| 7 | Addresses scanned: ISA 0x0E0 |
| 8 | Datasheet: Not available, this driver is based on reverse engineering. |
| 9 | A "Datasheet" has been written based on the reverse engineering it |
| 10 | should be available in the same dir as this file under the name |

| 13 | The uGuru is a microcontroller with onboard firmware which programs |
| 14 | it to behave as a hwmon IC. There are many different revisions of the |
| 15 | firmware and thus effectivly many different revisions of the uGuru. |
| 16 | Below is an incomplete list with which revisions are used for which |
| 17 | Motherboards: |
| 18 | uGuru 1.00 ~ 1.24 (AI7, KV8-MAX3, AN7) (1) |
| 19 | uGuru 2.0.0.0 ~ 2.0.4.2 (KV8-PRO) |
| 20 | uGuru 2.1.0.0 ~ 2.1.2.8 (AS8, AV8, AA8, AG8, AA8XE, AX8) |
| 21 | uGuru 2.2.0.0 ~ 2.2.0.6 (AA8 Fatal1ty) |
| 22 | uGuru 2.3.0.0 ~ 2.3.0.9 (AN8) |
Hans de Goede | 3faa1ff | 2007-06-17 00:28:45 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 23 | uGuru 3.0.0.0 ~ 3.0.x.x (AW8, AL8, AT8, NI8 SLI, AT8 32X, AN8 32X, |
| 24 | AW9D-MAX) (2) |
Hans de Goede | 5cab828 | 2006-07-05 18:09:09 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 25 | 1) For revisions 2 and 3 uGuru's the driver can autodetect the |
| 26 | sensortype (Volt or Temp) for bank1 sensors, for revision 1 uGuru's |
| 27 | this doesnot always work. For these uGuru's the autodection can |
| 28 | be overriden with the bank1_types module param. For all 3 known |
| 29 | revison 1 motherboards the correct use of this param is: |
| 30 | bank1_types=1,1,0,0,0,0,0,2,0,0,0,0,2,0,0,1 |
| 31 | You may also need to specify the fan_sensors option for these boards |
| 32 | fan_sensors=5 |
Daniel Mack | 3ad2f3fb | 2010-02-03 08:01:28 +0800 | [diff] [blame] | 33 | 2) There is a separate abituguru3 driver for these motherboards, |
Hans de Goede | 3faa1ff | 2007-06-17 00:28:45 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 34 | the abituguru (without the 3 !) driver will not work on these |
| 35 | motherboards (and visa versa)! |

| 43 | Module Parameters |
| 44 | ----------------- |
| 45 | |
| 46 | * force: bool Force detection. Note this parameter only causes the |
Hans de Goede | 3faa1ff | 2007-06-17 00:28:45 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 47 | detection to be skipped, and thus the insmod to |
| 48 | succeed. If the uGuru can't be read the actual hwmon |
| 49 | driver will not load and thus no hwmon device will get |
| 50 | registered. |
Hans de Goede | 5cab828 | 2006-07-05 18:09:09 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 51 | * bank1_types: int[] Bank1 sensortype autodetection override: |
| 52 | -1 autodetect (default) |
| 53 | 0 volt sensor |
| 54 | 1 temp sensor |
| 55 | 2 not connected |
Hans de Goede | f2b84bb | 2006-06-04 20:22:24 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 56 | * fan_sensors: int Tell the driver how many fan speed sensors there are |
| 57 | on your motherboard. Default: 0 (autodetect). |
| 58 | * pwms: int Tell the driver how many fan speed controls (fan |
| 59 | pwms) your motherboard has. Default: 0 (autodetect). |
| 60 | * verbose: int How verbose should the driver be? (0-3): |
| 61 | 0 normal output |
| 62 | 1 + verbose error reporting |
Hans de Goede | 5cab828 | 2006-07-05 18:09:09 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 63 | 2 + sensors type probing info (default) |
Hans de Goede | f2b84bb | 2006-06-04 20:22:24 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 64 | 3 + retryable error reporting |
| 65 | Default: 2 (the driver is still in the testing phase) |
| 66 | |
| 67 | Notice if you need any of the first three options above please insmod the |
| 68 | driver with verbose set to 3 and mail me <j.w.r.degoede@hhs.nl> the output of: |

Hans de Goede | 3faa1ff | 2007-06-17 00:28:45 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 75 | This driver supports the hardware monitoring features of the first and |
| 76 | second revision of the Abit uGuru chip found on Abit uGuru featuring |
| 77 | motherboards (most modern Abit motherboards). |

Hans de Goede | 3faa1ff | 2007-06-17 00:28:45 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 79 | The first and second revision of the uGuru chip in reality is a Winbond |
| 80 | W83L950D in disguise (despite Abit claiming it is "a new microprocessor |
Lucas De Marchi | 25985ed | 2011-03-30 22:57:33 -0300 | [diff] [blame] | 81 | designed by the ABIT Engineers"). Unfortunately this doesn't help since the |
Hans de Goede | 3faa1ff | 2007-06-17 00:28:45 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 82 | W83L950D is a generic microcontroller with a custom Abit application running |
| 83 | on it. |

| 85 | Despite Abit not releasing any information regarding the uGuru, Olle |
| 86 | Sandberg <ollebull@gmail.com> has managed to reverse engineer the sensor part |
| 87 | of the uGuru. Without his work this driver would not have been possible. |
| 88 | |
| 89 | Known Issues |
| 90 | ------------ |
| 91 | |
| 92 | The voltage and frequency control parts of the Abit uGuru are not supported. |
