Phoronix: Several More ASUS Motherboards Will Enjoy Sensor Monitoring With Linux 6.2

With a new patch queued up in the hardware monitoring subsystem's hwmon-next branch, several more ASUS motherboards for Intel and AMD processors will enjoy working sensor monitoring support...

And there I hoped for some B650E boards ...

WMI == Windows Management Instrumentation?

If yes, why is hardware coupled to specific OS interface? Doesn't it go against basic engineering principles?

i've been waiting for this, my mobo is one of the ones here.

Presumably the WMI interface abstracts the underlying monitor chip configuration so the OEM can change it as needed to deal with supply chain issues while still providing a the same driver with proper sensor labelling.

Could use please share such information in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=204807?
* your motherboard name (/sys/class/dmi/id/board_name)
* have use checked with acpi_enforce_resources=lax ?
* dsdt uefi dump "acpidump -b -n DSDT"
* What error do you have in dmesg? Is It something like:

[207642.852150] nct6775: Found NCT6776D/F or compatible chip at 0x2e:0x290
[207642.852158] ACPI Warning: SystemIO range 0x0000000000000295-0x0000000000000296 conflicts with OpRegion 0x0000000000000290-0x0000000000000299 (\_GPE.HWRE) (20220331/utaddress-204)
[207642.852163] ACPI: OSL: Resource conflict; ACPI support missing from driver?

or some other error like sensor is ITE87 instead of nct6775?

Note: New X670 boards use different WMI interface and different sensor version and can be checked either with patch from bug 204807 (contains additional boards support) or with hwmon mail list patch "ROG STRIX X670E-I GAMING WIFI" only.

Is there a wiki somewhere with all the boards supported?

Is there a wiki somewhere with all the boards supported?

Source code has list of fully supported boards:
1. https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux...ec_sensors.rst
2. https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux...mi_sensors.rst
3. https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux...v6.1-rc5#n1044
4. https://github.com/zeule/asus-ec-sensors
5. https://github.com/electrified/asus-wmi-sensors

Several additional boards is supported by hacks, and such board list is contained in bug attached patch only.

As I write this (following the addition of NCT6798D support), the code (without added hacks) includes support for the following ASUS Board Names:

Thank you for the list. I just wanted to make sure the mobo I'm planning to buy was on the list.
