SuperIO

This plugin enumerates the various ITE85* SuperIO embedded controller ICs found in many laptops. Vendors wanting to expose the SuperIO functionality will need to add a HwId quirk entry to superio.quirk.

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_I/O for more details about SuperIO and what the EC actually does.

Eventually we could support flashing the EC using this plugin, but not until we have a way to recover a failed flash. The pragmatic decision is probably to use the vendor-suplied UEFI capsule binary, as the ITE85* datasheets are seemingly not available without signing an NDA with ITE.

GUID Generation

These devices use a custom GUID generated using the SuperIO chipset name:

  • SuperIO-$(chipset), for example SuperIO-IT8512
