| |
| Superiotool is a user-space utility which can |
| |
| - detect which Super I/O chip is soldered onto your mainboard, |
| |
| - at which configuration port it's located (usually 0x2e or 0x4e), and |
| |
| - dump all register contents of the Super I/O chip, together with the |
| default values as per datasheet (to make comparing the values easy). |
| |
| It is mainly used for coreboot development purposes (see coreboot.org |
| for details on coreboot), but it may also be useful for other things. |
| |
| |
| Installation |
| ------------ |
| |
| $ svn co svn://coreboot.org/repos/trunk/util/superiotool |
| |
| $ cd superiotool |
| |
| $ make |
| |
| $ sudo make install |
| |
| |
| Usage |
| ----- |
| |
| Please read the superiotool(8) manpage or type 'superiotool --help'. |
| |
| Per default (no options) superiotool will just probe for a Super I/O |
| and print its vendor, name, ID, revision, and config port. |
| |
| Typical usage of superiotool: |
| |
| - Probe/detect the Super I/O in your mainboard: |
| |
| $ superiotool |
| |
| - Register dump as table of hex-values of the Super I/O (if detected): |
| |
| $ superiotool -d |
| |
| |
| Supported Super I/O Chips |
| ------------------------- |
| |
| Please see http://coreboot.org/Superiotool#Supported_devices, or type |
| |
| $ superiotool -l |
| |
| There's also a collection of sample register dumps from various Super I/O |
| chips on that web page. Please send further register dumps (either from a |
| proprietary BIOS and/or from coreboot) to the coreboot mailing list |
| (http://coreboot.org/Mailinglist). |
