There are many different revisions of the - firmware and thus effectivly many different revisions of the uGuru. - Below is an incomplete list with which revisions are used for which - Motherboards: - uGuru 1.00 ~ 1.24 (AI7, KV8-MAX3, AN7) (1) - uGuru 2.0.0.0 ~ 2.0.4.2 (KV8-PRO) - uGuru 2.1.0.0 ~ 2.1.2.8 (AS8, AV8, AA8, AG8, AA8XE, AX8) - uGuru 2.2.0.0 ~ 2.2.0.6 (AA8 Fatal1ty) - uGuru 2.3.0.0 ~ 2.3.0.9 (AN8) - uGuru 3.0.0.0 ~ 3.0.x.x (AW8, AL8, AT8, NI8 SLI, AT8 32X, AN8 32X, - AW9D-MAX) (2) - 1) For revisions 2 and 3 uGuru's the driver can autodetect the - sensortype (Volt or Temp) for bank1 sensors, for revision 1 uGuru's - this does not always work. For these uGuru's the autodetection can - be overridden with the bank1_types module param. For all 3 known - revison 1 motherboards the correct use of this param is: - bank1_types=1,1,0,0,0,0,0,2,0,0,0,0,2,0,0,1 - You may also need to specify the fan_sensors option for these boards - fan_sensors=5 - 2) There is a separate abituguru3 driver for these motherboards, - the abituguru (without the 3 !) driver will not work on these - motherboards (and visa versa)! - -Authors: - Hans de Goede <j.w.r.degoede@hhs.nl>, - (Initial reverse engineering done by Olle Sandberg - <ollebull@gmail.com>) - - -Module Parameters ------------------ - -* force: bool Force detection. Note this parameter only causes the - detection to be skipped, and thus the insmod to - succeed. If the uGuru can't be read the actual hwmon - driver will not load and thus no hwmon device will get - registered. -* bank1_types: int[] Bank1 sensortype autodetection override: - -1 autodetect (default) - 0 volt sensor - 1 temp sensor - 2 not connected -* fan_sensors: int Tell the driver how many fan speed sensors there are - on your motherboard. Default: 0 (autodetect). -* pwms: int Tell the driver how many fan speed controls (fan - pwms) your motherboard has. Default: 0 (autodetect). -* verbose: int How verbose should the driver be? (0-3): - 0 normal output - 1 + verbose error reporting - 2 + sensors type probing info (default) - 3 + retryable error reporting - Default: 2 (the driver is still in the testing phase) - -Notice if you need any of the first three options above please insmod the -driver with verbose set to 3 and mail me <j.w.r.degoede@hhs.nl> the output of: -dmesg | grep abituguru - - -Description ------------ - -This driver supports the hardware monitoring features of the first and -second revision of the Abit uGuru chip found on Abit uGuru featuring -motherboards (most modern Abit motherboards). - -The first and second revision of the uGuru chip in reality is a Winbond -W83L950D in disguise (despite Abit claiming it is "a new microprocessor -designed by the ABIT Engineers"). Unfortunately this doesn't help since the -W83L950D is a generic microcontroller with a custom Abit application running -on it. - -Despite Abit not releasing any information regarding the uGuru, Olle -Sandberg <ollebull@gmail.com> has managed to reverse engineer the sensor part -of the uGuru. Without his work this driver would not have been possible. - -Known Issues ------------- - -The voltage and frequency control parts of the Abit uGuru are not supported. |
