Message-ID: <52E561D0.4040308@roeck-us.net> Date: Sun, 26 Jan 2014 11:28:16 -0800 From: Guenter Roeck <linux@...ck-us.net> To: LM Sensors <lm-sensors@...sensors.org>, Jean Delvare <khali@...ux-fr.org> CC: "linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org" <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org>, Mark Brown <broonie@...nel.org>, Liam Girdwood <lgirdwood@...il.com> Subject: lm90 driver no longer working on PCs in 3.13 Hi, the lm90 driver is no longer working on PCs with the 3.13 kernel ... or at least not without special configuration. This is what I get if I try to instantiate a device on it (max6695): i2c 1-0018: Driver lm90 requests probe deferral i2c i2c-1: new_device: Instantiated device max6695 at 0x18 The regulator core always returns -EPROBE_DEFER if the platform does not support devicetree and if the regulator it is looking for does not exist. Since the driver now requires a mandatory regulator (commit 3e0f964f2ad - hwmon: (lm90) Add power control), and the regulator it requests does not exist on a PC, the result is not really surprising. I thought the regulator core would realize that it has to return a dummy regulator, but apparently that is not the case, or I don't know how to configure it. Any idea what I might need to do to get it working ?
