x4d or 0x4e,
465or if the chip type is explicitly selected as max6659.
466The MAX6680 and MAX6681 only differ in their pinout, therefore they obviously
467can't (and don't need to) be distinguished.
468
469The different chipsets of the family are not strictly identical, although
470very similar. For reference, here comes a non-exhaustive list of specific
471features:

576SA56004X:
577  * Better local resolution
578
579All temperature values are given in degrees Celsius. Resolution
580is 1.0 degree for the local temperature, 0.125 degree for the remote
581temperature, except for the MAX6654, MAX6657, MAX6658 and MAX6659 which have
582a resolution of 0.125 degree for both temperatures.
583
584Each sensor has its own high and low limits, plus a critical limit.
585Additionally, there is a relative hysteresis value common to both critical
586values. To make life easier to user-space applications, two absolute values
587are exported, one for each channel, but these values are of course linked.
588Only the local hysteresis can be set from user-space, and the same delta
589applies to the remote hysteresis.
590
591The lm90 driver will not update its values more frequently than configured with
592the update_interval attribute; reading them more often will do no harm, but will
593return 'old' values.
594
595SMBus Alert Support
596-------------------
597
598This driver has basic support for SMBus alert. When an alert is received,
599the status register is read and the faulty temperature channel is logged.
600
601The Analog Devices chips (ADM1032, ADT7461 and ADT7461A) and ON
602Semiconductor chips (NCT1008) do not implement the SMBus alert protocol
603properly so additional care is needed: the ALERT output is disabled when
604an alert is received, and is re-enabled only when the alarm is gone.
605Otherwise the chip would block alerts from other chips in the bus as long
606as the alarm is active.
607
608PEC Support
609-----------
610
611The ADM1032 is the only chip of the family which supports PEC. It does
612not support PEC on all transactions though, so some care must be taken.
613
614When reading a register value, the PEC byte is computed and sent by the
615ADM1032 chip. However, in the case of a combined transaction (SMBus Read
616Byte), the ADM1032 computes the CRC value over only the second half of
617the message rather than its entirety, because it thinks the first half
618of the message belongs to a different transaction. As a result, the CRC
619value differs from what the SMBus master expects, and all reads fail.
620
621For this reason, the lm90 driver will enable PEC for the ADM1032 only if
622the bus supports the SMBus Send Byte and Receive Byte transaction types.
623These transactions will be used to read register values, instead of
624SMBus Read Byte, and PEC will work properly.
625
626Additionally, the ADM1032 doesn't support SMBus Send Byte with PEC.
627Instead, it will try to write the PEC value to the register (because the
628SMBus Send Byte transaction with PEC is similar to a Write Byte transaction
629without PEC), which is not what we want. Thus, PEC is explicitly disabled
630on SMBus Send Byte transactions in the lm90 driver.
631
632PEC on byte data transactions represents a significant increase in bandwidth
633usage (+33% for writes, +25% for reads) in normal conditions. With the need
634to use two SMBus transaction for reads, this overhead jumps to +50%. Worse,
635two transactions will typically mean twice as much delay waiting for
636transaction completion, effectively doubling the register cache refresh time.
637I guess reliability comes at a price, but it's quite expensive this time.
638
639So, as not everyone might enjoy the slowdown, PEC is disabled by default and
640can be enabled through sysfs. Just write 1 to the "pec" file and PEC will be
641enabled. Write 0 to that file to disable PEC again.
