[ Upstream commit f27237c174 ]
The AMD X370 and other AM4 chipsets (A/B/X 3/4/5 parts) and Threadripper
equivalents have a secondary SMBus controller at I/O port address
0x0B20. This bus is used by several manufacturers to control
motherboard RGB lighting via embedded controllers. I have been using
this bus in my OpenRGB project to control the Aura RGB on many
motherboards and ASRock also uses this bus for their Polychrome RGB
controller.
I am not aware of any CZ-compatible platforms which do not have the
second SMBus channel. All of AMD's AM4- and Threadripper- series
chipsets that OpenRGB users have tested appear to have this secondary
bus. I also noticed this secondary bus is present on older AMD
platforms including my FM1 home server.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
