Hi Igor,
Quite possible that you have an EMC2104 in your system.
However, that is an I2C chip, which you would not see with
isadump. The above seems to be an IT8519E, which is an
embedded controller from ITE.
Unfortunately, we neither support the IT8519E nor the EMC2104
at this time. It should be possible to add support for EMC2104
to the EMC2103 driver, but someone would have to implement it.
If you want to hack, you could add the emc2104 device id (0x1d)
and the emmc2104 I2C address (0x2f) to the driver. That _should_
give you access to some of the temperature sensors and to one
of the fan controllers. No guarantee, though.
Adding support for the ITE chip is all but impossible; the datasheet
is not available in public. Assuming it does provide any environmental
monitor functionality, your best chance would be an ACPI driver.
You could try loading the thinkpad_acpi driver to see if it works.

For that kind of test, you don't even need to change the code. You can
simply instantiate the device from user-space manually using method 4
described in
http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/Documentation/i2c/instantiating-devices
Whether it will work or cause your hardware to crash and burn, I can't
say. I would be very cautious with a fan controller chip.
Igor, could you please provide a register dump (using the i2c-dev
driver + i2cdump from the i2c-tools package) of your EMC2104 chip?

Hi,
I added new adresses to emc2103 driver with no effect. I checked if
the module works with trying to load i2c-stub module with 0x2e &
other addresses - it triggers the device detection in the module.= but
of course without success as it is a dummy i2c device.
After that I think I'm beginning to understand how it all works so I
ran i2cdetect
# i2cdetect -l
i2c-0 i2c i915 gmbus ssc I2C adapter
i2c-1 i2c i915 gmbus vga I2C adapter
i2c-2 i2c i915 gmbus panel I2C adapter
i2c-3 i2c i915 gmbus dpc I2C adapter
i2c-4 i2c i915 gmbus dpb I2C adapter
i2c-5 i2c i915 gmbus dpd I2C adapter
i2c-6 i2c DPDDC-D I2C adapter
i2c-7 smbus SMBus stub driver SMBus adapter (dummy
driver I played with)
Should I see emc adapter there or not? I think I should.
From what I understand to instantiate a device from user space proper
entry in /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-... has to exist.
Is it possible that EMC2104 in my laptop is somehow invisible to
OS/i2c bus? I'm sure it is there - I can send You a picture ;-)

No, the EMC2104 chip is an I2C/SMBus client, not an I2C/SMBus master, so
it's expected you don't see it in the list above. The EMC2104 chip is
connected to one of the adapters. What is surprising is that I'd expect
your motherboard's SMBus to show up in the adapter list but it's not
there. Please check in lspci if you can see it. Then tell us which
kernel you're running.

Yes, you need the /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-<N> which corresponds to
your SMBus.
> Is it possible that EMC2104 in my laptop is somehow invisible to

Yes, we've seen it before. The SMBus controller can be hidden, or made
inaccessible to the OS due to ACPI resource conflicts, or the EMC2104
could be behind and I2C switch/gate, or it could be connected using an
arbitrary pair of GPIO pins and we'll never guess what they are...

After some googling& investigation in documentation of i2c-i801 driver
I found out that it should work for that chipset but in some cases can
be conflicted with ACPI (as You wrote above), and in my case it is
(messages after loading i2c-i801 driver):
ACPI Warning: 0x0000000000002040-0x000000000000205f SystemIO conflicts
with Region \_SB_.PCI0.SBUS.SMBI 1 (20130517/utaddress-251)
ACPI: If an ACPI driver is available for this device, you should use
it instead of the native driver
So I guess nothing can be done?
Thanks,
Igor

EMC2103 driver does not load (wrong manufacturer ID) - emc2103 device
should appear at 0x2e - manual activation does not work either.

As Jean mentioned, there may be another i2c bus, a hidden i2c multiplexer,
or the chip may be connected to the IDT EC. The DSDT might give us
some hints. You already know from the ACPI overlap that ACPI talks with the
SMBus adapter; it might also talk with the EC. Can you extract the DSDT
and provide it to us ?
sudo cat /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/DSDT > dsdt.aml
Then, in case you want to learn things you never really wanted to know:
iasl -d dsdt.aml
Thanks,
Guenter

I see the following:
Scope (\_SB.PCI0.LPCB)
{
Device (H_EC)
{
Name (_HID, EisaId ("PNP0C09")) // _HID: Hardware ID
Name (_UID, One) // _UID: Unique ID
(...)
OperationRegion (ECF2, EmbeddedControl, Zero, 0xFF)
Field (ECF2, ByteAcc, Lock, Preserve)
{
(...)
Offset (0xEE),
BHFW, 16,
F1PW, 8,
F2PW, 8,
F1RM, 8,
F2RM, 8,
FAMO, 8,
F1SP, 16,
F2SP, 16,
FAN1, 8,
FAN2, 8,
BCG1, 16,
BCG2, 16
This seems to imply there is an EC which knows something about fans.
However there is no reference to these fields in the rest of the DSDT.
There could be references in other ACPI tables though. Also note that
PNP0C09 is referenced in driver thinkpad_acpi so maybe that driver can
help. That being said, it seems that newer laptop models from Lenovo
aren't supported by this driver as good as older models were.
Also interesting is the SBUS device which defines a complete ACPI
interface to the SMBus controller. Unfortunately it doesn't follow the
SMBus CMI standard. Writing an ACPI driver for it would allow working
around the i2c-i801 resource conflict. However this doesn't seem
terribly useful as there's only the memory module SPD EEPROM visible on
the SMBus.
If it was me, I think I'd just leave the whole thing alone unless you
have a real problem that needs to be solved.

Given the "flexibility" in ACPI permitting vendors to change bindings
and underlying functionality at their leisure, that is hardly surprising.
Looking through the driver, there is lots of magic in there anyway.
I think the best shot would be to load the driver and hope that it works.
However, the following note on thinkwiki.org, related to Lenovo 3000, suggests
that it may not work: "The ACPI and EC firmware are completely incompatible
with ThinkPads, and thinkpad-acpi will not support it. The Lenovo 3000 are not
ThinkPads". Since the Yoga isn't even a laptop, that doesn't sound very
encouraging.

Also, the interface may change with the next laptop model, so a driver
would only have limited value.

My life does not depend on that :-)
