Hi all,

I'm currently developing a driver for a hwmon device and I have a couple of 
questions that maybe someone
in the list can help me with. The device can be found in:
https://www.analog.com/media/en/technical-documentation/data-sheets/LTC2947.pdf

This device also has support for measuring charge which, as far as i 
understand, is not a standard type
for hwmon subsystem. So, my question is: How should I handle this? Should I 
just add a SENSOR_DEVICE_ATTR()
or is there a more appropriate way of handling this (using power supply 
subsystem)?

Another thing, is that the device supports continuous mode and single shot 
readings. Only in continuous mode
we can measure energy and charge, and the device can handle switching modes on 
runtime. So, can we just add a
sysfs control file under /sys/class/hwmon/device or is it not the way to go?

Thanks in advance,
Nuno Sá
