19.Os
20.Sh NAME
21.Nm km
22.Nd AMD K10 temperature sensor
23.Sh SYNOPSIS
24To compile this driver into the kernel,
25place the following lines in your
26kernel configuration file:
27.Bd -ragged -offset indent
28.Cd "device pci"
29.Cd "device km"
30.Ed
31.Pp
32Alternatively, to load the driver as a
33module at boot time, place the following line in
34.Xr loader.conf 5 :
35.Bd -literal -offset indent
36km_load="YES"
37.Ed
38.Sh DESCRIPTION
39The
40.Nm
41driver provides support for the temperature sensors available in the
42AMD Family 10h and 11h processors.
43.Pp
44Each chip reports one temperature sensor.
45Multiprocessor systems have one instance of
46.Nm
47per chip.
48The highest resolution supported by the driver is 0.125 degC.
49.Pp
50Sensor values are made available through the
51.Dv HW_SENSORS
52.Xr sysctl 3
53interface,
54and can be monitored with the
55.Xr systat 1
56.Ar sensors
57display,
58.Xr sensorsd 8
59and
60.Xr sysctl 8
61.Ar hw.sensors .
62For example, with an
63.Tn AMD
64.Tn Phenom X4
659850 Black Edition 2.5GHz
66.Tn Socket AM2+
67125W quad-core processor:
68.Bd -literal -offset indent
69%sysctl hw.sensors.km0
70hw.sensors.km0.temp0: 60.50 degC
