Superiotool README

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
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 LinuxBIOS development purposes (see linuxbios.org
|
|
for details on LinuxBIOS), but it may also be useful for other things.

$ superiotool [-d] [-V] [-v] [-h]
|
|
|

-V | --verbose Verbose mode
|
|
-v | --version Show the superiotool version
|
|
-h | --help Show a short help text
|
|
|
|
Per default (no options) superiotool will just probe for a Super I/O
|
|
and print its vendor, name, ID, version, and config port.
|
|
|
|
Typical usage of superiotool:
|
|
|
|
- Probe/detect the Super I/O in your mainboard:
|
|
|
|
$ superiotool
|
|
|
|
- Detailed register dump of the Super I/O (if detected):
|
|
|
|
$ superiotool -d
|
|
|
|
|
|
