There seems to be no way to detect the value of the CL/GAIN pin
from the device using PMBus.

Low current mode seems to be recommended (from LM5066 datasheet) for
improved current reporting accuracy in a typical design.

Assume the device is in low current mode unless the register override
bit is set and indicates high current limit mode.

Applied (silently fixed continuation line alignment).

Looking at the most recent version of various datasheets for the chips supported
by the driver, looks like TI changed the coefficients (again). Not the first time.
Time to go through all chips and update coefficients. Might be worthwhile
to do that at least for the chips(s) which are of interest for you.

Thanks,
Guenter

This patch also needs commit "hwmon: (pmbus/lm25066) Swap low/high
current coefficients for LM5066(i)" to maintain the existing reporting
behavior for LM5066 devices atleast.
(as now it will be pulling from the _L values by default)

I spot checked the coeff values for lm25056 with the online datasheet
and they also seem to be swapped although it is a little hard to be
sure since the meaning of GAIN input seems to be opposite of CL input:
GAIN=0 is low current and GAIN=1 is high current.

Guess I'll have to test that with real HW first after all before sending
it all upstream. I don't want to apply "hwmon: (pmbus/lm25066) Swap low/high
current coefficients for LM5066(i)" as-is because the problem affects all
chips supported by the driver (or at least several), not just one.

After looking into it more closely, turns out this is wrong.

The _L defines were supposed to be used if bit 4 is set, not if it is unset.
It wasn't supposed to mean "low" but "CL/GAIN=1" (ok, looking at it with 20/20
hindsight, that seems to be odd, but it is consistent with the code).

So the code should be something like

	if ((config & LM25066_DEV_SETUP_CL_CONFIG) &&
	    (config & LM25066_DEV_SETUP_CL)) {
		info->m[PSC_CURRENT_IN] = coeff[PSC_CURRENT_IN_L].m;
		info->b[PSC_CURRENT_IN] = coeff[PSC_CURRENT_IN_L].b;
		info->m[PSC_POWER] = coeff[PSC_POWER_L].m;
		info->b[PSC_POWER] = coeff[PSC_POWER_L].b;
	} else {
		info->m[PSC_CURRENT_IN] = coeff[PSC_CURRENT_IN].m;
		info->b[PSC_CURRENT_IN] = coeff[PSC_CURRENT_IN].b;
		info->m[PSC_POWER] = coeff[PSC_POWER].m;
		info->b[PSC_POWER] = coeff[PSC_POWER].b;
	}

Only that by itself is insufficient because not all chips support
bit 2 (at least lm25056 doesn't). We can work around that with
something like

	if (data->id == lm25056)
		config |= LM25066_DEV_SETUP_CL_CONFIG;

Can you do that ?

[ LM25063 doesn't have the bit either, but it looks like TI acquired
   National before LM25063 shipped, and the chip was never actually
   released. Dropping that will be a separate patch. ]

Thanks,
Guenter
