+Module parameters
|
|
|
+-----------------
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+* reset int
|
|
|
+ (default 0)
|
|
|
+ This parameter is not recommended, it will lose motherboard specific
|
|
|
+ settings. Use 'reset=1' to reset the chip when loading this module.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+* force_subclients=bus,caddr,saddr1,saddr2
|
|
|
+ This is used to force the i2c addresses for subclients of
|
|
|
+ a certain chip. Typical 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 Winbond W83793G/W83793R chips.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+* Exported features
|
|
|
+ This driver exports 10 voltage sensors, up to 12 fan tachometer inputs,
|
|
|
+ 6 remote temperatures, up to 8 sets of PWM fan controls, SmartFan
|
|
|
+ (automatic fan speed control) on all temperature/PWM combinations, 2
|
|
|
+ sets of 6-pin CPU VID input.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+* Sensor resolutions
|
|
|
+ If your motherboard maker used the reference design, the resolution of
|
|
|
+ voltage0-2 is 2mV, resolution of voltage3/4/5 is 16mV, 8mV for voltage6,
|
|
|
+ 24mV for voltage7/8. Temp1-4 have a 0.25 degree Celsius resolution,
|
|
|
+ temp5-6 have a 1 degree Celsiis resolution.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+* Temperature sensor types
|
|
|
+ Temp1-4 have 3 possible types. It can be read from (and written to)
|
|
|
+ temp[1-4]_type.
|
|
|
+ - If the value of 0, the related temperature channel stops
|
|
|
+ monitoring.
|
|
|
+ - If the value is 3, it starts monitoring using a remote termal diode
|
|
|
+ (default).
|
|
|
+ - If the value is 5, it starts monitoring using the temperature sensor
|
|
|
+ in AMD CPU and get result by AMDSI.
|
|
|
+ - If the value is 6, it starts monitoring using the temperature sensor
|
|
|
+ in Intel CPU and get result by PECI.
|
|
|
+ Temp5-6 can be connected to external thermistors (value of
|
|
|
+ temp[5-6]_type is 4). They can also be disabled (value is 0).
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+* Alarm mechanism
|
|
|
+ For voltage sensors, an alarm triggers if the measured value is below
|
|
|
+ the low voltage limit or over the high voltage limit.
|
|
|
+ For temperature sensors, an alarm triggers if the measured value goes
|
|
|
+ above the high temperature limit, and wears off only after the measured
|
|
|
+ value drops below the hysteresis value.
|
|
|
+ For fan sensors, an alarm triggers if the measured value is below the
|
|
|
+ low speed limit.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+* SmartFan/PWM control
|
|
|
+ If you want to set a pwm fan to manual mode, you just need to make sure it
|
|
|
+ is not controlled by any temp channel, for example, you want to set fan1
|
|
|
+ to manual mode, you need to check the value of temp[1-6]_fan_map, make
|
|
|
+ sure bit 0 is cleared in the 6 values. And then set the pwm1 value to
|
|
|
+ control the fan.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ Each temperature channel can control all the 8 PWM outputs (by setting the
|
|
|
+ corresponding bit in tempX_fan_map), you can set the temperature channel
|
|
|
+ mode using temp[1-6]_pwm_enable, 2 is Thermal Cruise mode and 3
|
|
|
+ is the SmartFanII mode. Temperature channels will try to speed up or
|
|
|
+ slow down all controlled fans, this means one fan can receive different
|
|
|
+ PWM value requests from different temperature channels, but the chip
|
|
|
+ will always pick the safest (max) PWM value for each fan.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ In Thermal Cruise mode, the chip attempts to keep the temperature at a
|
|
|
+ predefined value, within a tolerance margin. So if tempX_input >
|
|
|
+ thermal_cruiseX + toleranceX, the chip will increase the PWM value,
|
|
|
+ if tempX_input < thermal_cruiseX - toleranceX, the chip will decrease
|
|
|
+ the PWM value. If the temperature is within the tolerance range, the PWM
|
|
|
+ value is left unchanged.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ SmartFanII works differently, you have to define up to 7 PWM, temperature
|
|
|
+ trip points, defining a PWM/temperature curve which the chip will follow.
|
|
|
+ While not fundamentally different from the Thermal Cruise mode, the
|
|
|
+ implementation is quite different, giving you a finer-grained control.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+* Chassis
|
|
|
+ If the case open alarm triggers, it will stay in this state unless cleared
|
|
|
+ by any write to the sysfs file "chassis".
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+* VID and VRM
|
|
|
+ The VRM version is detected automatically, don't modify the it unless you
|
|
|
+ *do* know the cpu VRM version and it's not properly detected.
|
|

|
|
+Notes
|
|
|
+-----
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ Only Fan1-5 and PWM1-3 are guaranteed to always exist, other fan inputs and
|
|
|
+ PWM outputs may or may not exist depending on the chip pin configuration.
