Marvell Ethernet PHYs can contain a temperature sensor, which the kernel
exports as an HWMON device. The PHY is on an MDIO bus. Add support for
this bus types to libsensors. The sensor is then displayed by sensors(1):
socaipsbus02100000ethernet02188000mdioswitch0mdio01-mdio-1
Adapter: MDIO adapter
temp1: +54.0°C (crit = +100.0°C)

Sparse wants forward declarations of static functions to be static as
well. For sensors_eval_expr, do that. For the error callbacks,
rearrange the code so that the forward declarations are no longer
needed.
Add support for sysfs attributes temp[1-*]_min_hyst (already
implemented by drivers adt7x10, lm77 and lm92) and
temp[1-*]_lcrit_hyst (no known users yet.)
While there is no longer a hard limit to the number of sensor of a
given type per chip, I feel a little uncomfortable having no limit at
all on the amount of memory we may try to allocate. Add an arbitrary
safety limit so that a design error or a bug in a hwmon driver can't
result into an insane memory allocation.
Make memory pre-allocation steps depend on the sensor type. Things like
voltages, temperatures or fans are typically plenty, however vid and
chassis intrusion are typically only a few, and there can only be one
beep_enable by design. This saves a small amount of temporary memory
for cheap.
max_subfeatures is computed the first time it is needed, we can do
exactly the same with FEATURE_SIZE. Introduce feature_size as a static
variable so that we don't have to recompute it again and again.
When gathering the attributes of each hwmon chip, libsensors uses a
temporary structure in memory to order and group all the attributes
into features. This temporary structure used to be a single array with
room for every possible attribute/subfeature. While simple, this
approach required to predefine a maximum number of per-type sensor
that could be handled.
In order to get rid of this arbitrary limit, which we hit and had to
raise three times already, I changed the temporary structure to an
array of dynamically allocated per-type subattribute arrays. This lets
us not allocate any memory for types which aren't implemented by a
given chip, and more importantly, this lets us reallocate room for
more attributes of a given type as needed.
I decided to allocate chunks of 8 attributes at a time, as this seemed
a good compromise between two frequent reallocations and
over-provisioning. It could be tweaked if needed.
Icing on the cake, I benchmarked this change on two different systems
and it results in performance gains. The total heap usage as reported
by valgrind is down by 50% on average, with peak memory consumption
(as reported by valgrind's massif) also down by 43% on average. The
total instructions count (as reported by valgrind's callgrind) is down
by 11% on average, with measured execution time also down by a few
percents. Valgrind rocks, BTW.
I have some ideas to optimize the memory allocations further, but I do
not expect such a huge gain from them. They may not even improve peak
memory consumption as massif shows the peak is somewhere else now at
least in some cases.
sensors_get_adapter_name(). Paul Crawford asked questions about these
as he found the original documentation unclear. I'm including my
answers to his questions here, reformatted, so that other developers
can benefit from them too.
On recent systems, extra configuration files can live in
/etc/ld.so.conf.d, so check this directory too, before warning.

attributes. These are defined in the standard sysfs interface for quite
some time, and at least three drivers (max6650, lm63 and applesmc)
implement them so we should support them.

now, but this make it possible to add more feature types without
increasing the code complexity beyond reason. Define constants and use
them to make the code even easier to understand.
If anyone is really worried about the relatively large memory
allocation, one way to improve the situation would be a two-pass
approach. But remember the memory is only needed for a short time...

The lifetimes of the path and label name buffers are
disjoint, so a single buffer can be used for both purposes.

There were multiple in-line calls that then fell through to
a common exit. Instead, set up a pointer to the original
strings, and have a single strdup in the common code.

Most filesystems (in particular - reiserfs, jfs, xfs, nfs); maybe,
some legacy installation of ext2/3 too) always return dirent->dt_type =
DT_UNKNOWN, so libsensors fails to parse /etc/sensors.d.
Also, symlink (DT_LNK) can point to directory, or FIFO/socket/device
(very bad!) - current check insufficient anyways.
Fixed by always using stat() to check what each entry is, rather than
relying on dirent->dt_type.
