41 The ICH (properly known as the 82801AA), ICH0 (82801AB), ICH2 (82801BA),
42 ICH3 (82801CA/CAM) and later devices are Intel chips that are a part of
43 Intel's '810' chipset for Celeron-based PCs, '810E' chipset for
44 Pentium-based PCs, '815E' chipset, and others.
46 The ICH chips contain at least SEVEN separate PCI functions in TWO logical
47 PCI devices. An output of lspci will show something similar to the
50 00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation: Unknown device 2418 (rev 01)
51 00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation: Unknown device 2410 (rev 01)
52 00:1f.1 IDE interface: Intel Corporation: Unknown device 2411 (rev 01)
53 00:1f.2 USB Controller: Intel Corporation: Unknown device 2412 (rev 01)
54 00:1f.3 Unknown class [0c05]: Intel Corporation: Unknown device 2413 (rev 01)
56 The SMBus controller is function 3 in device 1f. Class 0c05 is SMBus Serial
59 The ICH chips are quite similar to Intel's PIIX4 chip, at least in the
69 I2C Block Read Support
70 ----------------------
72 I2C block read is supported on the 82801EB (ICH5) and later chips.
78 The 82801DB (ICH4) and later chips support several SMBus 2.0 features.
84 If your system has an Intel ICH south bridge, but you do NOT see the
85 SMBus device at 00:1f.3 in lspci, and you can't figure out any way in the
86 BIOS to enable it, it means it has been hidden by the BIOS code. Asus is
87 well known for first doing this on their P4B motherboard, and many other
88 boards after that. Some vendor machines are affected as well.
90 The first thing to try is the "i2c_ec" ACPI driver. It could be that the
91 SMBus was hidden on purpose because it'll be driven by ACPI. If the
92 i2c_ec driver works for you, just forget about the i2c-i801 driver and
93 don't try to unhide the ICH SMBus. Even if i2c_ec doesn't work, you
94 better make sure that the SMBus isn't used by the ACPI code. Try loading
95 the "fan" and "thermal" drivers, and check in /proc/acpi/fan and
96 /proc/acpi/thermal_zone. If you find anything there, it's likely that
97 the ACPI is accessing the SMBus and it's safer not to unhide it. Only
98 once you are certain that ACPI isn't using the SMBus, you can attempt
101 In order to unhide the SMBus, we need to change the value of a PCI
102 register before the kernel enumerates the PCI devices. This is done in
103 drivers/pci/quirks.c, where all affected boards must be listed (see
104 function asus_hides_smbus_hostbridge.) If the SMBus device is missing,
105 and you think there's something interesting on the SMBus (e.g. a
106 hardware monitoring chip), you need to add your board to the list.
108 The motherboard is identified using the subvendor and subdevice IDs of the
109 host bridge PCI device. Get yours with "lspci -n -v -s 00:00.0":
111 00:00.0 Class 0600: 8086:2570 (rev 02)
113 Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0
114 Memory at fc000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=32M]
115 Capabilities: [e4] #09 [2106]
116 Capabilities: [a0] AGP version 3.0
118 Here the host bridge ID is 2570 (82865G/PE/P), the subvendor ID is 1043
119 (Asus) and the subdevice ID is 80f2 (P4P800-X). You can find the symbolic
120 names for the bridge ID and the subvendor ID in include/linux/pci_ids.h,
121 and then add a case for your subdevice ID at the right place in
122 drivers/pci/quirks.c. Then please give it very good testing, to make sure
123 that the unhidden SMBus doesn't conflict with e.g. ACPI.
125 If it works, proves useful (i.e. there are usable chips on the SMBus)
126 and seems safe, please submit a patch for inclusion into the kernel.
128 Note: There's a useful script in lm_sensors 2.10.2 and later, named
129 unhide_ICH_SMBus (in prog/hotplug), which uses the fakephp driver to
130 temporarily unhide the SMBus without having to patch and recompile your
131 kernel. It's very convenient if you just want to check if there's
132 anything interesting on your hidden ICH SMBus.
