"hwmon" is a very Linux specific term. It might make sense to find a more
generic term.

AFAIK devicetree likes to specify voltages in uV.

4096 what ?

No idea what this is supposed to be doing, but whatever it is,
it appears to be wrong. I'll comment more on it in the hwmon driver.

The 'hwmon' driver supports child nodes that fall into the following category:
 - temperature sensor (GSC internal temperature sensor - i2c registers
returns value in C*10)
 - voltage rails (two types here; cooked: i2c registers return
pre-scaled value in mV), raw: i2c registers return a raw ADC value
that must be scaled based on ADC internal ref voltage and resolution
and adjusted for a voltage divider to convert to mV
 - fan setpoints (I'll explain these below)

I called the node 'gw,gsc-hwmon' because the driver fits into the
'hwmon' API. Isn't that appropriate here for the driver compatible
string?

There are currently plenty of dt props specified in mV (grep -r mV
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/).

reference-voltage and resolution are used to scale the values from the
nodes that report a raw ADC value:

V = Vadc * (reference-voltage / resolution)

I can provide that in bits if it makes more sense? I can also hard
code both the resolution and the vref in the hwmon driver and remove
it from dt as currently the only GSC that uses raw ADC values is 12bit
with 2.5V ref.

The GSC supports a fan controller which drives a PWM signal to vary
the speed of a fan based on the GSC internal temperature sensor. The
FAN controller has 6 setpoints each having a fixed PWM duty-cycle but
the temperature at which those setpoints kick in can be varies via
registers at the 0x29 slave address (same slave address as the
temperature sensor and voltage inputs which is why I have it in the
hwmon driver):

fan0_point - 50% PWM (default 300)
fan1_point - 60% PWM (default 330)
fan2_point - 70% PWM (default 360)
fan3_point - 80% PWM (default 390)
fan4_point - 90% PWM (default 420)
fan5_point - 100% PWM (default 450)

The values are C/10 thus if the internal GSC temp sensor is below 30C
the fan output will be 0% duty cycle and if it hits 30C it will go to
50% until it hits 60% at 33C etc.

That is the hardware implementation that I'm trying to abstract and
define here. You pointed out the fact that the fan*_input ABI is
read-only fan PWM and I see that now. What do you suggest I use for
this feature I'm trying to implement driver support for?

I did notice that nouveau_hwmon.c has a single temperature setpoint
similar to this that they support with SENSOR_DEVICE_ATTR:

Yes, I think that would make more sense, and please describe what it means.

Please do not define your own scaling factors. pwm values are 0..255,
and temperatures are in milli-degrees C.

No, it isn't. It is the fan speed in RPM.

pwm[1-*]_auto_point[1-*]_pwm
pwm[1-*]_auto_point[1-*]_temp
pwm[1-*]_auto_point[1-*]_temp_hyst

may be relevant. From the context, something like

pwm1_auto_point1_pwm	read-only, set to 128
pwm1_auto_point1_temp	30000
pwm1_auto_point2_pwm	read-only, set to 153
pwm1_auto_point2_temp	33000
pwm1_auto_point3_pwm	read-only, set to 179
pwm1_auto_point3_temp	36000
pwm1_auto_point4_pwm	read-only, set to 204
pwm1_auto_point4_temp	39000
pwm1_auto_point5_pwm	read-only, set to 230
pwm1_auto_point5_temp	42000
pwm1_auto_point6_pwm	read-only, set to 255
pwm1_auto_point6_temp	45000

might make sense.

Whatever nouveau_hwmon.c does is, for all practical purposes, absolutely
irrelevant. This code has never been reviewed by a hwmon maintainer.
It may (or may not) be complete junk. Please do not use anything outside
drivers/hwmon as example.

Yes - hoping for feedback on mV vs uV as well as naming of hwmon mfd child node.

I like that idea! The details of the setpoints do not need to be in
the dts at all. I will need to add a single property to signify that
the board has a fan controller as some don't.

Use what is defined in 
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/property-units.txt. If you don't like 
what is there, then add to it first. But generally you should have some 
reason why what's there doesn't work for you.

+- #interrupt-cells: should be <1>, index of the interrupt within the
+  controller, in accordance with the "one cell" variant of
+  <devicetree/bindings/interrupt-controller/interrupt.txt>
+
+Optional nodes:
+* watchdog:
+The GSC provides a Watchdog monitor which can power cycle the board's
+primary power supply on most board models when tripped.
+
+Required watchdog properties:
+- compatible: must be "gw,gsc-watchdog"
+
+* hwmon:
+The GSC provides a set of Analog to Digitcal Converter (ADC) pins used for
+temperature and/or voltage monitoring.
+
+Required hwmon properties:
+- compatible: must be "gw,gsc-hwmon"
+
+Optional hwmon properties:
+- gw,reference-voltage: ADC reference voltage (mV) used in scaling raw ADCs
+- gw,resolution: ADC resolution (ie 4096) used in scaling raw ADCs
+
+Each hwmon child node defines an ADC input on the chip which the GSC may
+report cooked values (ie temperature sensor based on thermister), raw values,
+(ie voltage rail with a pre-scaling resistor divider), or a fan controller
+setpoint.
+
+Required hwmon child properties:
+- type: one of the following ADC types:
+  "gw,hwmon-temperature" - reports temperature in C*10
+  "gw,hwmon-voltage" - reports a pre-scaled voltage value
+  "gw,hwmon-voltage-raw" - reports a raw ADC that is scaled with
+       vreference, resolution, and optional resistor divider
+  "gw,hwmon-fan" - a fan temperature setpoint in C*10
+- reg: offset of the ADC register
+- label: name of the ADC input or FAN setpoint
+
+Optional hwmon child properties:
+- gw,voltage-divider: An array of two integers containing the resistor
+  values R1 and R2 of the optinal resistor divider on a raw ADC
+- gw,voltage-offset: a mV voltage offset to apply to a raw ADC (ie to
+  compensate for a diode drop)
