SUPPORTED	PCI ID
5595	0008

Note: these chips contain a 0008 device which is incompatible with the

5595. We recognize these by the presence of the listed “blacklist” PCI ID and refuse to load.

Module Parameters

force_addr=0xaddr

Set the I/O base address. Useful for boards that don’t set the address in the BIOS. Does not do a PCI force; the device must still be present in lspci. Don’t use this unless the driver complains that the base address is not set.

Description

i2c-sis5595 is a true SMBus host driver for motherboards with the SiS5595 southbridges.

WARNING: If you are trying to access the integrated sensors on the SiS5595 chip, you want the sis5595 driver for those, not this driver. This driver is a BUS driver, not a CHIP driver. A BUS driver is used by other CHIP drivers to access chips on the bus.
