The script is meant to identify the driver and kernel module responsible for exporting a given hardware monitoring chip. Signed-off-by: Ondřej Lysoněk <olysonek@redhat.com>
This directory contains tools which may help with debugging lm_sensors. find-driver =========== If the 'sensors' program does not report useful values for certain hardware monitoring inputs, the problem in most cases is not in lm_sensors. lm_sensors only reads values exported by the Linux kernel. Finding the driver responsible for exporting the particular hardware monitoring chip may help to diagnose the problem further. It is possible that there is a bug in the driver, however it is even more likely that the input is simply not used on your board. Nonetheless, identifying the driver may help you identify the piece of hardware that reports the bogus value. This script finds the driver and kernel module responsible for exporting a hardware monitoring chip in sysfs. It should be given the chip name (as reported by the 'sensors' program) as argument. For example: $ sensors thinkpad-isa-0000 Adapter: ISA adapter fan1: 0 RPM $ ./find-driver thinkpad-isa-0000 Driver: thinkpad_hwmon Module: thinkpad_acpi
