Subject: [PATCH v2] Documentation: hwmon: lm75: document sysfs interface
Date: Sun, 17 May 2026 00:40:19 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260516164022.1792-1-eric039eric@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260516160823.1461-1-eric039eric@gmail.com>

Document the sysfs attributes supported by the lm75 driver.

The driver exposes temp1_input, temp1_max, temp1_max_hyst, and the
standard update_interval attribute. Some chips also expose temp1_alarm,
and temp1_label is available if a label is provided for the device.

Add a sysfs-Interface section to Documentation/hwmon/lm75.rst to
describe the supported attributes and clarify that temp1_alarm,
temp1_label, and the write permissions of update_interval depend on the
chip.

 The LM77 is not supported, contrary to what we pretended for a long time.
 Both chips are simply not compatible, value encoding differs.
