hwmon: (max34440) Add driver documentation
MAX34440 and MAX34441 have their own driver, thus there should be explicit documentation instead of mentioning the chips in the generic PMBus driver documentation. Signed-off-by: Guenter Roeck <guenter.roeck@ericsson.com> Reviewed-by: Tom Grennan <tom.grennan@ericsson.com>

Description | ||
----------- | ||
|
||
This driver supports hardware montoring for Maxim MAX34440 PMBus 6-Channel | ||
Power-Supply Manager and MAX34441 PMBus 5-Channel Power-Supply Manager | ||
and Intelligent Fan Controller. | ||
|
||
The driver is a client driver to the core PMBus driver. Please see | ||
Documentation/hwmon/pmbus for details on PMBus client drivers. | ||
|
||
|
||
Usage Notes | ||
----------- | ||
|
||
This driver does not auto-detect devices. You will have to instantiate the | ||
devices explicitly. Please see Documentation/i2c/instantiating-devices for | ||
details. | ||
|
||
|
||
Platform data support | ||
--------------------- | ||
|
||
The driver supports standard PMBus driver platform data. | ||
|
||
|
||
Sysfs entries | ||
------------- | ||
|
||
The following attributes are supported. Limits are read-write; all other | ||
attributes are read-only. | ||
|
||
in[1-6]_label "vout[1-6]". | ||
in[1-6]_input Measured voltage. From READ_VOUT register. | ||
in[1-6]_min Minumum Voltage. From VOUT_UV_WARN_LIMIT register. | ||
in[1-6]_max Maximum voltage. From VOUT_OV_WARN_LIMIT register. | ||
in[1-6]_lcrit Critical minumum Voltage. VOUT_UV_FAULT_LIMIT register. | ||
in[1-6]_crit Critical maximum voltage. From VOUT_OV_FAULT_LIMIT register. | ||
in[1-6]_min_alarm Voltage low alarm. From VOLTAGE_UV_WARNING status. | ||
in[1-6]_max_alarm Voltage high alarm. From VOLTAGE_OV_WARNING status. | ||
in[1-6]_lcrit_alarm Voltage critical low alarm. From VOLTAGE_UV_FAULT status. | ||
in[1-6]_crit_alarm Voltage critical high alarm. From VOLTAGE_OV_FAULT status. | ||
|
||
curr[1-6]_label "iout[1-6]". | ||
curr[1-6]_input Measured current. From READ_IOUT register. | ||
curr[1-6]_max Maximum current. From IOUT_OC_WARN_LIMIT register. | ||
curr[1-6]_crit Critical maximum current. From IOUT_OC_FAULT_LIMIT register. | ||
curr[1-6]_max_alarm Current high alarm. From IOUT_OC_WARNING status. | ||
curr[1-6]_crit_alarm Current critical high alarm. From IOUT_OC_FAULT status. | ||
|
||
in6 and curr6 attributes only exist for MAX34440. | ||
|
||
temp[1-8]_input Measured temperatures. From READ_TEMPERATURE_1 register. | ||
temp1 is the chip's internal temperature. temp2..temp5 | ||
are remote I2C temperature sensors. For MAX34441, temp6 | ||
is a remote thermal-diode sensor. For MAX34440, temp6..8 | ||
are remote I2C temperature sensors. | ||
temp[1-8]_max Maximum temperature. From OT_WARN_LIMIT register. | ||
temp[1-8]_crit Critical high temperature. From OT_FAULT_LIMIT register. | ||
temp[1-8]_max_alarm Temperature high alarm. | ||
temp[1-8]_crit_alarm Temperature critical high alarm. | ||
|
||
temp7 and temp8 attributes only exist for MAX34440. |
