RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

For Core i7 processors and running sensors-detect, coretemp module is not loaded automatically and temperatures not shown. If I manually modprobe coretemp, I see the output.

# Generated by sensors-detect on Thu Jul  1 13:38:56 2010
# This file is sourced by /etc/init.d/lm_sensors and defines the modules to
# be loaded/unloaded.
#
# The format of this file is a shell script that simply defines variables:
# HWMON_MODULES for hardware monitoring driver modules, and optionally
# BUS_MODULES for any required bus driver module (for example for I2C or SPI).

HWMON_MODULES="sbs"

# For compatibility reasons, modules are also listed individually as variables
#    MODULE_0, MODULE_1, MODULE_2, etc.
# You should use BUS_MODULES and HWMON_MODULES instead if possible.

MODULE_0=sbs



lm_sensors-3.1.1-8.el6.x86_64
Comment 2 Nikola Pajkovsky 2010-07-07 08:28:11 UTC 
Do you have installed lm_sensors-sensord?
Comment 3 David Kovalsky 2010-07-08 12:40:02 UTC 
Yes, lm_sensors-sensord-3.1.1-8.el6.x86_64
Comment 4 David Kovalsky 2010-07-08 13:53:53 UTC 
Furthermore, even if I set 

HWMON_MODULES="coretemp"
MODULE_0=coretemp

in /etc/sysconfig/lm_sensors

service sensord start doesn't load the module.

Checking the initscript, only sensord is sourced from /etc/sysconfig/. 

It seems like 2 bugs to me:
1) sensors-detect doesn't create a proper config file with coretemp module specified

2) lm_sensors ship a file that isn't used anywhere - /etc/sysconfig/lm_sensors
Comment 5 David Kovalsky 2010-07-08 13:54:41 UTC 
/etc/sysconfig/sensord:

# configuration for harware sensors monitoring daemon
# in intevrals use suffix "m" for minutes, "s" for seconds, "h" for hours
# 0 means turning facility off

# interval between scanning alarms
INTERVAL=1m

# interval between logging
LOG_INTERVAL=20m

# interval between RRD logging
# RRD_INTERVAL=1m

# RRD db location
# RRD_LOGFILE=/var/log/sensors.rrd
Comment 6 David Kovalsky 2010-07-08 14:01:00 UTC 
If it makes a difference, I ran sensors-detect before installing lm_sensors-sensord.

Issues mentioned above don't seem to be limited only to Core i7, raising priority.

Damn, I forgot add a few lines into init script.
