It's just how the driver exposes the temperature sensor. They both probably expose multiple sensors so the order can differ, my guess is that temp1 with zenpower is the Tdie we discussed earlier in this thread. However, it seems like a good use-case for the autodetection since it selects the right sensor regardless which driver is loaded.

You could take a look in the /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon4/ directory manually and see what's there.

You're correct.

I think I know what they did. They swapped it in zenpower. Maybe it can be fixed, but I've long forgotten C and the project is kind of dead. The github user who modified the previous version to support current generation is no longer active. Still works though.

Code:

# ls /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon4/
device  name  power  subsystem  temp1_input  temp1_label  uevent
# cat /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon4/temp1_label
Tctl
# rmmod k10temp
# modprobe zenpower
# ls /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon4/
curr1_input  curr2_input  debug_data  in1_input  in2_input  name   power1_input  power2_input  subsystem    temp1_label  temp2_input  uevent
curr1_label  curr2_label  device      in1_label  in2_label  power  power1_label  power2_label  temp1_input  temp1_max    temp2_label
# cat /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon4/temp1_label
Tdie
# cat /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon4/temp2_label
Tctl

Is everything still working well with the new version?

I haven't used it since but I don't remember something that didn't work :)

If there's something I'll report here. Thanks for your effort!

Thanks for the feedback.

I'd like to write a proper manpage for my program, are there any tools/editors to assist with that available in ::gentoo?

The only thing I see and I forgot to mention is schedutil doesn't seem to respect the maximum frequency.

I personally never used schedutil, so i don't have any hands-on experience with it.

Looking at the documentation and kernel/sched/cpufreq_schedutil.c in the kernel sources it indeed seems to use the CPU's maximum capability, not the value set as maximum in the cpufreq policy.

I'm trying t figure out what i should do for multi-processor support for systems with multiple physical CPU's, not only cores within a single CPU. Right now my program reads one temperate and sets all processors maximum clock, which quite likely is not what's needed in such a scenario.

On the CPU side things seem quite straightforward, /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/physical_package_id shows me the physical socket the CPU belongs to.

On the temperature side there is a difference between intel and AMD, where intel (with the coretemp module) simply exports sensors called "Package id 0" and "Package id 1" for the different sockets. For AMD (with the k10temp module) i don't see multi CPU support :(. Does anyone have a multi-CPU AMD system to see what the sensors look like?

This also got me to read the documentation on k10temp (Documentation/hwmon/k10temp.rst in the kernel sources), which states this about Tctl:
Code:
  Tctl is the processor temperature control value, used by the platform to
  control cooling systems. Tctl is a non-physical temperature on an
  arbitrary scale measured in degrees. It does _not_ represent an actual
  physical temperature like die or case temperature. Instead, it specifies
  the processor temperature relative to the point at which the system must
  supply the maximum cooling for the processor's specified maximum case
  temperature and maximum thermal power dissipation.

So the Tctl might not be the correct sensor to use.

I think you should start a new thread asking for someone with dual CPU AMD setup willing to test. The chance someone with with such comes here is minimal.

Hm. The pch must be Platform Controller Hub.
But it certainly shouldn't be that hot when idle and using powersave governor. So yeah. Can't trust it for accurate data for these kinds of programs. Luckily that box has more sensors to choose from. ;)

I think you could spin up a small VM with dual CPU hw and see how things work, or don't work, in there.

That's a nice idea.

My impression is that the virtual CPU's are always the same as the host CPU's (apart from full emulation where you emulate a completely different architecture). So that would mean i can only emulate intel on my machine, or am i missing something?

Code:
$ sensors
No sensors found!


Sensors-detect found nothing. It's an EndeavorOS installation image, I don't know if it has all drivers, but I don't think this will work. You need real hardware.

EDIT: With k10temp explicitly loaded it still didn't find anything.

I also just tested with qemu and succesfully started an AMD Epyc VM. Since it was emulated it was very ssssllllloooowwww, but it worked :).

I first booted the minimal installation CD but that didn't include hwmon modules. Then i tried the LiveCD, but KDE kept crashing before i could open a terminal to have a look.

My impression is that you can virtualize a different cpu as long as the virtualized CPU doesn't have any CPU instructions that aren't found from the host CPU.
try this:
qemu-system-x86_64 -cpu help
... should list all the available CPUs... You could use
Code:
-accel kvm -cpu host
so that you get virtualization acceleration... Also investigate -smp and -numa options.
My experience stop there.

Thanks for the tips Zucca.

In my experiments (my post before yours) i used exactly that. Exception is that i didn't use KVM because my host CPU is very simple and any AMD CPU usable in multi-socket configuration exceeds what my CPU can do.

Today my computer started stuttering and I noticed the following:

Code:
^C2024-08-15 10:05:58: Received signal 2, exiting.
2024-08-15 10:05:58: Set scaling frequency to CPU's minimum frequency


Why'd you do that? Then I have to manually adjust the scaling frequency.

p.s. that was with schedutil, so it seems it respects at least scaling frequency.

Georgi

I'll install 0.5 and start experimenting with it.

Today my computer started stuttering and I noticed the following:

Code:
^C2024-08-15 10:05:58: Received signal 2, exiting.
2024-08-15 10:05:58: Set scaling frequency to CPU's minimum frequency


Why'd you do that? Then I have to manually adjust the scaling frequency.

My personal goal with this program was my passively cooled desktop, which means that it can overheat when the daemon is not running. As a safety measure it sets the CPU frequency to it's minimum when it exits (either a normal exit or due to an error). I could make that behavior optional if that makes more sense.

Thanks for updating you overlay Zucca.

I vote for:
Change governor to powersave and adjust frequency to minimum, unless configured otherwise.

Anyways... What frequency governor you guys use with this daemon?

I'm always using the Conservative governor, which is also the default for my program.
They seem to play nice together: When the CPU is loaded the governor raises the frequency, when the CPU gets too hot my program lowers it. When the CPU load goes down, so does the frequency and the temperature, so my program allows the CPU to go to it's maximum if needed.
