Below you will find an updated version from the original series bunching all patches into one big patch updating broken web addresses that are located in Documentation/* Some of the addresses date as far far back as 1995 etc... so searching became a bit difficult, the best way to deal with these is to use web.archive.org to locate these addresses that are outdated. Now there are also some addresses pointing to .spec files some are located, but some(after searching on the companies site)where still no where to be found. In this case I just changed the address to the company site this way the users can contact the company and they can locate them for the users. Signed-off-by: Justin P.

Description
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
This is the driver for the SMB Host controller on Acer Labs Inc. (ALI)
|
|
M1535 South Bridge.
|
|
|
|
The M1535 is a South bridge for portable systems. It is very similar to the
|
|
M15x3 South bridges also produced by Acer Labs Inc. Some of the registers
|
|
within the part have moved and some have been redefined slightly.
|
|
Additionally, the sequencing of the SMBus transactions has been modified to
|
|
be more consistent with the sequencing recommended by the manufacturer and
|
|
observed through testing. These changes are reflected in this driver and
|
|
can be identified by comparing this driver to the i2c-ali15x3 driver. For
|
|
an overview of these chips see http://www.acerlabs.com
|
|
|
|
The SMB controller is part of the M7101 device, which is an ACPI-compliant
|
|
Power Management Unit (PMU).
|
|
|
|
The whole M7101 device has to be enabled for the SMB to work. You can't
|
|
just enable the SMB alone. The SMB and the ACPI have separate I/O spaces.
|
|
We make sure that the SMB is enabled. We leave the ACPI alone.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Features
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
This driver controls the SMB Host only. This driver does not use
|
|
interrupts.
