Merge tag 'docs-5.4' of git://git.lwn.net/linux
Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
"It's a somewhat calmer cycle for docs this time, as the churn of the
mass RST conversion is happily mostly behind us.
- A new document on reproducible builds.
- We finally got around to zapping the documentation for hardware
support that was removed in 2004; one doesn't want to rush these
things.
- The usual assortment of fixes, typo corrections, etc"

In TSOC-6 form, the DS2406 provides two switch outputs and +can be provided with power on a dedicated input. In TO-92 form, it provides +one output and uses parasitic power only. + +The driver provides two sysfs files. state is readable; it gives the +current state of each switch, with PIO A in bit 0 and PIO B in bit 1. The +driver ORs this state with 0x30, so shell scripts get an ASCII 0/1/2/3 to +work with. output is writable; bits 0 and 1 control PIO A and B, +respectively. Bits 2-7 are ignored, so it's safe to write ASCII data. + +CRCs are checked on read and write. Failed checks cause an I/O error to be +returned. On a failed write, the switch status is not changed. |
