Hi,

what kind of new power attributes do you want to add to the hwmon API?

AFAIK the acpi-power-meter driver supports the following attributes:

	power1_accuracy			-> HWMON_P_ACCURACY
	power1_cap_min			-> HWMON_P_CAP_MIN
	power1_cap_max			-> HWMON_P_CAP_MAX
	power1_cap_hyst			-> HWMON_P_CAP_HYST
	power1_cap			-> HWMON_P_CAP
	power1_average			-> HWMON_P_AVERAGE
	power1_average_min		-> HWMON_P_AVERAGE_MIN
	power1_average_max		-> HWMON_P_AVERAGE_MAX
	power1_average_interval		-> HWMON_P_AVERAGE_INTERVAL
	power1_average_interval_min	-> HWMON_P_AVERAGE_INTERVAL_MIN
	power1_average_interval_max	-> HWMON_P_AVERAGE_INTERVAL_MAX
	power1_alarm			-> HWMON_P_ALARM
	power1_model_number
	power1_oem_info
	power1_serial_number
	power1_is_battery
	name				-> handled by hwmon core

The remaining attributes are in my opinion not generic enough to add them to the generic
hwmon power attributes. I think you should implement them as a attribute_group which can
be passed to hwmon_device_register_with_info() using the "extra_groups" parameter.

Thanks,
Armin Wolf
