ABI: sysfs-class-hwmon: add ABI documentation for it

2021-10-05T14:25:16Z

Move the ABI attributes documentation from: Documentation/hwmon/sysfs-interface.rst in order for it to follow the usual ABI documentation. That allows script/get_abi.pl to properly handle it.

hwmon: Clarify scope of attribute access

2021-04-20T13:50:14Z

Hardware monitoring sysfs attributes are used and displayed by unrestricted userspace applications. Standard attributes therefore have to be world readable, since otherwise those userspace applications would either have to run as super-user or display an error. None of those makes sense. Clarify the expected scope of attribute access in the ABI document. Cc: Naveen Krishna Chatradhi Signed-off-by: Guenter Roeck
