27-----------------
28
29* init boolean
30 (default 0)
31 Use 'init=1' to have the driver do extra software initializations.
32 The default behavior is to do the minimum initialization possible
33 and depend on the BIOS to properly setup the chip. If you know you
34 have a w83791d and you're having problems, try init=1 before trying
35 reset=1.
36
37* reset boolean
38 (default 0)
39 Use 'reset=1' to reset the chip (via index 0x40, bit 7). The default
40 behavior is no chip reset to preserve BIOS settings.
41
42* force_subclients=bus,caddr,saddr,saddr
43 This is used to force the i2c addresses for subclients of
44 a certain chip. Example usage is `force_subclients=0,0x2f,0x4a,0x4b'
45 to force the subclients of chip 0x2f on bus 0 to i2c addresses
46 0x4a and 0x4b.

Charles Spirakis125751c2006-09-24 20:53:04 +020052This driver implements support for the Winbond W83791D chip. The W83791G
53chip appears to be the same as the W83791D but is lead free.
Charles Spirakis98739642006-04-25 14:21:03 +020054
55Detection of the chip can sometimes be foiled because it can be in an
56internal state that allows no clean access (Bank with ID register is not
57currently selected). If you know the address of the chip, use a 'force'
58parameter; this will put it into a more well-behaved state first.
59
60The driver implements three temperature sensors, five fan rotation speed
61sensors, and ten voltage sensors.
62
63Temperatures are measured in degrees Celsius and measurement resolution is 1
64degC for temp1 and 0.5 degC for temp2 and temp3. An alarm is triggered when
65the temperature gets higher than the Overtemperature Shutdown value; it stays
66on until the temperature falls below the Hysteresis value.
67
68Fan rotation speeds are reported in RPM (rotations per minute). An alarm is
69triggered if the rotation speed has dropped below a programmable limit. Fan
70readings can be divided by a programmable divider (1, 2, 4, 8 for fan 1/2/3
71and 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64 or 128 for fan 4/5) to give the readings more
72range or accuracy.
73
74Voltage sensors (also known as IN sensors) report their values in millivolts.
75An alarm is triggered if the voltage has crossed a programmable minimum
76or maximum limit.
77
Charles Spirakis125751c2006-09-24 20:53:04 +020078The bit ordering for the alarm "realtime status register" and the
79"beep enable registers" are different.

104
105*** NOTE: It is the responsibility of user-space code to handle the fact
106that the beep enable and alarm bits are in different positions when using that
107feature of the chip.

109When an alarm goes off, you can be warned by a beeping signal through your
110computer speaker. It is possible to enable all beeping globally, or only
111the beeping for some alarms.
112
113The driver only reads the chip values each 3 seconds; reading them more
114often will do no harm, but will return 'old' values.
