thermal: Create CONFIG_THERMAL_HWMON=n
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
A bug in libsensors <= 2.10.6 is exposed
when this new hwmon I/F is enabled.
Create CONFIG_THERMAL_HWMON=n
until some time after libsensors 2.10.7 ships
so those users can run the latest kernel.

libsensors 3.x is already fixed -- those users
can use CONFIG_THERMAL_HWMON=y now.

What: CONFIG_THERMAL_HWMON
When: January 2009
Why: This option was introduced just to allow older lm-sensors userspace
to keep working over the upgrade to 2.6.26. At the scheduled time of
removal fixed lm-sensors (2.x or 3.x) should be readily available.

All platforms with ACPI thermal support can use this driver.
If you want this support, you should say Y or M here.

config THERMAL_HWMON
bool "Hardware monitoring support"
depends on HWMON=y || HWMON=THERMAL
help
The generic thermal sysfs driver's hardware monitoring support
requires a 2.10.7/3.0.2 or later lm-sensors userspace.

Say Y if your user-space is new enough.
