Subject: [PATCH v2 5/7] hwmon: sy7636a: read the temperature only while the rails are on
Date: Sun, 1 Nov 2026 22:31:23 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261101223125.302001-6-pmazzini@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261101223125.302001-1-pmazzini@gmail.com>
The driver enables VCOM at probe, which keeps the panel's high voltage
rails on for good, and gets a dummy regulator if it probes before the
regulator exists. Read the temperature only while the rails are on, when
the chip samples it, and return -ENODATA otherwise. Read power good with
it in one transfer, so the value can not be from before the first sample
or after the rails went off. Register it under the chip name, as the
TPS65185 and FP9931 drivers do.
