This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled hwmon: (drivetemp) Use drivetemp's true module name in Kconfig section to the 5.6-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: hwmon-drivetemp-use-drivetemp-s-true-module-name-in-.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.6 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit c44700990c5f3118fd6b162aadeaec81f9dcbd80 Author: Ann T Ropea <bedhanger@xxxxxx> Date: Tue Apr 7 01:55:21 2020 +0200 hwmon: (drivetemp) Use drivetemp's true module name in Kconfig section commit 6bdf8f3efe867c5893e27431a555e41f54ed7f9a upstream. The addition of the support for reading the temperature of ATA drives as per commit 5b46903d8bf3 ("hwmon: Driver for disk and solid state drives with temperature sensors") lists in the respective Kconfig section the name of the module to be optionally built as "satatemp". However, building the kernel modules with "CONFIG_SENSORS_DRIVETEMP=m", does not generate a file named "satatemp.ko". Instead, the rest of the original commit uses the term "drivetemp" and a file named "drivetemp.ko" ends up in the kernel's modules directory. This file has the right ingredients: $ strings /path/to/drivetemp.ko | grep ^description description=Hard drive temperature monitor and modprobing it produces the expected result: # drivetemp is not loaded $ sensors -u drivetemp-scsi-4-0 Specified sensor(s) not found! $ sudo modprobe drivetemp $ sensors -u drivetemp-scsi-4-0 drivetemp-scsi-4-0 Adapter: SCSI adapter temp1: temp1_input: 35.000 temp1_max: 60.000 temp1_min: 0.000 temp1_crit: 70.000 temp1_lcrit: -40.000 temp1_lowest: 20.000 temp1_highest: 36.000 Fix Kconfig by referring to the true name of the module.
