Only use PEC on the register write, not the readback, as it has proven to
cause trouble on some chips. Reads with PEC can be tested using i2cget.

chip. It has byte data and word data read support as well as byte
write/byte read, and supports PEC too. Beware that byte write with PEC
enabled can write random values to registers on non-PEC-aware chips.

queried (will work if i2c-dev is loaded and user has write access to
/dev/i2c*).

Discard unused hexchar function.
Massive reindent.
Rework the command line parameters handling.

Default to bank register 0x07 for Super-I/O chips.
Move default bank register selection to a separate function.
Move setting/restoring bank to a separate function.
Allow dumping of shorter ranges (flat address space mode).
Limit I2C-like dumps to addresses up to 0x3fff.
Print expected ranges on range errors.
This should allow us to work with the PC87360 family of chips.

Allow forcing of bank 0. Restore bank after dump.
This allows proper operation on Super-I/O chips.

Subject: lm_sensors 2.8.2 / DESTDIR / root
The reason for this email is that I always try to avoid running
Makefiles as root, even during 'make install'. Therefore, I
always use the DESTDIR feature, when it's available. Until today,
I always built i2c and lm_sensors by doing
$ make
$ make -i install DESTDIR=/foo
$ cd /foo && su root && fix permissions/ownership && install
The -i flag to make install is a kludge to avoid having to be root
while installing to the DESTDIR, and it's only required because
the files are installed with "-o root -g root". Using the -i
flag is of course not a good idea, since more fatal errors can
easily fly by undetected.
Today, I upgraded to Linux 2.6.0, and tried a similar install
procedure for lm_sensors, except that the make target is now "user"
and the install target is "user_install". I now noticed that the
DESTDIR variable is not used everywhere in "user_install", so I
couldn't use the -i kludge anymore. Instead, I wrote a patch that
removes the "-o root -g root" arguments to install everywhere, and
I also tried to add DESTDIR to all files/directories installed.
(The patch only applies to lm_sensors, not i2c, since only
lm_sensors is required in Linux 2.6.0.)
There's really no reason to say -o root -g root anyway, since if you
do install directly with make install, you have to be logged in as
root, and then the files will get the right ownership by default.
Much of the point of installing to a temporary DESTDIR is that you
don't have to be root, and that you can prepare the installation
by hand. Fixing the ownership is trivial:
chown -R root.root $DESTDIR
