Date: Sat, 10 Mar 2007 07:16:03 -0500 (EST) From: Justin Piszcz <jpiszcz@...idpixels.com> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org cc: debian-user@...ts.debian.org, bytes@...uxgazette.net Subject: Intel Core Duo/Solo Temperature Monitoring Working On Intel DG965 Motherboard DISCLAIMER: This patch is still experimental. AUTHOR: Rudolf Marek has written the coretemp module for Intel Core Duo/Solo processors. Without this patch, you cannot monitor your CPU temperature, at least not on a DG965 motherboard. From the readme (second patch): +Kernel driver coretemp +====================== + +Supported chips: + * All Intel Core family + Prefix: 'coretemp' + Addresses scanned: CPUID (family 0x6, models 0xe, 0xf) + Datasheet: Intel 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer's Manual + Volume 3A: System Programming Guide + +Author: Rudolf Marek +Contact: Rudolf Marek <edited_out> +Description +----------- + +This driver permits reading temperature sensor embedded inside Intel Core CPU. +Temperature is measured in degrees Celsius and measurement resolution is +1 degree C. Valid temperatures are from 0 to TjMax degrees C, because +the actual temperature is in fact a delta from TjMax. + +Temperature known as TjMax is the maximum junction temperature of processor. +Intel defines this temperature as 85C or 100C. At this temperature, protection +mechanism will perform actions to forcibly cool down the processor. Alarm +may be raised, if the temperature grows enough (more than TjMax) to trigger +the Out-Of-Spec bit. Following table summarizes the exported sysfs files: + +temp1_input - Core temperature (in milidegrees of Celsius). +temp1_crit - Maximum junction temperature (in milidegrees of Celsius). +temp1_crit_alarm - Set when Out-of-spec bit is set, never clears. + Correct CPU operation is no longer guaranteed. +temp1_label - Contains string with the "Core X", where X is processor + number. + +The TjMax temperature is set to 85C if undocumented model specific register +(UMSR) 0xee has bit 30 set. If not the TjMax is 100C as documented in processor +datasheet. Intel will not disclose this information to individuals. How to get it working: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Per: http://www.lm-sensors.org/wiki/Devices Scroll down to: Intel Core/Core2 yes coretemp Integrated sensor in CPU, patch is here.

You will need to remove or overwrite your old libsensors3 if you have it installed. 2. You need to make sure you have libsysfs-dev and flex installed to compile the latest lm_sensors.
