Hope this is the right place to post this.. If not would you kindly point me to the right place? Toying around in /sys/class/hwmon while writing pwm controller script i noticed my radeonhd 7970 doesnt expose /sys/class/hwmon/hwmonX/device/name like all my other devices does. Seems like a bug? Using kernel 3.17.1, mesa 10.3.1.
It does provide a name via /sys/class/hwmon/hwmonX/name. The driver calls hwmon_device_register_with_groups() and passes the name to hwmon.
Oh yeah, it does, didnt notice that. That'll work =) None of my other devices do though. They all place name in the device folder.

They all place name in the device folder. I'm not entirely sure how that's done off hand. I guess it may take the name from the device structure passed in. Does the attached patch fix it?
Doesnt seem to have made any difference. Since i had to recompile i also upgraded from linux 3.16 to 3.17, and it seems fam15h_power moved hwmonX/device/name to hwmonX/name. dunno what to make of that...
Might be worth asking the hwmon people. I'm not sure how hwmon decides where to hang the name element in the sysfs tree.
