Subject: hwmon: (nct7802) buggy VSEN1/2/3 alarm
Date: Mon, 25 Nov 2019 13:13:43 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5DDBD386.4070408@kontron.com> (raw)

Hi Guenter,

According to the NCT7802Y datasheet, the REG_VOLTAGE_LIMIT_LSB definition is wrong and leads to wrong threshold registers used. It 
should be :
static const u8 REG_VOLTAGE_LIMIT_LSB[2][5] = {
         { 0x46, 0x00, 0x40, 0x42, 0x44 },
         { 0x45, 0x00, 0x3f, 0x41, 0x43 },
};
With this definition, the right bit is set in "Voltage SMI Status Register @0x1e" for each threshold reached (using i2cget to check)

But I'm unable to get any "ALARM" reported by the command "sensors" for VSEN1/2/3 = in2,in3,in4 because status for in0 is read 
before (unless I set "ignore in0" in sensors file). The problem is that status bits in "Voltage SMI Status Register @0x1e" are 
cleared when reading, and a read is done for each inX processed, so only the first inX has a chance to get its alarm bit set.
For this problem I don't see how to fix this easily; just to let you know ...

Best regards
