The K8 only had a single north bridge PCI device, but it could report several temperatures per CPU. This is no longer true with the family 10h and later. As far as accuracy goes, the issue is explained at length in Documentation/hwmon/k10temp. > I guess the chip only reports the package temperature, not the per-core temperature. I think you're right. Which is not bad per se... better one good temperature value than two good and two bogus as k8temp often does. > Having said that ... the driver officially only supports up to family 15h as far > as I can see. Did you patch it, or does it just work ? The driver supports PCI devices (north bridge) not CPU families. Just as family 12h and 14h north bridges have the same PCI device ID, I can only guess that family 15h and 16h north bridges have the same PCI device ID. If this is confirmed, we can update the driver documentation accordingly. Andre, Clemens, any comment on this? -- Jean Delvare _______________________________________________ lm-sensors mailing list lm-sensors@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.lm-sensors.org/mailman/listinfo/lm-sensors
