Subject: [RFC PATCH] hwmon: Add fan monitoring support for HONOR FMI-XX
Date: Wed, 12 Aug 2026 22:22:42 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260812192242.859307-1-testname142@gmail.com> (raw)
The HONOR FMI-XX firmware exposes a serialized \\GFNS ACPI method.
It returns a status byte and a 16-bit fan speed in RPM for either of two
firmware channels.
Add a DMI-restricted, read-only hwmon driver using that firmware
interface. The driver deliberately exposes no fan control or direct
Embedded Controller access.
The interface was validated on firmware 1.09 with fan channel 0
reporting approximately 2500-2800 RPM. Channel 1 is readable and
remained at 0 RPM during idle and a short CPU load.

+Kernel driver honor-fmi
+=======================
+
+Supported systems:
+
+ * HONOR FMI-XX
+
+Author: Nikita Dubrovskih <testname142@gmail.com>
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+The driver provides read-only monitoring of the fan speed on the HONOR FMI-XX.
+The system firmware implements a ``GFNS`` ACPI method which returns the speed
+of one of two firmware fan channels in RPM. Embedded Controller access and
+serialization are handled by the firmware method.
+
+The driver does not expose fan control or direct Embedded Controller access.
+
+Sysfs entries
+-------------
+
+The following attributes are supported:
+
+======================= ======= =============================================
+Name Perm Description
+======================= ======= =============================================
+``fan1_input`` RO Fan channel 0 speed in RPM
+``fan2_input`` RO Fan channel 1 speed in RPM
