From 0602934f302e016e2ea5dc6951681bfac77455ef Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chris Verges Date: Fri, 21 Dec 2012 01:58:34 -0800 Subject: hwmon: (lm73} Detect and report i2c bus errors If an LM73 device does not exist on an I2C bus, attempts to communicate with the device result in an error code returned from the i2c read/write functions. The current lm73 driver casts that return value from a s32 type to a s16 type, then converts it to a temperature in celsius. Because negative temperatures are valid, it is difficult to distinguish between an error code printed to the response buffer and a negative temperature recorded by the sensor. The solution is to evaluate the return value from the i2c functions before performing any temperature calculations. If the i2c function did not succeed, the error code should be passed back through the virtual file system layer instead of being printed into the response buffer.
