14*4882a593Smuzhiyun-----------
15*4882a593Smuzhiyun
16*4882a593SmuzhiyunThis is the driver for the SMB Host controller on Acer Labs Inc. (ALI)
17*4882a593SmuzhiyunM1563 South Bridge.

20*4882a593Smuzhiyun
21*4882a593SmuzhiyunThe M1563 southbridge is deceptively similar to the M1533, with a few
22*4882a593Smuzhiyunnotable exceptions. One of those happens to be the fact they upgraded the
23*4882a593Smuzhiyuni2c core to be SMBus 2.0 compliant, and happens to be almost identical to
24*4882a593Smuzhiyunthe i2c controller found in the Intel 801 south bridges.

28*4882a593Smuzhiyun
29*4882a593SmuzhiyunThis driver controls the SMB Host only. This driver does not use
30*4882a593Smuzhiyuninterrupts.
