+
+Module Parameters
+-----------------
+
+* force_addr: int
+  Initialize the base address of the i2c controller
+
+
+Notes
+-----
+
+The force_addr parameter is 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.
+
+Example: 'modprobe i2c-ali15x3 force_addr=0xe800'
+
+SMBus periodically hangs on ASUS P5A motherboards and can only be cleared
+by a power cycle. Cause unknown (see Issues below).
+
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+This is the driver for the SMB Host controller on Acer Labs Inc. (ALI)
+M1541 and M1543C South Bridges.
+
+The M1543C is a South bridge for desktop systems.
+The M1541 is a South bridge for portable systems.
+They are part of the following ALI chipsets:
+
+ * "Aladdin Pro 2" Includes the M1621 Slot 1 North bridge with AGP and
+ 		100MHz CPU Front Side bus
+ * "Aladdin V" Includes the M1541 Socket 7 North bridge with AGP and 100MHz
+ 		CPU Front Side bus
+   Some Aladdin V motherboards:
+	Asus P5A
+	Atrend ATC-5220
+	BCM/GVC VP1541
+	Biostar M5ALA
+	Gigabyte GA-5AX (** Generally doesn't work because the BIOS doesn't
+                            enable the 7101 device! **)
+	Iwill XA100 Plus
+	Micronics C200
+	Microstar (MSI) MS-5169
+
+  * "Aladdin IV" Includes the M1541 Socket 7 North bridge
+   		with host bus up to 83.3 MHz.
+
+For an overview of these chips see http://www.acerlabs.com At this time the
+full data sheets on the web site are password protected, however if you
+contact the ALI office in San Jose they may give you the password.
+
+The M1533/M1543C devices appear as FOUR separate devices on the PCI bus. An
+output of lspci will show something similar to the following:
+
+  00:02.0 USB Controller: Acer Laboratories Inc. M5237 (rev 03)
+  00:03.0 Bridge: Acer Laboratories Inc. M7101      <= THIS IS THE ONE WE NEED
+  00:07.0 ISA bridge: Acer Laboratories Inc. M1533 (rev c3)
+  00:0f.0 IDE interface: Acer Laboratories Inc. M5229 (rev c1)
+
+** IMPORTANT **
+** If you have a M1533 or M1543C on the board and you get
+** "ali15x3.o: Error: Can't detect ali15x3!"
+** then run lspci.
+** If you see the 1533 and 5229 devices but NOT the 7101 device,
+** then you must enable ACPI, the PMU, SMB, or something similar
+** in the BIOS.
+** The driver won't work if it can't find the M7101 device.
+
+The SMB controller is part of the M7101 device, which is an ACPI-compliant
+Power Management Unit (PMU).
+
+The whole M7101 device has to be enabled for the SMB to work. You can't
+just enable the SMB alone. The SMB and the ACPI have separate I/O spaces.
+We make sure that the SMB is enabled. We leave the ACPI alone.
+
+Features
+--------
+
+This driver controls the SMB Host only. The SMB Slave
+controller on the M15X3 is not enabled. This driver does not use
+interrupts.
+
+
+Issues
+------
+
+This driver requests the I/O space for only the SMB
+registers. It doesn't use the ACPI region.
+
+On the ASUS P5A motherboard, there are several reports that
+the SMBus will hang and this can only be resolved by
+powering off the computer. It appears to be worse when the board
+gets hot, for example under heavy CPU load, or in the summer.
+There may be electrical problems on this board.
+On the P5A, the W83781D sensor chip is on both the ISA and
+SMBus. Therefore the SMBus hangs can generally be avoided
+by accessing the W83781D on the ISA bus only.

+Description
+-----------
+
+This is the driver for the SMB Host controller on Acer Labs Inc. (ALI)
+M1563 South Bridge.
+
+For an overview of these chips see http://www.acerlabs.com
+
+The M1563 southbridge is deceptively similar to the M1533, with a  few
+notable exceptions. One of those happens to be the fact they  upgraded the
+i2c core to be SMBus 2.0 compliant, and happens to be almost  identical to
+the i2c controller found in the Intel 801 south bridges.
+
+Features
+--------
+
+This driver controls the SMB Host only. This driver does not use
+interrupts.

+i2c-amd8111 driver.

+i2c-via is an i2c bus driver for motherboards with VIA chipset.
+
+The following VIA pci chipsets are supported:

+    Problems?
+
+ Q: You have VT82C586B on the motherboard, but not in the listing.

+ A: Go to your BIOS setup, section PCI devices or similar.
+    Turn USB support on, and try again.
+
+ Q: No error messages, but still i2c doesn't seem to work.
+
+ A: This can happen. This driver uses the pins VIA recommends in their
