15 | Description | ||
16 | ----------- | ||
17 | |||
18 | This driver implements support for the Fujitsu-Siemens Hermes chip. It is | ||
19 | described in the 'Register Set Specification BMC Hermes based Systemboard' | ||
20 | from Fujitsu-Siemens. | ||
21 | |||
22 | The Hermes chip implements a hardware-based system management, e.g. for | ||
23 | controlling fan speed and core voltage. There is also a watchdog counter on | ||
24 | the chip which can trigger an alarm and even shut the system down. | ||
25 | |||
26 | The chip provides three temperature values (CPU, motherboard and | ||
27 | auxiliary), three voltage values (+12V, +5V and battery) and three fans | ||
28 | (power supply, CPU and auxiliary). | ||
29 | |||
30 | Temperatures are measured in degrees Celsius. The resolution is 1 degree. | ||
31 | |||
32 | Fan rotation speeds are reported in RPM (rotations per minute). The value | ||
33 | can be divided by a programmable divider (1, 2 or 4) which is stored on | ||
34 | the chip. | ||
35 | |||
36 | Voltage sensors (also known as "in" sensors) report their values in volts. | ||
37 | |||
38 | All values are reported as final values from the driver. There is no need | ||
39 | for further calculations. | ||
40 | |||
41 | |||
42 | Detailed description | ||
43 | -------------------- | ||
44 | |||
45 | Below you'll find a single line description of all the bit values. With | ||
46 | this information, you're able to decode e. g. alarms, wdog, etc. To make | ||
47 | use of the watchdog, you'll need to set the watchdog time and enable the | ||
48 | watchdog. After that it is necessary to restart the watchdog time within | ||
49 | the specified period of time, or a system reset will occur. | ||

149 | Limitations | ||
150 | ----------- | ||
151 | |||
152 | * Measuring fan speed | ||
153 | It seems that the chip counts "ripples" (typical fans produce 2 ripples per | ||
154 | rotation while VERAX fans produce 18) in a 9-bit register. This register is | ||
155 | read out every second, then the ripple prescaler (2, 4 or 8) is applied and | ||
156 | the result is stored in the 8 bit output register. Due to the limitation of | ||
157 | the counting register to 9 bits, it is impossible to measure a VERAX fan | ||
158 | properly (even with a prescaler of 8). At its maximum speed of 3500 RPM the | ||
159 | fan produces 1080 ripples per second which causes the counting register to | ||
160 | overflow twice, leading to only 186 RPM. | ||
161 | |||
162 | * Measuring input voltages | ||
163 | in2 ("battery") reports the voltage of the onboard lithium battery and not | ||
164 | +3.3V from the power supply. | ||
165 | |||
166 | * Undocumented features | ||
167 | Fujitsu-Siemens Computers has not documented all features of the chip so | ||
168 | far. Their software, System Guard, shows that there are a still some | ||
169 | features which cannot be controlled by this implementation. | ||
