2018-01-02hwmon: (pmbus/max31785) Add dual tachometer supportAndrew Jeffery1-3/+5
The dual tachometer feature is implemented in hardware with a TACHSEL input to indicate the rotor under measurement, and exposed on the device by extending the READ_FAN_SPEED_1 word with two extra bytes*. The need to read the non-standard four-byte response leads to a cut-down implementation of i2c_smbus_xfer_emulated() included in the driver. Further, to expose the second rotor tachometer value to userspace the values are exposed through virtual pages. We re-route accesses to FAN_CONFIG_1_2 and READ_FAN_SPEED_1 on pages 23-28 (not defined by the hardware) to the same registers on pages 0-5, and with the latter command we extract the value from the second word of the four-byte response. * The documentation recommends the slower rotor be associated with TACHSEL=0, which corresponds to the first word of the response. The TACHSEL=0 measurement is used by the controller's closed-loop fan management to judge target fan rate.

2018-01-02hwmon: (pmbus/max31785) Add fan controlAndrew Jeffery1-0/+7
The implementation makes use of the new fan control virtual registers exposed by the pmbus core. It mixes use of the default implementations with some overrides via the read/write handlers to handle FAN_COMMAND_1 on the MAX31785, whose definition breaks the value range into various control bands dependent on RPM or PWM mode.

2017-11-05pmbus: Add driver for Maxim MAX31785 Intelligent Fan ControllerAndrew Jeffery1-0/+51
The Maxim MAX31785 is a PMBus device providing closed-loop, multi-channel fan management with temperature and remote voltage sensing. It supports various fan control features, including PWM frequency control, temperature hysteresis, dual tachometer measurements, and fan health monitoring. This patch presents a basic driver using only the existing features of the PMBus subsystem.
