From ea98b29a05e9c70dbe159cbc6254d111059a2bb9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Punit Agrawal Date: Thu, 21 May 2015 15:08:45 +0100 Subject: hwmon: Support sensors exported via ARM SCP interface Create a driver to add support for SoC sensors exported by the System Control Processor (SCP) via the System Control and Power Interface (SCPI). The supported sensor types is one of voltage, temperature, current, and power. The sensor labels and values provided by the SCP are exported via the hwmon sysfs interface.
