I have an ASRock board that uses a newer Nuvoton W83677HG-I Super I/O
chip. I would like to help develop (or get help developing) a set of
drivers for this chip. It is similar to previous versions of Nuvoton
chips like the W83627 series. I found the sensor drivers from Guenter
Roeck (Thank You) that are intended for the W83627 series. I was hoping
to build on these, but I don't know enough about how kernel modules work
to proceed.
The manufacturer was helpful in providing documentation for this chip,
the W83627UHG, and the W83627DHG-P. Comparing the devices, I noticed
that many of the data formats and I/O methods are the same, So I hope
that my new chip can be added in fairly easily.
I have experience writing in C, but most of programming my practice has
been in writing programs to process data stored in files. Device I/O is
a new field for me. Any suggestions on how to proceed, and good sources
for information on developing a module for this chip would be
appreciated. Thank you.
