Kernel driver adm1275
=====================
Supported chips:
* Analog Devices ADM1275
Prefix: 'adm1275'

Description
-----------
This driver supports hardware montoring for Analog Devices ADM1275 Hot-Swap
Controller and Digital Power Monitor.
The ADM1275 is a hot-swap controller that allows a circuit board to be removed
from or inserted into a live backplane. It also features current and voltage
readback via an integrated 12-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC), accessed
using a PMBus. interface.
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. Please see
Documentation/hwmon/pmbus for details.
Sysfs entries
-------------
The following attributes are supported. Limits are read-write, history reset
attributes are write-only, all other attributes are read-only.
in1_label "vin1" or "vout1" depending on chip variant and
configuration.
in1_input Measured voltage. From READ_VOUT register.
in1_min Minumum Voltage. From VOUT_UV_WARN_LIMIT register.
in1_max Maximum voltage. From VOUT_OV_WARN_LIMIT register.
in1_min_alarm Voltage low alarm. From VOLTAGE_UV_WARNING status.
in1_max_alarm Voltage high alarm. From VOLTAGE_OV_WARNING status.
in1_highest Historical maximum voltage.
in1_reset_history Write any value to reset history.
curr1_label "iout1"
curr1_input Measured current. From READ_IOUT register.
curr1_max Maximum current. From IOUT_OC_WARN_LIMIT register.
curr1_max_alarm Current high alarm. From IOUT_OC_WARN_LIMIT register.
curr1_highest Historical maximum current.
curr1_reset_history Write any value to reset history.
