On trying to "modprobe i2c-piix4" I get: [ 209.488778] ACPI Warning: SystemIO range 0x0000000000000B00-0x0000000000000B08 conflicts with OpRegion 0x0000000000000B00-0x0000000000000B0F (\GSA1.SMBI) (20210604/utaddress-204) [ 209.488791] ACPI: OSL: Resource conflict; ACPI support missing from driver? The purpose of this attempt is to use I2C SMBUS to read a temp sensor on the ECC DIMM. This same approach works on a different AMD AM4 motherboard, but this is a Gigabyte AMD X399 Threadripper motherboard. Now I understand that this warning is a safety warning, because if the BIOS ACPI and Linux userspace tried to access the EEPROM SPD on the DIMM at the same time, hardware damage might result. So, my question is, who should I ask to get enough documentation or hints, so that I could modify the source code to make this work safely. DMI: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd.
