[PATCH 0/6] hwmon: Fixes for lm90 driver

[Guenter Roeck]

This series fixes a number of issues with the lm90 driver.

- Not all versions of G781 and compatible chips support a conversion rate
  of 8 (62.5 ms). Limit its value to 0..7.
- Re-enable interrupts/alerts for devices supporting interrupts and with
  broken ALERT after the alert(s) clear.
- Various chips have a buggy ALERT implementation. Mark them accordingly.
- The attributes for sending alarm notifications should be the alarm
  attributes, not the associated value attributes.

[PATCH 1/6] hwmon: (lm90) Reduce maximum conversion rate for G781

[Guenter Roeck]

According to its datasheet, G781 supports a maximum conversion rate value
of 8 (62.5 ms). However, chips labeled G781 and G780 were found to only
support a maximum conversion rate value of 7 (125 ms). On the other side,
chips labeled G781-1 and G784 were found to support a conversion rate value
of 8. There is no known means to distinguish G780 from G781 or G784; all
chips report the same manufacturer ID and chip revision.
Setting the conversion rate register value to 8 on chips not supporting
it causes unexpected behavior since the real conversion rate is set to 0
(16 seconds) if a value of 8 is written into the conversion rate register.
Limit the conversion rate register value to 7 for all G78x chips to avoid
the problem.

[PATCH 2/6] hwmon: (lm90) Re-enable interrupts after alert clears

[Guenter Roeck]

If alert handling is broken, interrupts are disabled after an alert and
re-enabled after the alert clears. However, if there is an interrupt
handler, this does not apply if alerts were originally disabled and enabled
when the driver was loaded. In that case, interrupts will stay disabled
after an alert was handled though the alert handler even after the alert
condition clears. Address the situation by always re-enabling interrupts
after the alert condition clears if there is an interrupt handler.

IIUC, "alarm" is about the T_CRIT output line. While these attributes
are about the ALERT line. Hence why "alert" notifications need to be
sent to the unrelated "alarm" attributes? This change doesn't look right.

Although, no. I see now that the "alarm_bits" in the code are about the
alerts. Should be okay then.

Alarm attributes are really neither about interrupts nor about alerts.
Alarm attributes alert userspace that a limit has been exceeded.
How and if the driver notices that a limit has been exceeded is
an implementation detail. In a specific implementation, alerts
or interrupts can be used to notify a driver that a notable event
has occurred on a given device, but technically that is not
necessary. Polling would do just as well.

Datasheet refers to T_CRIT using the "alarm" term, this confused me a tad.

BTW, we don't have events wired for the temp_crit_alarm attribute.
