ALI 1563 (south bridge) + + Datasheet: Now under NDA + http://www.ali.com.tw/ + +Author: Patrick Mochel <mochel@digitalimplant.org> + +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. |
