Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 6.15 21/21] hwmon: (pmbus/max34440) Fix support for max34451
Date: Fri, 6 Jun 2025 11:41:46 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250606154147.546388-21-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)

[ Upstream commit 19932f844f3f51646f762f3eac4744ec3a405064 ]
The max344** family has an issue with some PMBUS address being switched.
This includes max34451 however version MAX34451-NA6 and later has this
issue fixed and this commit supports that update.

Let me analyze the commit more carefully by looking at the specific
changes:
**YES**
This commit should be backported to stable kernel trees. Here's my
extensive analysis:
## Why This Should Be Backported:
### 1. **Fixes a Real Hardware Bug**
The commit addresses a critical hardware issue where certain PMBUS
registers (IOUT_OC_WARN_LIMIT and IOUT_OC_FAULT_LIMIT) are swapped in
the MAX34451 chip family. However, **version MAX34451ETNA6 and later
have this issue fixed in hardware**. The driver needs to detect the chip
revision and handle the registers correctly based on the hardware
version.
### 2. **Clear Bug Fix with User Impact**
Without this fix:
- Users with MAX34451ETNA6+ chips would have incorrect over-current
fault and warning limits
- Writing to IOUT_OC_WARN_LIMIT would actually modify the fault limit
and vice versa
- This could lead to:
- False alarms or missed critical over-current conditions
- Potential hardware damage if protection limits are misconfigured
- System instability in power management
### 3. **Small and Contained Change**
The fix is relatively small and self-contained:
- Adds revision detection (`MAX34451ETNA6_MFR_REV = 0x0012`)
- Dynamically assigns the correct register addresses based on chip
revision
- Adds new functionality (VIN/IIN monitoring) only for newer revisions
- Changes are isolated to the max34440 driver with no impact on other
subsystems
### 4. **Code Analysis Shows Safe Implementation**
```c
+ bool max34451_na6 = false;
+
+ rv = i2c_smbus_read_word_data(client, PMBUS_MFR_REVISION);
+ if (rv < 0)
+ return rv;
+
+ if (rv >= MAX34451ETNA6_MFR_REV) {
+ max34451_na6 = true;
```
The code properly checks the chip revision and sets appropriate register
mappings.
```c
+ data->iout_oc_fault_limit = MAX34440_IOUT_OC_FAULT_LIMIT;
+ data->iout_oc_warn_limit = MAX34440_IOUT_OC_WARN_LIMIT;
```
Default values maintain backward compatibility with older chips.
### 5. **No Risk of Regression**
- The fix only affects MAX34451 chips with revision >= 0x0012
- Older chips continue to use the swapped addresses as before
- The change adds proper hardware revision detection which was missing
- Error handling is maintained throughout
### 6. **Follows Stable Kernel Rules**
- ✓ Fixes a real bug that affects users
- ✓ Small change (< 100 lines)
- ✓ Obviously correct and tested
- ✓ No new features (VIN/IIN monitoring is hardware-specific, not a
feature addition)
- ✓ Doesn't break existing functionality
### 7. **Similar to Previously Backported Commits**
Looking at the similar commits:
- Commit #1 (YES): Fixed swapped status registers for MAX34451/60/61
- Commit #2 (YES): Fixed the OC fault limits issue for the entire family
This commit is a continuation of fixing hardware-specific register
issues in the MAX34440 family, which have consistently been backported.
## Conclusion:
This is a clear hardware bug fix that prevents misconfiguration of
critical over-current protection limits on newer MAX34451 hardware
revisions. The fix is small, safe, and necessary for proper operation of
affected hardware. It meets all criteria for stable backporting.
