-Module Parameters
------------------
-
-* init: integer
- Set to non-zero to force some initializations (default is 0).
-* disable_block: integer
- A "0" allows SMBus block data transactions if the host supports them. A "1"
- disables SMBus block data transactions. The default is 0.
-* vccp_limit_type: integer array (2)
- Configures in7 and in8 limit type, where 0 means absolute and non-zero
- means relative. "Relative" here refers to "Dynamic Vccp Monitoring using
- VID" from the datasheet. It greatly simplifies the interface to allow
- only one set of limits (absolute or relative) to be in operation at a
- time (even though the hardware is capable of enabling both). There's
- not a compelling use case for enabling both at once, anyway. The default
- is "0,0".
-* vid_agtl: integer
- A "0" configures the VID pins for V(ih) = 2.1V min, V(il) = 0.8V max.
- A "1" configures the VID pins for V(ih) = 0.8V min, V(il) = 0.4V max.
- (The latter setting is referred to as AGTL+ Compatible in the datasheet.)
- I.e. this parameter controls the VID pin input thresholds; if your VID
- inputs are not working, try changing this. The default value is "0".
-
-
-Hardware Description
---------------------
-
-(from the datasheet)
-
-The LM93 hardware monitor has a two wire digital interface compatible with
-SMBus 2.0. Using an 8-bit ADC, the LM93 measures the temperature of two remote
-diode connected transistors as well as its own die and 16 power supply
-voltages. To set fan speed, the LM93 has two PWM outputs that are each
-controlled by up to four temperature zones. The fancontrol algorithm is lookup
-table based. The LM93 includes a digital filter that can be invoked to smooth
-temperature readings for better control of fan speed. The LM93 has four
-tachometer inputs to measure fan speed. Limit and status registers for all
-measured values are included. The LM93 builds upon the functionality of
-previous motherboard management ASICs and uses some of the LM85's features
-(i.e. smart tachometer mode). It also adds measurement and control support
-for dynamic Vccp monitoring and PROCHOT. It is designed to monitor a dual
-processor Xeon class motherboard with a minimum of external components.
-
-LM94 is also supported in LM93 compatible mode. Extra sensors and features of
-LM94 are not supported.
-
-
-User Interface
---------------
-
-#PROCHOT
-^^^^^^^^
-
-The LM93 can monitor two #PROCHOT signals. The results are found in the
-sysfs files prochot1, prochot2, prochot1_avg, prochot2_avg, prochot1_max,
-and prochot2_max. prochot1_max and prochot2_max contain the user limits
-for #PROCHOT1 and #PROCHOT2, respectively. prochot1 and prochot2 contain
-the current readings for the most recent complete time interval. The
-value of prochot1_avg and prochot2_avg is something like a 2 period
-exponential moving average (but not quite - check the datasheet). Note
-that this third value is calculated by the chip itself. All values range
-from 0-255 where 0 indicates no throttling, and 255 indicates > 99.6%.
-
-The monitoring intervals for the two #PROCHOT signals is also configurable.
-These intervals can be found in the sysfs files prochot1_interval and
-prochot2_interval. The values in these files specify the intervals for
-#P1_PROCHOT and #P2_PROCHOT, respectively. Selecting a value not in this
-list will cause the driver to use the next largest interval. The available
-intervals are (in seconds):
-
-#PROCHOT intervals:
- 0.73, 1.46, 2.9, 5.8, 11.7, 23.3, 46.6, 93.2, 186, 372
-
-It is possible to configure the LM93 to logically short the two #PROCHOT
-signals. I.e. when #P1_PROCHOT is asserted, the LM93 will automatically
-assert #P2_PROCHOT, and vice-versa. This mode is enabled by writing a
-non-zero integer to the sysfs file prochot_short.
-
-The LM93 can also override the #PROCHOT pins by driving a PWM signal onto
-one or both of them. When overridden, the signal has a period of 3.56 ms,
-a minimum pulse width of 5 clocks (at 22.5kHz => 6.25% duty cycle), and
-a maximum pulse width of 80 clocks (at 22.5kHz => 99.88% duty cycle).
-
-The sysfs files prochot1_override and prochot2_override contain boolean
-integers which enable or disable the override function for #P1_PROCHOT and
-#P2_PROCHOT, respectively. The sysfs file prochot_override_duty_cycle
-contains a value controlling the duty cycle for the PWM signal used when
-the override function is enabled. This value ranges from 0 to 15, with 0
-indicating minimum duty cycle and 15 indicating maximum.
-
-#VRD_HOT
-^^^^^^^^
-
-The LM93 can monitor two #VRD_HOT signals. The results are found in the
-sysfs files vrdhot1 and vrdhot2. There is one value per file: a boolean for
-which 1 indicates #VRD_HOT is asserted and 0 indicates it is negated. These
-files are read-only.
-
-Smart Tach Mode (from the datasheet)::
-
- If a fan is driven using a low-side drive PWM, the tachometer
- output of the fan is corrupted. The LM93 includes smart tachometer
- circuitry that allows an accurate tachometer reading to be
- achieved despite the signal corruption. In smart tach mode all
- four signals are measured within 4 seconds.
-
-Smart tach mode is enabled by the driver by writing 1 or 2 (associating the
-the fan tachometer with a pwm) to the sysfs file fan<n>_smart_tach. A zero
-will disable the function for that fan. Note that Smart tach mode cannot be
-enabled if the PWM output frequency is 22500 Hz (see below).
-
-Manual PWM
-^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The LM93 has a fixed or override mode for the two PWM outputs (although, there
-are still some conditions that will override even this mode - see section
-15.10.6 of the datasheet for details.) The sysfs files pwm1_override
-and pwm2_override are used to enable this mode; each is a boolean integer
-where 0 disables and 1 enables the manual control mode. The sysfs files pwm1
-and pwm2 are used to set the manual duty cycle; each is an integer (0-255)
-where 0 is 0% duty cycle, and 255 is 100%. Note that the duty cycle values
-are constrained by the hardware. Selecting a value which is not available
-will cause the driver to use the next largest value. Also note: when manual
-PWM mode is disabled, the value of pwm1 and pwm2 indicates the current duty
-cycle chosen by the h/w.
-
-PWM Output Frequency
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The LM93 supports several different frequencies for the PWM output channels.
-The sysfs files pwm1_freq and pwm2_freq are used to select the frequency. The
-frequency values are constrained by the hardware. Selecting a value which is
-not available will cause the driver to use the next largest value. Also note
-that this parameter has implications for the Smart Tach Mode (see above).
-
-PWM Output Frequencies (in Hz):
- 12, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 22500 (default)
-
-Automatic PWM
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The LM93 is capable of complex automatic fan control, with many different
-points of configuration. To start, each PWM output can be bound to any
-combination of eight control sources. The final PWM is the largest of all
-individual control sources to which the PWM output is bound.
-
-The eight control sources are: temp1-temp4 (aka "zones" in the datasheet),
-#PROCHOT 1 & 2, and #VRDHOT 1 & 2. The bindings are expressed as a bitmask
-in the sysfs files pwm<n>_auto_channels, where a "1" enables the binding, and
-a "0" disables it. The h/w default is 0x0f (all temperatures bound).
-
- ====== ===========
- 0x01 Temp 1
- 0x02 Temp 2
- 0x04 Temp 3
- 0x08 Temp 4
- 0x10 #PROCHOT 1
- 0x20 #PROCHOT 2
- 0x40 #VRDHOT 1
- 0x80 #VRDHOT 2
- ====== ===========
-
-The function y = f(x) takes a source temperature x to a PWM output y. This
-function of the LM93 is derived from a base temperature and a table of 12
-temperature offsets. The base temperature is expressed in degrees C in the
-sysfs files temp<n>_auto_base. The offsets are expressed in cumulative
-degrees C, with the value of offset <i> for temperature value <n> being
-contained in the file temp<n>_auto_offset<i>. E.g. if the base temperature
-is 40C:
-
- ========== ======================= =============== =======
- offset # temp<n>_auto_offset<i> range pwm
- ========== ======================= =============== =======
- 1 0 - 25.00%
- 2 0 - 28.57%
- 3 1 40C - 41C 32.14%
- 4 1 41C - 42C 35.71%
- 5 2 42C - 44C 39.29%
- 6 2 44C - 46C 42.86%
- 7 2 48C - 50C 46.43%
- 8 2 50C - 52C 50.00%
- 9 2 52C - 54C 53.57%
- 10 2 54C - 56C 57.14%
- 11 2 56C - 58C 71.43%
- 12 2 58C - 60C 85.71%
- - - > 60C 100.00%
- ========== ======================= =============== =======
-
-Valid offsets are in the range 0C <= x <= 7.5C in 0.5C increments.
-
-There is an independent base temperature for each temperature channel. Note,
-however, there are only two tables of offsets: one each for temp[12] and
-temp[34]. Therefore, any change to e.g. temp1_auto_offset<i> will also
-affect temp2_auto_offset<i>.
-
-The LM93 can also apply hysteresis to the offset table, to prevent unwanted
-oscillation between two steps in the offsets table. These values are found in
-the sysfs files temp<n>_auto_offset_hyst. The value in this file has the
-same representation as in temp<n>_auto_offset<i>.
-
-If a temperature reading falls below the base value for that channel, the LM93
-will use the minimum PWM value. These values are found in the sysfs files
-temp<n>_auto_pwm_min. Note, there are only two minimums: one each for temp[12]
-and temp[34]. Therefore, any change to e.g. temp1_auto_pwm_min will also
-affect temp2_auto_pwm_min.
-
-PWM Spin-Up Cycle
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-A spin-up cycle occurs when a PWM output is commanded from 0% duty cycle to
-some value > 0%. The LM93 supports a minimum duty cycle during spin-up. These
-values are found in the sysfs files pwm<n>_auto_spinup_min. The value in this
-file has the same representation as other PWM duty cycle values. The
-duration of the spin-up cycle is also configurable. These values are found in
-the sysfs files pwm<n>_auto_spinup_time. The value in this file is
-the spin-up time in seconds. The available spin-up times are constrained by
-the hardware. Selecting a value which is not available will cause the driver
-to use the next largest value.
-
-Spin-up Durations:
- 0 (disabled, h/w default), 0.1, 0.25, 0.4, 0.7, 1.0, 2.0, 4.0
-
-#PROCHOT and #VRDHOT PWM Ramping
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-If the #PROCHOT or #VRDHOT signals are asserted while bound to a PWM output
-channel, the LM93 will ramp the PWM output up to 100% duty cycle in discrete
-steps. The duration of each step is configurable. There are two files, with
-one value each in seconds: pwm_auto_prochot_ramp and pwm_auto_vrdhot_ramp.
-The available ramp times are constrained by the hardware. Selecting a value
-which is not available will cause the driver to use the next largest value.
-
-Ramp Times:
- 0 (disabled, h/w default) to 0.75 in 0.05 second intervals
-
-Fan Boost
-^^^^^^^^^
-
-For each temperature channel, there is a boost temperature: if the channel
-exceeds this limit, the LM93 will immediately drive both PWM outputs to 100%.
-This limit is expressed in degrees C in the sysfs files temp<n>_auto_boost.
-There is also a hysteresis temperature for this function: after the boost
-limit is reached, the temperature channel must drop below this value before
-the boost function is disabled. This temperature is also expressed in degrees
-C in the sysfs files temp<n>_auto_boost_hyst.
-
-GPIO Pins
-^^^^^^^^^
-
-The LM93 can monitor the logic level of four dedicated GPIO pins as well as the
-four tach input pins. GPIO0-GPIO3 correspond to (fan) tach 1-4, respectively.
-All eight GPIOs are read by reading the bitmask in the sysfs file gpio. The
-LSB is GPIO0, and the MSB is GPIO7.
