I am trying to load kernel driver it87 for my Gigabyte Z790 AERO G motherboard (it is not loaded automatically).
The Z790 AERO G has two chips, ITE IT8689E & ITE IT87952E.
Trying "modprobe it87 ignore_resource_conflict=1 force_id=0x8695,0x8689" loads, but I see in dmesg:
[ 1240.576414] it87: Found IT87952E chip at 0xa40, revision 2
[ 1240.576558] it87: Beeping is supported
[ 1240.576564] ACPI Warning: SystemIO range 0x0000000000000A45-0x0000000000000A46 conflicts with OpRegion 0x0000000000000A45-0x0000000000000A46 (\GSA1.SIO1) (20221020/utaddress-204)
[ 1240.576575] ACPI: OSL: Resource conflict; ACPI support missing from driver?
Only the second chip is detected (but then its not visible in lm_sensors).
The same happens if I change the ids of the two chips:
force_id=0x8689,0x8695
If I try "modprobe it87 ignore_resource_conflict=1 force_id=0x8689" I get the following error:
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'it87': No such device
I was looking at the source of it87 in kernel, and around line 3414, there are references to specific motherboards:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/tree/drivers/hwmon/it87.c?h=linux-6.3.y#n3414
Can the string "Z790 AERO G" be also added there?
dmidecode|grep -i z790
Product Name: Z790 AERO G
Family: Z790 MB
Product Name: Z790 AERO G
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.modprobe it87 ignore_resource_conflict=1 ignore_resource_conflict=1 force_id=0x8689,0x8695
Has to be run on Gigabyte Z790 AERO G boards
Actual Results:
Only one of the two io-sensors chips detected.
Expected Results:
Both io-sensors chips detected, and lm_sensors able to use them to report, voltages, fan speeds, etc.
