The driver also creates .Va dev.cpu.%d.temperature displaying the maximum temperature of the two sensors located in each CPU core. .Pp For the K10 and K11 families, the driver creates .Va dev.cpu.%d.temperature with the temperature of each core. .Sh BUGS AMD K9 is not supported because temperature reporting has been replaced by Maltese. .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr sysctl 8 .Sh HISTORY The .Nm driver first appeared in .Fx 7.1 . .Sh AUTHORS .An .An Rui Paulo Aq rpaulo@FreeBSD.org .An Norikatsu Shigemura Aq nork@FreeBSD.org
