+Description
+-----------
+
+The Kandou KB9002 is an 8-lane PCIe 5.0 retimer with an integrated
+microcontroller. It exposes an SMBus 3.0 target (with mandatory PEC)
+on its sideband interface. The internal firmware aggregates per-lane
+die temperatures and publishes the maximum value through a 16-bit
+addressed register window.
+
+This driver reports that aggregated maximum as the only hwmon
+temperature channel. The running firmware version and the firmware
+boot status are exposed under debugfs.
+
+sysfs interface
+---------------
+
+==================  ===============================================
+temp1_input         Aggregated maximum die temperature across all
+                    active lanes (millidegrees Celsius).
+==================  ===============================================
+
+debugfs interface
+-----------------
+
+Files live in the per-client debugfs directory created by the I2C
+core: ``/sys/kernel/debug/i2c/i2c-<bus>/<bus>-<addr>/``.
+
+==================  ===============================================
+fw_ver              Running firmware version in
+                    "major.minor.patch.suffix" format. Read-only.
+fw_load_status      Firmware boot status: "normal" once firmware has
+                    finished initialising, "abnormal" otherwise.
+                    Read-only.
+==================  ===============================================
+
+Notes
+-----
+
+The driver requires ``I2C_FUNC_SMBUS_BLOCK_DATA``,
+``I2C_FUNC_SMBUS_PEC`` and ``I2C_FUNC_I2C`` from the host adapter. The
+last is needed only during probe for the host-interface mode switch;
+runtime accesses use SMBus block transactions exclusively.
+
+The retimer's SMBus address is configurable on three strap pins and
+ranges from 0x20 to 0x27. The address is selected through device tree
+(or i2c board info) the same way as any other I2C device; the driver
+does not auto-detect.
