Legion S7-15ACH6 | Module fails to load on Nobara 37

cobaltbee opened this issue · comments

Hello, thanks for the great project, I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw the post on r/LenovoLegion, and I hope mods will sticky your thread soon for more visibilty.

I have a Legion S7-15ACH6 - Type 82K8 aka 2021 Slim 7 that unfortunately has problems loading the module. I have tried the 'forceloadmodule' option mentioned in another thread here, but no luck. Let me know if you need any further details from me, glad to provide whatever you need.

It failed because it expected the ID of the embedded controller to be 0x8227, but it read 0x5576. This model HACN BIOS firmware also does not seems to supported by the Windows tools LegionFanControl. It is one of the rare cases.

Maybe this model uses another chip. If you want to try to find the addresses in this chip, I could guide you through. It roughly works like that. Either, it can be easy, because you will find the embedded controller will use the same program/memory layout. Or, it is more complicated because it is completely different.

Disassembling ACPI tables

# Install requiered tools
sudo apt install acpica-tools
# Create folder for all the new files
mkdir acpi_re
cd acpi_re

# List ACPI tables and copy them
ls /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/
sudo cp --no-preserve=mode /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/*SDT* .

# Disassemble tables to output DSDT.dsl
iasl -e SSDT* -d DSDT

Then upload files.

Find Mapped Memory Address of Embedded Controller

Find the part for the embedded controller. It will contain something like this.

Device (EC0)
    Name (_HID, EisaId ("PNP0C09") /* Embedded Controller Device */)  // _HID: Hardware ID
    Name (_UID, One)  // _UID: Unique ID

Then find the regions used by the embedded controller. There are lots of other regions, but only
these are interesting that are within the scope/braces of the embedded controller.

You will find something similar to this:

OperationRegion (ERAM, EmbeddedControl, Zero, 0xFF)

OperationRegion (ECMS, SystemIO, 0x72, 0x02)

OperationRegion (ERAX, SystemMemory, 0xFE00D400, 0xFF)
- mapped into memory at 0xFE00D400
- region with most of the fields defined

OperationRegion (ECB2, SystemMemory, 0xFF00D520, 0xFF)
- mapped into memory at 0xFF00D520
- region with most of the fields defined

This will show that registers/memory of the embedded controller is mapped to (CPU)
memory address space. Note that these regions described in the ACPI tables above
are only the registers/memory used directly in ACPI.

Often, much more registers/memory of the embedded controller are mapped to (CPU).
Usually, these are before or after the regions mentioned in the ACPI tables.

Observing what Changes to Associate Memory Addresses With Functions

Now we can read the memory mapped regions. Then we change something, e.g.

  • increase fan speed by increasing CPU load
  • increase temperature by increasing CPU load
  • change power mode by pressing Fn + Q, which should also change fan curves in hardware

...

OK, thanks. Here you go, please see attached.

I see the first section you mention, but grep'ing for 'ERAM' and 'EmbeddedControl' shows nothing.

s7_15ach6_acpi_re.tar.gz

I had a lock at the files and found the string "embedded controller". It seems to be at the same memory address as others. I pushed a version (to main), that allows you just try it in readonly mode.

Try

# pull newest version
cd kernel_moodule
make
sudo make forcereloadmodulereadonly
cat /sys/kernel/debug/legion/fancurve

and check if this outputs a sensible fan curve. Otherwise, one would have to find different addresses in your different embedded controller.

Thanks a lot, I really appreciate it. The module now loads, although there are some errors...

It seems like your embedded controller uses different addresses or is a totally different chip. Try pulling, compiling, loading again (I fixed dumping the whole EC memory) and run

cat /sys/kernel/debug/legion/ecmemory | hexdump -C

before and after you change the power mode with Fn+Q. Try to find which values change and which could represent the fan curve.
