Subject: [PATCH v2 0/6] hwmon: (lm63) Add Sensylink CTF2301 support
Date: Tue, 21 Jul 2026 02:48:26 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260721-ctl2301-v2-0-ef5fb342872a@linux.dev> (raw)
Sensylink CTF2301 is a system-level thermal management solution chip.
The CTF2301 is an I2C/SMBus compatible device featuring:
- One local temperature sensor with +/-0.5 degree C accuracy and
0.0625 degree C resolution.
- One remote temperature sensor for external diode-connected
transistors, offering +/-1 degree C accuracy and 0.125 degree C
resolution (temperature range: -40 degree C to +125 degree C).
- An integrated PWM fan controller capable of operating in two modes:
1. Direct-DCY: Open-loop direct duty cycle control.
2. Auto-Temp: Closed-loop automatic fan speed control based on
measured temperature.
- A 1-channel fan speed monitor (TACH input) for RPM measurement.
As Guenter pointed out on v1, the CTF2301 register map is a near match
for the LM63/LM96163 family (local and remote temperature, tachometer and
PWM fan control), so this version drops the standalone ctf2301 driver
and instead adds CTF2301 as a new chip type in the existing lm63 driver.
This reuses the shared temperature, limit, alarm and PWM handling instead
of duplicating it.
The CTF2301-specific differences are handled on top of lm63: 12-bit local
temperature input and high-limit values, nine conversion rates, 12
fan-control lookup table entries, and optional 22.5 kHz high-resolution
PWM. When no IRQ is described, the shared ALERT/TACH pin is configured as
a tachometer input. The LM63 family can also register as a thermal cooling
device when the device tree provides the #cooling-cells property.
The required SpacemiT I2C controller clock series has been merged but is
not yet included in an rc release:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260508-k1-i2c-ilcr-v7-0-8c2dde5c3ed5@linux.spacemit.com/
Apply that series before testing this series on K3. Without it, the I2C
controller cannot generate an accurate 400 kHz SCL clock and CTF2301
accesses may fail.
Tested on a SpacemiT K3 CoM260 by booting an initramfs and verifying the
CTF2301 probe. Temperature, tachometer, PWM, and conversion-rate behavior
were checked against direct I2C register accesses and the datasheet.

Changes in v2:
- Replace the standalone CTF2301 driver with a new lm63 chip type, as
suggested by Guenter, reusing the existing temperature, limit, alarm,
tachometer, PWM, and automatic fan-control paths.
- Add the temperature thresholds, alarms, and automatic fan-control lookup
table support which were missing from the v1 driver.
- Handle CTF2301-specific 12-bit local temperature values, nine conversion
rates, 12 lookup table entries, shared ALERT/TACH pin, and optional
22.5 kHz high-resolution PWM.
- Propagate SMBus failures from lm63 initialization and write paths.
- Add optional thermal cooling-device support for the LM63 family using
the existing manual PWM control path.
- Move the National LM63-family compatibles from trivial-devices.yaml to a
dedicated binding which permits #cooling-cells.
- Add CTF2301 to the LM63-family binding instead of keeping the standalone
schema from v1. Do not declare #cooling-cells on K3 CoM260 yet because
the board has no thermal consumer.
- Fix the binding errors reported by Rob by using a plain compatible string
and wrapping the description.
- Document CTF2301 support in the lm63 hwmon documentation and provide the
detailed register description used for review.
- Add the K3 CoM260 I2C6 pinctrl state and CTF2301 device node for hardware
testing.
