Description Gerrit Slomma 2010-06-12 13:56:05 UTC
Description of problem:

i5k_amb Kernel-module does not work with lm_sensors and is detected as "Driver `to-be-written' (should be inserted)" by lm_sensors. The driver is not inserted into /etc/sysconfig/lm_sensors. If loaded via modprobe sensors does not read out the sensors.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

kernel-2.6.18-194.el5.x86_64
lm_sensors-2.10.7-9.el5.x86_64

How reproducible:

every time.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. sensors-detect (confirm all questions with return)
2. sensors (no output of i5k_amb)
3. modprobe i5k_amb
4. sensors (output of i5k_amb-isa-0000 with no values)
  
Actual results:

# sensors
(...)
i5k_amb-isa-0000
Adapter: ISA adapter

#

Expected results:

# sensors|grep DIMM
Ch. 0 DIMM 0: +61.0°C (low = +74.5°C, high = +124.0°C)
Ch. 1 DIMM 0: +57.0°C (low = +74.5°C, high = +124.0°C)

Additional info:

The expected result is of a backported i5k_amb of the kernel-source and a backported lm_sensors-3.0.2-1 of Fedora 10, backports of both done by me.

Seems to be a problem of lm_sensors, rebased.

drop me here cat /proc/cpuinfo please. I will do some investigation around.

Comment 7 Gerrit Slomma 2010-10-06 14:43:12 UTC
Sorry for the delay, i must have missed the notification.
But what does /proc/cpuinfo has to do with this?

Comment 8 Nikola Pajkovsky 2010-10-07 12:03:01 UTC
Created attachment 452092 [details]
patched sensors-detect

Sorry, I was thinking that you are talking about cpu. Nevertheless, try this sensors-detect. Seems that everything is ok, but needs to be removed *to-be-written* and put there i5k_amb.

Feedback welcome.

Comment 9 Gerrit Slomma 2010-10-07 18:29:05 UTC
No as stated in my initial post: sensors-detect detects "to-be-written" and does not insert the i5k_amb into /etc/sysconfig/lm_sensors hence the module is not loaded it lm_sensors ist started. If i5k_amb is modprobed by hand i get
i5k_amb-isa-0000
Adapter: ISA adapter
but no values are printed.
My own built module works without problems.
The module from rhel6b work without problems too.

# sensors
i5k_amb-isa-0000
Adapter: ISA adapter
Ch. 0 DIMM 0: +53.0°C  (low  = +74.5°C, high = +124.0°C)
Ch. 1 DIMM 0: +48.5°C  (low  = +74.5°C, high = +124.0°C)

(however it is loaded by default no idea why...)

Comment 10 Gerrit Slomma 2010-10-07 18:29:37 UTC
the module from rhel6b in rhel6b to be a tad bit more specific...

Comment 11 RHEL Program Management 2011-01-11 20:15:37 UTC
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for
inclusion in the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Because the affected component is not scheduled to be updated in the
current release, Red Hat is unfortunately unable to address this
request at this time. Red Hat invites you to ask your support
representative to propose this request, if appropriate and relevant,
in the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Comment 12 RHEL Program Management 2011-01-11 23:00:29 UTC
This request was erroneously denied for the current release of
Red Hat Enterprise Linux.  The error has been fixed and this
request has been re-proposed for the current release.

Comment 13 Kai Schaetzl 2011-01-25 14:04:50 UTC
What does "current release" mean? Is this to be included in the next errata upgrade for the current 5.6 kernel?

This bug is currently under consideration for being fixed in 5.7, but note that this bug is against lm_sensors, not the kernel. Based on comment #9 though, it looks like this bug should be changed to the kernel component, so I'm moving it there. Once fixed in 5.7, it *can* be proposed for inclusion in a 5.6 errata kernel as well.

Comment 15 Jarod Wilson 2011-01-26 16:46:03 UTC
Setting state back to NEW, as I believe this bug needs to be assigned to a kernel engineer here. Prarit, do you know who the appropriate assignee would be on this?

Assigning to dnelson.

Comment 17 Dean Nelson 2011-02-08 18:49:38 UTC
Component-wise, there are really two separate issues here.

This bug will be used to track the kernel refresh of drivers/hwmon/i5k_amb.c, to make it as much like upstream as RHEL5 will allow.

And I'll clone a new bug to track the refresh of lm_sensors to something that works. RHEL5 has version 2.10.7 and doesn't work. RHEL6 has version 3.1.1 and does work.

Comment 18 Gerrit Slomma 2011-02-08 18:56:02 UTC
Wich bug-ID is the cloned one so i too could keep track?

Bug 676079 was cloned from this bug.

Comment 20 Kai Schaetzl 2011-02-08 19:23:10 UTC
Gerrit, is there a chance you could provide a src.rpm of that backported module
for download somewhere?

Comment 21 Gerrit Slomma 2011-02-09 05:43:14 UTC
I have the source-package here http://sixnationstate.dyndns.org/download/i5k_amb.tar.gz
Makefile to build kernel-module and rpm included, src.rpm not, but you could feel free to build one yourself or modify anything in there.

Comment 22 Kai Schaetzl 2011-02-09 10:14:35 UTC
Thanks a lot, Gerrit, I think that will do!

Comment 24 RHEL Program Management 2011-02-11 02:29:39 UTC
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red
Hat Enterprise Linux maintenance release.  Product Management has requested
further review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential
inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux Update release for currently deployed
products.  This request is not yet committed for inclusion in an Update
release.

Comment 28 Jarod Wilson 2011-05-13 22:18:31 UTC
Patch(es) available in kernel-2.6.18-261.el5
You can download this test kernel (or newer) from http://people.redhat.com/jwilson/el5
Detailed testing feedback is always welcomed.

Reproduced in 2.6.18-259.el5 and verified in 2.6.18-260.el5.
