14Module Parameters
15-----------------
16
17* init int
18 (default 1)
19 Use 'init=0' to bypass initializing the chip.
20 Try this if your computer crashes when you load the module.
21
22* force_subclients=bus,caddr,saddr,saddr
23 This is used to force the i2c addresses for subclients of
24 a certain chip. Example usage is `force_subclients=0,0x2f,0x4a,0x4b'
25 to force the subclients of chip 0x2f on bus 0 to i2c addresses
26 0x4a and 0x4b.

29Description
30-----------
31
32This driver implements support for the Winbond W83792AD/D.
33
34Detection of the chip can sometimes be foiled because it can be in an
35internal state that allows no clean access (Bank with ID register is not
36currently selected). If you know the address of the chip, use a 'force'
37parameter; this will put it into a more well-behaved state first.
38
39The driver implements three temperature sensors, seven fan rotation speed
40sensors, nine voltage sensors, and two automatic fan regulation
41strategies called: Smart Fan I (Thermal Cruise mode) and Smart Fan II.
42Automatic fan control mode is possible only for fan1-fan3. Fan4-fan7 can run
43synchronized with selected fan (fan1-fan3). This functionality and manual PWM
44control for fan4-fan7 is not yet implemented.
45
46Temperatures are measured in degrees Celsius and measurement resolution is 1
47degC for temp1 and 0.5 degC for temp2 and temp3. An alarm is triggered when
48the temperature gets higher than the Overtemperature Shutdown value; it stays
49on until the temperature falls below the Hysteresis value.
50
51Fan rotation speeds are reported in RPM (rotations per minute). An alarm is
52triggered if the rotation speed has dropped below a programmable limit. Fan
53readings can be divided by a programmable divider (1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64 or
54128) to give the readings more range or accuracy.
55
56Voltage sensors (also known as IN sensors) report their values in millivolts.
57An alarm is triggered if the voltage has crossed a programmable minimum
58or maximum limit.
59
60Alarms are provided as output from "realtime status register". Following bits
61are defined:
62
63bit - alarm on:
640 - in0
651 - in1
662 - temp1
673 - temp2
684 - temp3
695 - fan1
706 - fan2
717 - fan3
728 - in2
739 - in3
7410 - in4
7511 - in5
7612 - in6
7713 - VID change
7814 - chassis
7915 - fan7
8016 - tart1
8117 - tart2
8218 - tart3
8319 - in7
8420 - in8
8521 - fan4
8622 - fan5
8723 - fan6
88
89Tart will be asserted while target temperature cannot be achieved after 3 minutes
90of full speed rotation of corresponding fan.
91
92In addition to the alarms described above, there is a CHAS alarm on the chips
93which triggers if your computer case is open (This one is latched, contrary
94to realtime alarms).
95
96The chips only update values each 3 seconds; reading them more often will
97do no harm, but will return 'old' values.

100W83792D PROBLEMS
101----------------
102Known problems:
103 - This driver is only for Winbond W83792D C version device, there
104 are also some motherboards with B version W83792D device. The
105 calculation method to in6-in7(measured value, limits) is a little
106 different between C and B version. C or B version can be identified
107 by CR[0x49h].
108 - The function of vid and vrm has not been finished, because I'm NOT
109 very familiar with them. Adding support is welcome.
