Adding resolution sysfs entry (RW) to get or set the device resolution Write values are managed as follow: * '9..12': resolution to set in bit * Anything else: do nothing Read values are : * '9..12': device resolution in bit * '-xx': xx is kernel error when reading the resolution Only supported devices will show the sysfs entry. A new family has been created for DS18S20 devices as they do not implement resolution feature. The resolution of each device is check when the device is discover by the bus master, in 'w1_therm_add_slave(struct w1_slave *)'. The status is stored in the device structure w1_therm_family_data so that the driver always knows the resolution of each device, which could be used later to determine the required conversion duration (resolution dependent). The resolution is re evaluate each time a user read or write the sysfs entry. To avoid looping through the w1_therm_families at run time, the pointer 'specific_functions' is set up to the correct 'w1_therm_family_converter' when the slave is added (which mean when it is discovered by the master). This initialization is done by a helper function 'device_family(struct w1_slave *sl)', and a dedicated macro 'SLAVE_SPECIFIC_FUNC(sl)' allow the access to the specific function of the slave device. 'read_scratchpad' and 'write_scratchpad' are the hardware functions to access the device RAM, as per protocol specification. It cancel the former 'precision' functions, which was only set and never read (so not stored in the device struct). Updating Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-driver-w1_therm accordingly.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
