If you can read the value from the CPU directly, that would be interesting, as this means that we can get the value even if the VID lines aren't (properly) wired to the hardware monitoring chip. So, yes, I'd say it's worth exporting from the coretemp driver if that can be done easily and reliably. Thanks, -- Jean Delvare
