Kernel driver sg2042-mcu
========================

Supported chips:

  * Onboard MCU for sg2042

    Addresses scanned: -

    Prefix: 'sg2042-mcu'

Authors:

  - Inochi Amaoto <inochiama@outlook.com>

Description
-----------

This driver supprts hardware monitoring for onboard MCU with
i2c interface.

Usage Notes
-----------

This driver does not auto-detect devices. You will have to instantiate
the devices explicitly.
Please see Documentation/i2c/instantiating-devices.rst for details.

Sysfs Attributes
----------------

The following table shows the standard entries support by the driver:

================= =====================================================
Name              Description
================= =====================================================
temp1_input       Measured temperature of SoC
temp1_crit        Critical high temperature
temp1_crit_hyst   hysteresis temperature restore from Critical
temp2_input       Measured temperature of the base board
================= =====================================================

The following table shows the extra entries support by the driver
(the MCU device is in i2c subsystem):

================= ======= =============================================
Name              Perm    Description
================= ======= =============================================
reset_count       RO      Reset count of the SoC
uptime            RO      Seconds after the MCU is powered
reset_reason      RO      Reset reason for the last reset
repower_policy    RW      Execution policy when triggering repower
================= ======= =============================================

``repower_policy``
  The repower is triggered when the temperature of the SoC falls below
  the hysteresis temperature after triggering a shutdown due to
  reaching the critical temperature.
  The valid values for this entry are "repower" and "keep". "keep" will
  leave the SoC down when the triggering repower, and "repower" will
  boot the SoC.

Debugfs Interfaces
------------------

If debugfs is available, this driver exposes some hardware specific
data in ``/sys/kernel/debug/sg2042-mcu/*/``.

Implementation Notes

This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
