I tried to figure out the SMbus adresses. http://www.abload.de/image.php?img=baredit-sidebandeis.jpg This is the register where the adress should be in bits 4:6 whom are all zero. However bit 3 is set and that should mean that the sideband interface is used. http://www.abload.de/image.php?img=sidebandumy.jpg I plan to ask amd for clarification and for that SBI document they rerefer to. I also plan to RMA my cpu btw. > > > Information about the SBI SMBus register address can be read from the > > pci register F3x1E8. lspci does not output values beyond 0xFF. > > It does :) You only have to swap the bytes yourself due to x86 being > little-endian.

But under linux only the address space from 0x00-0xFF is accesible thru /proc/bus/pci... I tried to access 0x1E4 that way setpci -s 0:18.3 0x1E4.l and only got 0xFFFFFFFF back. Same happens if i try to read from /proc/bus/pci/00/18.3 direct (with a small python script). I tried to read out 0x6e with the -r option. It is possible to read the following areas without making the smbus controler nonfunctional. 0x00-0x7F, 0x80-0x9d,0xa0-0xbd,0xc0-0xdd,0xe0-0xfd ALso i tried to run sensors-detect with excluding 0x2e,0x6e and 0x47. It passed but afterwards I had to restart to get rid of the XX'es in the i2cdump. -------------- next part -------------- debian-9850:/home/achim# sensors-detect # sensors-detect revision 5108 (2008-01-22 13:22:47 +0100) This program will help you determine which kernel modules you need to load to use lm_sensors most effectively. It is generally safe and recommended to accept the default answers to all questions, unless you know what you're doing. We can start with probing for (PCI) I2C or SMBus adapters. Do you want to probe now? (YES/no): Probing for PCI bus adapters... Use driver `i2c-piix4' for device 0000:00:14.0: ATI Technologies Inc SB600 SMBus We will now try to load each adapter module in turn. Module `i2c-piix4' already loaded. If you have undetectable or unsupported adapters, you can have them scanned by manually loading the modules before running this script. To continue, we need module `i2c-dev' to be loaded. Do you want to load `i2c-dev' now? (YES/no): Module loaded successfully. We are now going to do the I2C/SMBus adapter probings. Some chips may be double detected; we choose the one with the highest confidence value in that case. If you found that the adapter hung after probing a certain address, you can specify that address to remain unprobed. Next adapter: SMBus PIIX4 adapter at 0b00 (i2c-0) Do you want to scan it? (YES/no/selectively): selectively Please enter one or more addresses not to scan. Separate them with comma's. You can specify a range by using dashes. Addresses may be decimal (like 54) or hexadecimal (like 0x33). Addresses: 0x2e,0x6e,0x47 Client found at address 0x4c Probing for `National Semiconductor LM75'...
