Description
-----------

This driver supports hardware montoring for Maxim MAX8688 Digital Power-Supply
Controller/Monitor with PMBus Interface.

The driver is a client driver to the core PMBus driver. Please see
Documentation/hwmon/pmbus for details on PMBus client drivers.


Usage Notes
-----------

This driver does not auto-detect devices. You will have to instantiate the
devices explicitly. Please see Documentation/i2c/instantiating-devices for
details.


Platform data support
---------------------

The driver supports standard PMBus driver platform data.


Sysfs entries
-------------

The following attributes are supported. Limits are read-write; all other
attributes are read-only.

in1_label		"vout1"
in1_input		Measured voltage. From READ_VOUT register.
in1_min			Minumum Voltage. From VOUT_UV_WARN_LIMIT register.
in1_max			Maximum voltage. From VOUT_OV_WARN_LIMIT register.
in1_lcrit		Critical minumum Voltage. VOUT_UV_FAULT_LIMIT register.
in1_crit		Critical maximum voltage. From VOUT_OV_FAULT_LIMIT register.
in1_min_alarm		Voltage low alarm. From VOLTAGE_UV_WARNING status.
in1_max_alarm		Voltage high alarm. From VOLTAGE_OV_WARNING status.
in1_lcrit_alarm		Voltage critical low alarm. From VOLTAGE_UV_FAULT status.
in1_crit_alarm		Voltage critical high alarm. From VOLTAGE_OV_FAULT status.
in1_highest		Historical maximum voltage.
in1_reset_history	Write any value to reset history.

curr1_label		"iout1"
curr1_input		Measured current. From READ_IOUT register.
curr1_max		Maximum current. From IOUT_OC_WARN_LIMIT register.
curr1_crit		Critical maximum current. From IOUT_OC_FAULT_LIMIT register.
curr1_max_alarm		Current high alarm. From IOUT_OC_WARN_LIMIT register.
curr1_crit_alarm	Current critical high alarm. From IOUT_OC_FAULT status.
curr1_highest		Historical maximum current.
curr1_reset_history	Write any value to reset history.

temp1_input		Measured temperature. From READ_TEMPERATURE_1 register.
temp1_max		Maximum temperature. From OT_WARN_LIMIT register.
temp1_crit		Critical high temperature. From OT_FAULT_LIMIT register.
temp1_max_alarm		Chip temperature high alarm. Set by comparing
			READ_TEMPERATURE_1 with OT_WARN_LIMIT if TEMP_OT_WARNING
			status is set.
temp1_crit_alarm	Chip temperature critical high alarm. Set by comparing
			READ_TEMPERATURE_1 with OT_FAULT_LIMIT if TEMP_OT_FAULT
			status is set.
temp1_highest		Historical maximum temperature.
temp1_reset_history	Write any value to reset history.
