It is possible to enable all beeping globally, or only -the beeping for some alarms. - -The driver only reads the chip values each 3 seconds; reading them more -often will do no harm, but will return 'old' values. +The w83791d has a global bit used to enable beeping from the speaker when an +alarm is triggered as well as a bitmask to enable or disable the beep for +specific alarms. You need both the global beep enable bit and the +corresponding beep bit to be on for a triggered alarm to sound a beep. + +The sysfs interface to the gloabal enable is via the sysfs beep_enable file. +This file is used for both legacy and new code. + +The sysfs interface to the beep bitmask has migrated from the original legacy +method of a single sysfs beep_mask file to a newer method using multiple +*_beep files as described in .../Documentation/hwmon/sysfs-interface. + +A similar change has occured for the bitmap corresponding to the alarms. The +original legacy method used a single sysfs alarms file containing a bitmap +of triggered alarms. The newer method uses multiple sysfs *_alarm files +(again following the pattern described in sysfs-interface). + +Since both methods read and write the underlying hardware, they can be used +interchangeably and changes in one will automatically be reflected by +the other. If you use the legacy bitmask method, your user-space code is +responsible for handling the fact that the alarms and beep_mask bitmaps +are not the same (see the table below). + +NOTE: All new code should be written to use the newer sysfs-interface +specification as that avoids bitmap problems and is the preferred interface +going forward. + +The driver reads the hardware chip values at most once every three seconds. +User mode code requesting values more often will receive cached values. + +Alarms bitmap vs. beep_mask bitmask +------------------------------------ +For legacy code using the alarms and beep_mask files: + +in0 (VCORE) : alarms: 0x000001 beep_mask: 0x000001 +in1 (VINR0) : alarms: 0x000002 beep_mask: 0x002000 <== mismatch +in2 (+3.3VIN): alarms: 0x000004 beep_mask: 0x000004 +in3 (5VDD) : alarms: 0x000008 beep_mask: 0x000008 +in4 (+12VIN) : alarms: 0x000100 beep_mask: 0x000100 +in5 (-12VIN) : alarms: 0x000200 beep_mask: 0x000200 +in6 (-5VIN) : alarms: 0x000400 beep_mask: 0x000400 +in7 (VSB) : alarms: 0x080000 beep_mask: 0x010000 <== mismatch +in8 (VBAT) : alarms: 0x100000 beep_mask: 0x020000 <== mismatch +in9 (VINR1) : alarms: 0x004000 beep_mask: 0x004000 +temp1 : alarms: 0x000010 beep_mask: 0x000010 +temp2 : alarms: 0x000020 beep_mask: 0x000020 +temp3 : alarms: 0x002000 beep_mask: 0x000002 <== mismatch +fan1 : alarms: 0x000040 beep_mask: 0x000040 +fan2 : alarms: 0x000080 beep_mask: 0x000080 +fan3 : alarms: 0x000800 beep_mask: 0x000800 +fan4 : alarms: 0x200000 beep_mask: 0x200000 +fan5 : alarms: 0x400000 beep_mask: 0x400000 +tart1 : alarms: 0x010000 beep_mask: 0x040000 <== mismatch +tart2 : alarms: 0x020000 beep_mask: 0x080000 <== mismatch +tart3 : alarms: 0x040000 beep_mask: 0x100000 <== mismatch +case_open : alarms: 0x001000 beep_mask: 0x001000 +global_enable: alarms: -------- beep_mask: 0x800000 (modified via beep_enable) W83791D TODO: --------------- -Provide a patch for per-file alarms and beep enables as defined in the hwmon - documentation (Documentation/hwmon/sysfs-interface) Provide a patch for smart-fan control (still need appropriate motherboard/fans) |
