+Kernel driver emc2103
+======================

+
+Description
+-----------
+
+The Standard Microsystems Corporation (SMSC) EMC2103 chips
+contain up to 4 temperature sensors and a single fan controller.
+
+Fan rotation speeds are reported in RPM (rotations per minute). An alarm is
+triggered if the rotation speed has dropped below a programmable limit. Fan
+readings can be divided by a programmable divider (1, 2, 4 or 8) to give
+the readings more range or accuracy. Not all RPM values can accurately be
+represented, so some rounding is done. With a divider of 1, the lowest
+representable value is 480 RPM.
+
+This driver supports RPM based control, to use this a fan target
+should be written to fan1_target and pwm1_enable should be set to 3.
+
+The 2103-2 and 2103-4 variants have a third temperature sensor, which can
+be connected to two anti-parallel diodes. These values can be read
+as temp3 and temp4. If only one diode is attached to this channel, temp4
+will show as "fault". The module parameter "apd=0" can be used to suppress
+this 4th channel when anti-parallel diodes are not fitted.

+Note 1
+------
+
+If you have NOT configured the driver to sample all GPIO pins as analog
+voltages, then the in10_input and in11_input sysfs attributes will not be
+created. The driver will sample the GPIO pin that is currently connected to the
+ADC as an analog voltage, and report the value in in9_input.
+
+If you have configured the driver to sample all GPIO pins as analog voltages,
+then they will be sampled in round-robin fashion. If userspace reads too
+slowly, -EAGAIN will be returned when you read the sysfs attribute containing
+the sensor reading.
+
+The LTC4245 chip can be configured to sample all GPIO pins with two methods:
+1) platform data -- see include/linux/i2c/ltc4245.h
+2) OF device tree -- add the "ltc4245,use-extra-gpios" property to each chip
+
+The default mode of operation is to sample a single GPIO pin.

An alarm is triggered if the rotation speed drops below a programmable
limit. Another alarm is triggered if the speed is too low to be measured
(including stalled or missing fan).
+
+
+Fan Speed Control
+-----------------
+
+Fan speed can be controlled by PWM outputs. There are 4 possible modes:
+always off, always on, manual and automatic. The latter isn't supported
+by the driver: you can only return to that mode if it was the original
+setting, and the configuration interface is missing.
+
+
+Temperature Monitoring
+----------------------
+
+The PC87427 relies on external sensors (following the SensorPath
+standard), so the resolution and range depend on the type of sensor
+connected. The integer part can be 8-bit or 9-bit, and can be signed or
+not. I couldn't find a way to figure out the external sensor data
+temperature format, so user-space adjustment (typically by a factor 2)
+may be required.

+ SCSI Kernel Parameters
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+See Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt for general information on
+specifying module parameters.
+
+This document may not be entirely up to date and comprehensive. The command
+"modinfo -p ${modulename}" shows a current list of all parameters of a loadable
+module. Loadable modules, after being loaded into the running kernel, also
+reveal their parameters in /sys/module/${modulename}/parameters/. Some of these
+parameters may be changed at runtime by the command
+"echo -n ${value} > /sys/module/${modulename}/parameters/${parm}".
