Subject: Re: [PATCH v3 2/4] hwmon: (lm90) use macro defines for the status
 bit

Hi Wei, Guenter,

Regarding the subject: for me these are constants, not macros. AFAIK
the term "macro" refers to defines with parameters only.

LM90_STATUS_BUSY is never used anywhere so please don't define it.

It's a bit disappointing to not use the freshly introduced constants.
That being said I agree it would make the code hard to read, so you can
leave it as is.

Unrelated to this patch, but Guenter, I am worried about the MAX6696
handling here. I realize that I am the one who accepted your code, but
now it looks wrong. Specifically:
* We check for (status2 & 0xfe) i.e. 7 alarm bits, but the code below
  only reports 2 alarms bits. So if any of the 5 other alarm bits in
  STATUS2 are, we may return true (chip is tripped) but not print the
  cause.
* At least bits 1 and 2 of STATUS 2 fit totally fine in the driver as
  it currently exists, so I can't think of any reason for not handling
  them. Why are we not? Ideally we should print a message for every
  alarm bit so that we never return "true" without printing a message.
  Even though OT2 limits aren't handled by the driver...
* If you think this piece of code shouldn't deal with OT/THERM limits
  because they do not trigger an SMBus alarm, this can be discussed,
  but all chips should be handled the same in this respect then.
* Why in the first place is max6696's data->alert_alarms set to 0x187c
  and not 0x1c7c? Including 1OPEN but not 2OPEN makes no sense.

You could swap the success and failure cases to avoid this negation.

You end up reading LM90_REG_R_STATUS, which is not OK. This register
contains self-clearing bits, so there is no guarantee that the second
read will return the same value as the first read. You'll have to come
up with a different approach that reads LM90_REG_R_STATUS only once.
