pchtemp —
pchtemp driver provides the system the ability to
read the digital temperature sensor found on several Intel platform controller
hub (PCH) chipsets. The following chipsets are supported which cover most
Intel Core family (non-Atom) CPUs starting with the Haswell generation:
Temperature information is available to the system via the fault
management architecture (FMA). The file system location and programming
interface to the pchtemp driver are considered
Volatile, subject to change without notice, and should not
be used directly. Raw temperature information can be dumped through the FMA
developer utility fmtopo.
