|
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
isadump is a small helper program to examine registers visible through the ISA
|
|
bus. It is intended to probe any chip that lives on the ISA bus working with an
|
|
address register and a data register (I\u2\dC-like access) or a flat 256 bytes
|
|
range.
|
|
|
|
.SH OPTIONS (I\u2\dC-like access mode)
|
|
At least two options must be provided to isadump. \fIaddrreg\fR contains the
|
|
ISA address of the address register for the chip to probe; \fIdatareg\fR
|
|
contains the address of the data register. Both addresses are integers between
|
|
0x0000 and 0x3FFF. Usually, if the chip's base address is 0x0nn0, the
|
|
address register is at 0x0nn5 and the data register is at 0x0nn6. The most
|
|
common base address for hardware monitoring chips is 0x0290.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The \fIbank\fR and \fIbankreg\fR parameters are useful on the W83781D and
|
|
similar chips (at the time of writing, all Winbond and Asus chips).
|
|
\fIbank\fR is an integer between 0 and 7, and \fIbankreg\fR is an integer
|
|
between 0x00 and 0xFF (default value: 0x4E). The W83781D data sheet has more
|
|
information on bank selection.
|
|
|
|
.SH OPTIONS (flat address space mode)
|
|
In flat mode (triggered by the \fB-f\fR flag), only one parameter must be
|
|
provided. \fIaddress\fR contains the ISA address of the address register
|
|
for the chip to probe; it is an integer between 0x0000 and 0xFFFF.
|
|
|
|
.SH WARNING
|
|
Poking around in ISA data space is extremely dangerous.
|
|
Running isadump with random parameters can cause system
|
|
crashes, data loss, and worse! Be extremely careful when using
|
|
this program.
