Subject: [PATCH v2] iio: temperature: tsys01: fix broken PROM checksum validation
Date: Tue,  5 May 2026 08:10:24 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260505071025.69221-1-salah.triki@gmail.com> (raw)

The current implementation of tsys01_crc_valid() incorrectly sums the
first word (n_prom[0]) repeatedly instead of iterating over the 8 words
retrieved from the PROM. This leads to a checksum mismatch and probe
failure on hardware.

According to the TSYS01 datasheet, the PROM consists of 8 words. A valid
check must iterate through all 8 words to verify the integrity of the
calibration data. The current driver only checks the first word 8 times.

Note: This fix was identified during a code audit and is based on
datasheet specifications. It has not been tested on real hardware.

Fixes: 43e53407f680 ("Add tsys01 meas-spec driver support")

Changes in v2:
   - Update commit message to clarify that the fix is based on the
     datasheet analysis.
   - Add a note mentioning that it has not been tested on real hardware.
