Background and Motivation
When the
hwmon-path-abs
and theinput-filename
fields are used for the temperature module, we evaluated the following path:where
gap
is the first file or directory in thehwmon-path-abs
directory. This usually works but it doesn't seem to work for NVME or WiFi temperature sensors. For those cases, there are a bunch of other files in thehwmon-path-abs
directory. In the bad case, the first selected file is not the one with the prefixhwmon
and we end up checking the wrong location for theinput-filename
.Change description
We are simply going through the
hwmon-path-abs
directory and searching for the first file/directory that begins withhwmon
.Test case
I tested this on a AMD based Framework 13 laptop.
