738 | The sensors sysctl/proc interface | ||
739 | ================================= | ||
740 | |||
741 | This section only applies if you write `sensors' drivers. | ||
742 | |||
743 | Each sensors driver creates a directory in /proc/sys/dev/sensors for each | ||
744 | registered client. The directory is called something like foo-i2c-4-65. | ||
745 | The sensors module helps you to do this as easily as possible. | ||
746 | |||
747 | The template | ||
748 | ------------ | ||
749 | |||
750 | You will need to define a ctl_table template. This template will automatically | ||
751 | be copied to a newly allocated structure and filled in where necessary when | ||
752 | you call sensors_register_entry. | ||
753 | |||
754 | First, I will give an example definition. | ||
755 | static ctl_table foo_dir_table_template[] = { | ||
756 | { FOO_SYSCTL_FUNC1, "func1", NULL, 0, 0644, NULL, &i2c_proc_real, | ||
757 | &i2c_sysctl_real,NULL,&foo_func }, | ||
758 | { FOO_SYSCTL_FUNC2, "func2", NULL, 0, 0644, NULL, &i2c_proc_real, | ||
759 | &i2c_sysctl_real,NULL,&foo_func }, | ||
760 | { FOO_SYSCTL_DATA, "data", NULL, 0, 0644, NULL, &i2c_proc_real, | ||
761 | &i2c_sysctl_real,NULL,&foo_data }, | ||
762 | { 0 } | ||
763 | }; | ||
764 | |||
765 | In the above example, three entries are defined. They can either be | ||
766 | accessed through the /proc interface, in the /proc/sys/dev/sensors/* | ||
767 | directories, as files named func1, func2 and data, or alternatively | ||
768 | through the sysctl interface, in the appropriate table, with identifiers | ||
769 | FOO_SYSCTL_FUNC1, FOO_SYSCTL_FUNC2 and FOO_SYSCTL_DATA. | ||
770 | |||
771 | The third, sixth and ninth parameters should always be NULL, and the | ||
772 | fourth should always be 0. The fifth is the mode of the /proc file; | ||
773 | 0644 is safe, as the file will be owned by root:root. | ||
774 | |||
775 | The seventh and eighth parameters should be &i2c_proc_real and | ||
776 | &i2c_sysctl_real if you want to export lists of reals (scaled | ||
777 | integers). You can also use your own function for them, as usual. | ||
778 | Finally, the last parameter is the call-back to gather the data | ||
779 | (see below) if you use the *_proc_real functions. | ||
780 | |||
781 | |||
782 | Gathering the data | ||
783 | ------------------ | ||
784 | |||
785 | The call back functions (foo_func and foo_data in the above example) | ||
786 | can be called in several ways; the operation parameter determines | ||
787 | what should be done: | ||
788 | |||
789 | * If operation == SENSORS_PROC_REAL_INFO, you must return the | ||
790 | magnitude (scaling) in nrels_mag; | ||
791 | * If operation == SENSORS_PROC_REAL_READ, you must read information | ||
792 | from the chip and return it in results. The number of integers | ||
793 | to display should be put in nrels_mag; | ||
794 | * If operation == SENSORS_PROC_REAL_WRITE, you must write the | ||
795 | supplied information to the chip. nrels_mag will contain the number | ||
796 | of integers, results the integers themselves. | ||
797 | |||
798 | The *_proc_real functions will display the elements as reals for the | ||
799 | /proc interface. If you set the magnitude to 2, and supply 345 for | ||
800 | SENSORS_PROC_REAL_READ, it would display 3.45; and if the user would | ||
801 | write 45.6 to the /proc file, it would be returned as 4560 for | ||
802 | SENSORS_PROC_REAL_WRITE. A magnitude may even be negative! | ||
803 | |||
804 | An example function: | ||
805 | |||
806 | /* FOO_FROM_REG and FOO_TO_REG translate between scaled values and | ||
807 | register values. Note the use of the read cache. */ | ||
808 | void foo_in(struct i2c_client *client, int operation, int ctl_name, | ||
809 | int *nrels_mag, long *results) | ||
810 | { | ||
811 | struct foo_data *data = client->data; | ||
812 | int nr = ctl_name - FOO_SYSCTL_FUNC1; /* reduce to 0 upwards */ | ||
813 | |||
814 | if (operation == SENSORS_PROC_REAL_INFO) | ||
815 | *nrels_mag = 2; | ||
816 | else if (operation == SENSORS_PROC_REAL_READ) { | ||
817 | /* Update the readings cache (if necessary) */ | ||
818 | foo_update_client(client); | ||
819 | /* Get the readings from the cache */ | ||
820 | results[0] = FOO_FROM_REG(data->foo_func_base[nr]); | ||
821 | results[1] = FOO_FROM_REG(data->foo_func_more[nr]); | ||
822 | results[2] = FOO_FROM_REG(data->foo_func_readonly[nr]); | ||
823 | *nrels_mag = 2; | ||
824 | } else if (operation == SENSORS_PROC_REAL_WRITE) { | ||
825 | if (*nrels_mag >= 1) { | ||
826 | /* Update the cache */ | ||
827 | data->foo_base[nr] = FOO_TO_REG(results[0]); | ||
828 | /* Update the chip */ | ||
829 | foo_write_value(client,FOO_REG_FUNC_BASE(nr),data->foo_base[nr]); | ||
830 | } | ||
831 | if (*nrels_mag >= 2) { | ||
832 | /* Update the cache */ | ||
833 | data->foo_more[nr] = FOO_TO_REG(results[1]); | ||
834 | /* Update the chip */ | ||
835 | foo_write_value(client,FOO_REG_FUNC_MORE(nr),data->foo_more[nr]); | ||
836 | } | ||
837 | } | ||
838 | } | ||
