[SOLVED] Update 16.7.10 -> 11 thermal sensors (amdtemp)

Previous topic - Next topic
after updating from 16.7.10 to 16.7.11 the widget >>thermal sensors<< shows nothing anymore.

the 16.7.10 config in System_advanced_misc/thermal sensors  hardware (amdtemp) was still active in 16.7.11,
also disable and reenable doesn´t help.

my hardware: pc engines APU1D4 with amd g-t40e processor

a quick check in a terminal session shows that the kernel module >>amdtemp<< is not loaded (anymore?)

test:

sysctl dev.cpu.0   --> no temperature shown
kldstat | grep amd  --> nothing

quick fix:

kldload amdtemp  --> ... Load amdtemp ...
sysctl dev.cpu.1 --> temperature shown

thermal sensors in Dashboard|Lobby also working again!

... of course until next reboot, so my question is change it in freebsd or somewhere in the opnsense config?

Same issue on Intel hardware (Dell servers).

Couldn't look into this in detail, yet. But from a first glimpse it is the same problem here: the kernel module is not loaded on boot.

Same on an apu2 AMD GX-412TC SOC (4 cores).  And aesni.ko did not load on boot either, but perhaps it's built into the new kernel, but it loads.

root@a:~ # kldload aesni
root@a:~ # kldstat | grep ae
42    1 0xffffffff8261a000 2275     aesni.ko

Same issue here on Intel hardware (coretemp)

like above work around is

# kldload coretemp

Hot-fixed in 16.7.11_1. Thanks for the quick report!

Requires a reboot or save from the System: Settings: Misc page.

Hi Franco,

thanks a lot for for the quick fix. I can confirm this fix works on Intel and AMD platforms, no reboot required.

As you suggested, clicking "save from the System: Settings: Misc page" after applying the hot fix works just fine.

Best
