Urgent: need some more info about the Hadess IC

Hey Hans,

thats correct. The watchdog stuff has changed too. Sorry for that mistake.

0x20 => 5V Actual
0x21 => 12V Actual
0x22 => Bat Actual

0x28 => WD Control
0x29 => WD Status
0x2A => WD PreSet

As syleus has it (except the new voltages).
I've double checked the rest against the fschmd.c I got from you. The rest is correct!


DMI in3-in5:
I'm checking the stuff and I think you'll get new informations on Monday.
Anyway, what BIOS Ver. do you have? Perhaps the voltages are missing there.

Ciao Thilo

Hi,

Some time ago we mailed about the Hadess management IC. You said it was 100% identical to the Heimdall except for the voltage registers, which should be 0x20 - 0x22.

This cannot be right, as this would give us the following register definitions for the Hadess:

#define FSCHMD_REG_WDOG_PRESET		0x28
#define FSCHMD_REG_WDOG_STATE		0x23
#define FSCHMD_REG_WDOG_CONTROL		0x21

static const u8 FSCHMD_REG_VOLT[3] = { 0x20, 0x21, 0x22 };

Notice that register 0x21 now is seen as both a voltage register and the watchdog control register, which cannot be right. Can you please check if the watchdog registers perhaps have changed with the Hadess too ?

And if possible double check nothing else has changed?

I put urgent in the subject, because I would like to get the Hadess support in to kernel-2.6.30, and the merge window for that has just opened (and doesn't stay open all that long).

Thanks & Regards,

Hans


p.s.

2.6.30 will come with DMI based detection (so auto loading) of the Hermes and Syleus drivers, and with Syleus support, leading to 100% plug and play hwmon support for FSC systems with those hwmon IC's :)
