14 | Module Parameters | |
15 | ----------------- | |
16 | ||
17 | * force_start: bool Enables the monitoring of voltage, fan and temp inputs | |
18 | and PWM output control functions. Using this parameter | |
19 | shouldn't be required since the BIOS usually takes care | |
20 | of this. | |
21 | ||
22 | Note that there is no need to use this parameter if the driver loads without | |
23 | complaining. The driver will say so if it is necessary. | |
24 | ||
25 | ||
26 | Description | |
27 | ----------- | |
28 | ||
29 | This driver implements support for the hardware monitoring capabilities of the | |
30 | SMSC DME1737 and Asus A8000 (which are the same) Super-I/O chips. This chip | |
31 | features monitoring of 3 temp sensors temp[1-3] (2 remote diodes and 1 | |
32 | internal), 7 voltages in[0-6] (6 external and 1 internal) and 6 fan speeds | |
33 | fan[1-6]. Additionally, the chip implements 5 PWM outputs pwm[1-3,5-6] for | |
34 | controlling fan speeds both manually and automatically. | |
35 | ||
36 | Fan[3-6] and pwm[3,5-6] are optional features and their availability is | |
37 | dependent on the configuration of the chip. The driver will detect which | |
38 | features are present during initialization and create the sysfs attributes | |
39 | accordingly. | |
40 | ||
41 | ||
42 | Voltage Monitoring | |
43 | ------------------ | |
44 | ||
45 | The voltage inputs are sampled with 12-bit resolution and have internal | |
46 | scaling resistors. The values returned by the driver therefore reflect true | |
47 | millivolts and don't need scaling. The voltage inputs are mapped as follows | |
48 | (the last column indicates the input ranges): | |
49 | ||
50 | in0: +5VTR (+5V standby) 0V - 6.64V | |
51 | in1: Vccp (processor core) 0V - 3V | |
52 | in2: VCC (internal +3.3V) 0V - 4.38V | |
53 | in3: +5V 0V - 6.64V | |
54 | in4: +12V 0V - 16V | |
55 | in5: VTR (+3.3V standby) 0V - 4.38V | |
56 | in6: Vbat (+3.0V) 0V - 4.38V | |
57 | ||
58 | Each voltage input has associated min and max limits which trigger an alarm | |
59 | when crossed. | |
60 | ||
61 | ||
62 | Temperature Monitoring | |
63 | ---------------------- | |
64 | ||
65 | Temperatures are measured with 12-bit resolution and reported in millidegree | |
66 | Celsius. The chip also features offsets for all 3 temperature inputs which - | |
67 | when programmed - get added to the input readings. The chip does all the | |
68 | scaling by itself and the driver therefore reports true temperatures that don't | |
69 | need any user-space adjustments. The temperature inputs are mapped as follows | |
70 | (the last column indicates the input ranges): | |
71 | ||
72 | temp1: Remote diode 1 (3904 type) temperature -127C - +127C | |
73 | temp2: DME1737 internal temperature -127C - +127C | |
74 | temp3: Remote diode 2 (3904 type) temperature -127C - +127C | |
75 | ||
76 | Each temperature input has associated min and max limits which trigger an alarm | |
77 | when crossed. Additionally, each temperature input has a fault attribute that | |
78 | returns 1 when a faulty diode or an unconnected input is detected and 0 | |
79 | otherwise. | |
80 | ||
81 | ||
82 | Fan Monitoring | |
83 | -------------- | |
84 | ||
85 | Fan RPMs are measured with 16-bit resolution. The chip provides inputs for 6 | |
86 | fan tachometers. All 6 inputs have an associated min limit which triggers an | |
87 | alarm when crossed. Fan inputs 1-4 provide type attributes that need to be set | |
88 | to the number of pulses per fan revolution that the connected tachometer | |
89 | generates. Supported values are 1, 2, and 4. Fan inputs 5-6 only support fans | |
90 | that generate 2 pulses per revolution. Fan inputs 5-6 also provide a max | |
91 | attribute that needs to be set to the maximum attainable RPM (fan at 100% duty- | |
92 | cycle) of the input. The chip adjusts the sampling rate based on this value. | |
93 | ||
94 | ||
95 | PWM Output Control | |
96 | ------------------ | |
97 | ||
98 | This chip features 5 PWM outputs. PWM outputs 1-3 are associated with fan | |
99 | inputs 1-3 and PWM outputs 5-6 are associated with fan inputs 5-6. PWM outputs | |
100 | 1-3 can be configured to operate either in manual or automatic mode by setting | |
101 | the appropriate enable attribute accordingly. PWM outputs 5-6 can only operate | |
102 | in manual mode, their enable attributes are therefore read-only. When set to | |
103 | manual mode, the fan speed is set by writing the duty-cycle value to the | |
104 | appropriate PWM attribute. In automatic mode, the PWM attribute returns the | |
105 | current duty-cycle as set by the fan controller in the chip. All PWM outputs | |
106 | support the setting of the output frequency via the freq attribute. | |
107 | ||
108 | In automatic mode, the chip supports the setting of the PWM ramp rate which | |
109 | defines how fast the PWM output is adjusting to changes of the associated | |
110 | temperature input. Associating PWM outputs to temperature inputs is done via | |
111 | temperature zones. The chip features 3 zones whose assignments to temperature | |
112 | inputs is static and determined during initialization. These assignments can | |
113 | be retrieved via the zone[1-3]_auto_channels_temp attributes. Each PWM output | |
114 | is assigned to one (or hottest of multiple) temperature zone(s) through the | |
115 | pwm[1-3]_auto_channels_zone attributes. Each PWM output has 3 distinct output | |
116 | duty-cycles: full, low, and min. Full is internally hard-wired to 255 (100%) | |
117 | and low and min can be programmed via pwm[1-3]_auto_point1_pwm and | |
118 | pwm[1-3]_auto_pwm_min, respectively. The thermal thresholds of the zones are | |
119 | programmed via zone[1-3]_auto_point[1-3]_temp and | |
120 | zone[1-3]_auto_point1_temp_hyst: | |
121 | ||
122 | pwm[1-3]_auto_point2_pwm full-speed duty-cycle (255, i.e., 100%) | |
123 | pwm[1-3]_auto_point1_pwm low-speed duty-cycle | |
124 | pwm[1-3]_auto_pwm_min min-speed duty-cycle | |
125 | ||
126 | zone[1-3]_auto_point3_temp full-speed temp (all outputs) | |
127 | zone[1-3]_auto_point2_temp full-speed temp | |
128 | zone[1-3]_auto_point1_temp low-speed temp | |
129 | zone[1-3]_auto_point1_temp_hyst min-speed temp | |
130 | ||
131 | The chip adjusts the output duty-cycle linearly in the range of auto_point1_pwm | |
132 | to auto_point2_pwm if the temperature of the associated zone is between | |
133 | auto_point1_temp and auto_point2_temp. If the temperature drops below the | |
134 | auto_point1_temp_hyst value, the output duty-cycle is set to the auto_pwm_min | |
135 | value which only supports two values: 0 or auto_point1_pwm. That means that the | |
136 | fan either turns completely off or keeps spinning with the low-speed | |
137 | duty-cycle. If any of the temperatures rise above the auto_point3_temp value, | |
138 | all PWM outputs are set to 100% duty-cycle. | |
139 | ||
140 | Following is another representation of how the chip sets the output duty-cycle | |
141 | based on the temperature of the associated thermal zone: | |
142 | ||
143 | Duty-Cycle Duty-Cycle | |
144 | Temperature Rising Temp Falling Temp | |

146 | full-speed full-speed full-speed | |
