+Module Parameters
|
|
|
+-----------------
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+* init int
|
|
|
+ (default 1)
|
|
|
+ Use 'init=0' to bypass initializing the chip.
|
|
|
+ Try this if your computer crashes when you load the module.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+* force_subclients=bus,caddr,saddr,saddr
|
|
|
+ This is used to force the i2c addresses for subclients of
|
|
|
+ a certain chip. Example usage is `force_subclients=0,0x2f,0x4a,0x4b'
|
|
|
+ to force the subclients of chip 0x2f on bus 0 to i2c addresses
|
|
|
+ 0x4a and 0x4b.

+Description
|
|
|
+-----------
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+This driver implements support for the Winbond W83792AD/D.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Detection of the chip can sometimes be foiled because it can be in an
|
|
|
+internal state that allows no clean access (Bank with ID register is not
|
|
|
+currently selected). If you know the address of the chip, use a 'force'
|
|
|
+parameter; this will put it into a more well-behaved state first.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+The driver implements three temperature sensors, seven fan rotation speed
|
|
|
+sensors, nine voltage sensors, and two automatic fan regulation
|
|
|
+strategies called: Smart Fan I (Thermal Cruise mode) and Smart Fan II.
|
|
|
+Automatic fan control mode is possible only for fan1-fan3. Fan4-fan7 can run
|
|
|
+synchronized with selected fan (fan1-fan3). This functionality and manual PWM
|
|
|
+control for fan4-fan7 is not yet implemented.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Temperatures are measured in degrees Celsius and measurement resolution is 1
|
|
|
+degC for temp1 and 0.5 degC for temp2 and temp3. An alarm is triggered when
|
|
|
+the temperature gets higher than the Overtemperature Shutdown value; it stays
|
|
|
+on until the temperature falls below the Hysteresis value.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Fan rotation speeds are reported in RPM (rotations per minute). An alarm is
|
|
|
+triggered if the rotation speed has dropped below a programmable limit. Fan
|
|
|
+readings can be divided by a programmable divider (1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64 or
|
|
|
+128) to give the readings more range or accuracy.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Voltage sensors (also known as IN sensors) report their values in millivolts.
|
|
|
+An alarm is triggered if the voltage has crossed a programmable minimum
|
|
|
+or maximum limit.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Alarms are provided as output from "realtime status register". Following bits
|
|
|
+are defined:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+bit - alarm on:
|
|
|
+0 - in0
|
|
|
+1 - in1
|
|
|
+2 - temp1
|
|
|
+3 - temp2
|
|
|
+4 - temp3
|
|
|
+5 - fan1
|
|
|
+6 - fan2
|
|
|
+7 - fan3
|
|
|
+8 - in2
|
|
|
+9 - in3
|
|
|
+10 - in4
|
|
|
+11 - in5
|
|
|
+12 - in6
|
|
|
+13 - VID change
|
|
|
+14 - chassis
|
|
|
+15 - fan7
|
|
|
+16 - tart1
|
|
|
+17 - tart2
|
|
|
+18 - tart3
|
|
|
+19 - in7
|
|
|
+20 - in8
|
|
|
+21 - fan4
|
|
|
+22 - fan5
|
|
|
+23 - fan6
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Tart will be asserted while target temperature cannot be achieved after 3 minutes
|
|
|
+of full speed rotation of corresponding fan.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+In addition to the alarms described above, there is a CHAS alarm on the chips
|
|
|
+which triggers if your computer case is open (This one is latched, contrary
|
|
|
+to realtime alarms).
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+The chips only update values each 3 seconds; reading them more often will
|
|
|
+do no harm, but will return 'old' values.

+W83792D PROBLEMS
|
|
|
+----------------
|
|
|
+Known problems:
|
|
|
+ - This driver is only for Winbond W83792D C version device, there
|
|
|
+ are also some motherboards with B version W83792D device. The
|
|
|
+ calculation method to in6-in7(measured value, limits) is a little
|
|
|
+ different between C and B version. C or B version can be identified
|
|
|
+ by CR[0x49h].
|
|
|
+ - The function of vid and vrm has not been finished, because I'm NOT
|
|
|
+ very familiar with them. Adding support is welcome.
|
|
|
+ - The function of chassis open detection needs more tests.
|
|
|
+ - If you have ASUS server board and chip was not found: Then you will
|
|
|
+ need to upgrade to latest (or beta) BIOS. If it does not help please
|
|
|
+ contact us.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Fan control
|
|
|
+-----------
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Manual mode
|
|
|
+-----------
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Works as expected. You just need to specify desired PWM/DC value (fan speed)
|
|
|
+in appropriate pwm# file.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Thermal cruise
|
|
|
+--------------
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+In this mode, W83792D provides the Smart Fan system to automatically control
|
|
|
+fan speed to keep the temperatures of CPU and the system within specific
|
|
|
+range. At first a wanted temperature and interval must be set. This is done
|
|
|
+via thermal_cruise# file. The tolerance# file serves to create T +- tolerance
|
|
|
+interval. The fan speed will be lowered as long as the current temperature
|
|
|
+remains below the thermal_cruise# +- tolerance# value. Once the temperature
|
|
|
+exceeds the high limit (T+tolerance), the fan will be turned on with a
|
|
|
+specific speed set by pwm# and automatically controlled its PWM duty cycle
|
|
|
+with the temperature varying. Three conditions may occur:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+(1) If the temperature still exceeds the high limit, PWM duty
|
|
|
+cycle will increase slowly.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+(2) If the temperature goes below the high limit, but still above the low
|
|
|
+limit (T-tolerance), the fan speed will be fixed at the current speed because
|
|
|
+the temperature is in the target range.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+(3) If the temperature goes below the low limit, PWM duty cycle will decrease
|
|
|
+slowly to 0 or a preset stop value until the temperature exceeds the low
|
|
|
+limit. (The preset stop value handling is not yet implemented in driver)
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Smart Fan II
|
|
|
+------------
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+W83792D also provides a special mode for fan. Four temperature points are
|
|
|
+available. When related temperature sensors detects the temperature in preset
|
|
|
+temperature region (sf2_point@_fan# +- tolerance#) it will cause fans to run
|
|
|
+on programmed value from sf2_level@_fan#. You need to set four temperatures
|
|
|
+for each fan.
