First of all thanks to Netkas for the new era in Hackintoshes - FakeSMC.
Now we joined our efforts to make a tool for monitoring temperatures, fans and other sensors or parameters.
Mozo - maintainer, me and usr-sse2 - team members.

The project is based on Netkas's 2.5 version but with plugin support. It is opensource and located at www.assembla.com.
Sources can be obtained by SVN
svn co http://subversion.assembla.com/svn/fakesmc

Plugins created:
IntelThermal - Intel CPU temperature monitoring.
LPCMonitor - temperatures and fans from ITE, Winbond and Fintek controllers. - now replaced by SuperIO plugin
TZplugin - temperature from ACPI device "Thermal Zone" - now excluded by ACPI monitor replacement
NVidia GPU temperature and FAN
Intel X3100 temperature
Radeon temperature
ACPI monitor - temperatures, fans, voltage, current - all that you can find in your DSDT. Manual DSDT modifying required. Look posts 10-23
For example

CODE

                //Slice - there is my ACPI monitor device
                Device (SPIO)
                {
                    Name (_CID, "monitor")
                                        Name (_STA, 0x0F)
                    Method (SMC0, 0, NotSerialized) //System FAN0
                    {
                        Store (\_TZ.TZ0.FRSP(), Local0)
                        Return (Local0)
                     }

                    Method (SMCA, 0, NotSerialized) //CPU heatsink
                    {
                        Store (\_SB.PCI0.LPC0.EC0.RTMP, Local0)
                        Return (Local0)
                     }

                }

How to install FakeSMC

To look the values you need iStatMenu or iStatPro.
The last one I have modified to show battery info.
Click to view attachment

~~To monitor Thermal Zone~~ (- deprecated) you need AppleACPIThermal.kext.
Correct it dependency to your AppleACPIPlatform version.

Bugs corrected, devices added, improvements.
Now there are 2 plugins for the same purpose, use only one of them
SuperIO supports ITE, Winbond, Fintek
SMCITEController supports only ITE but more functions then SuperIO.

New revision.
* Add Radeon support
* Add NSC support
* Add CPU freq monitor (CPUi.kext used together with IntelThermal.kext) for use with smcK utility.
* different enhancements
If you have ITE chip you can replace SuperIO plugin by SMCITEController plugin for use with smcK utility.

It is really strange. I install plugin, reboot and see it is not loaded.
Load manually - works.
Clear caches, delete mkext and so on.
Next day this plugin loaded at boot and works fine.

I added

CODE

<key>OSBundleRequired</key>
<string>Root</string>

to the 3 plugins and get a kernel Panic on LPCMonitor

i too have a random KP. Tried loading in /Extra or S/L/E. I thought i had it working, but seems its not stable dur to the KP regarding the Thermal plugins.

Great work!! This is working flawlessly here

Thx!

EDIT: Would it be possible to label the fans ? ex: CPU, front, back.... like in real macs.
EDIT 2: I know we are talking about monitoring, but is there any chance to have the fan speed profiles working?

Finally!

Was hard to read on apple.ru

I do have same KP on LPC plugin on W83667HG, have to put it on mkext to get it loaded, but KP.
What I noticed playing with old version, it dosen't like more then 3 fans, when I added 4(since first 4 are all on BANK0 so no need to play with BSEL) i got KP

Also got stuck on divisor stuff, still don't get that code...

Here are my ASUS DSDT entry's for it:

Sure, the work is only at initial stage.
There is NVidia GPU temperature reading at alpha stage.
Battery temperature is near. etc.

THeKiNG
If you prepare some Device in DSDT for a kext may attach to by IONameMatch and include ACPI methods like

CODE

Method (GFN1, 0, Unserialized)
{
Store (SIOR.FAN1, Local0)
Return (Local0)
}

Then I can create a plugin with reading

CODE

if (kIOReturnSuccess == SIORDevice->evaluateInteger("GFN1", &tmp))
Fan1speed = ((int)tmp;

and assign some SMC key to the value

Great!
I'll do this and let you know.
But we need to make sure the names aren't used on other methods, so IMO we can use something like this:

CODE

                    Name (SMC0, Zero) // FAN1 key
                    Method (RFN1, 0, NotSerialized)
                    {
                        Store (FAN1, SMC0)
                        Return (SMC0)
                    }

Then you can make it look for SMC0 to SMCZ, guess those are sufficient for what we need

And create a set like this:
SMC0=FAN1/System FAN
SMC1=FAN2/CPU FAN
SMC2=FAN3/Power FAN
SMC3=AUX1 FAN/Exhaust1
SMC4=AUX2 FAN/Exhaust2
// Guess 5 FANS are enough for most configurations...
Then:
SMC5=Temperature1/CPU Heatsync
SMC6=Temperature2/NorthBridge
SMC7=Temperature3
SMC8=Temperature4
SMC9=Temperature5

SMCA=CPU VCORE
SMCB=+12V
SMCC=+3.3V
SMCD=+5V
SMCE=
SMCF=
...
What do you think?

Usually fan profile works with good DSDT. You have to set _OSI="Darwin" and related Names like OSFL, OSTP etc.
Next, you must have working AppleLPC, and in some configs AppleACPIEC. And sometimes AppleACPIThermal.kext

Let it be as you propose. I only need a list of SMC keys corresponding to the SMCx

OK! Here we go:

CODE

// Fan Keys:

SMC0 = F0ID "System Fan"
SMC1 = F1ID "Processor Fan"
SMC2 = F2ID "Power Fan"
SMC3 = F3ID "Intake Fan"
SMC4 = F4ID "Exhaust Fan"
SMC5 = F5ID "Aux Fan"
SMC6 = To be filled
SMC7 = To be filled
SMC8 = To be filled
SMC9 = To be filled

// Temperature Keys:

SMCA = TC0H "CPU Heatsink"
SMCB = TN0H "MCP/MCH/Northbridge Heatsink"
SMCC = TW0P "AUX Sensor"
SMCD = To be filled
SMCE = To be filled
SMCF = To be filled
SMCG = To be filled
SMCH = To be filled
SMCI = To be filled
SMCJ = To be filled

// Voltage Keys (V):

SMCK = VCAC "CPU Core Voltage"
SMCL = Vp0C "+12V Voltage"
SMCM = Vp1C "+3.3V Voltage"
SMCN = Vp2C "+5V Voltage"

// Current Values (A):

SMCO = ICAC "CPU Core Current"
SMCP = Ip0C "+12V Current"
SMCQ = Ip1C "+3.3V Current"
SMCR = Ip2C "+5V Current

// Power Keys (W):

SMCS = PC0C "CPU Core Power"
SMCT = To be filled
SMCU = To be filled
SMCV = To be filled
SMCW = To be filled
SMCX = To be filled
SMCY = To be filled
SMCZ = To be filled

What do you think?

Slice

May 25 2010, 09:31 AM

OK! It will be standard.
And what about the device containing this methods?

PS.
For Thermal Zone I use key TN0P aka Northbridge
For NVidia GPU - TG0D - GPU diode
LPC monitor uses keys: TN0P, Th0H,
For Intel CPU keys TC0D, TC1D...
And Fans 0-5

Or create a new one like ATKD?

May be write
Name (_CID, "monitor")
?
So I can write IONameMatch="monitor"

But other question

CODE

                   Name (SMC0, Zero) // FAN1 key
                    Method (RFN1, 0, NotSerialized)
                    {
                        Store (FAN1, SMC0)
                        Return (SMC0)
                    }

I can't read SMC0 because it will not be refreshed by the request.
I need to read RFN1. So I think it is better to write

CODE

                    Method (SMC0, 0, NotSerialized)
                    {
                        Store (FAN1, Local0)
                        Return (Local0)
                    }

I already do it for Thermal zone

CODE

            Method (_TMP, 0, NotSerialized) // get current temp
            {
                Store (\_SB.PCI0.LPCB.WSEC.C2K (\_SB.PCI0.LPCB.WSEC.THS0), Local0)
                Return (Local0)
            }

Another question. What about units to convert values?
For Thermal Zone I know that it is Kelvin*10 and convert it to Celsius in the driver.
What you do? Convert to appropriate units in DSDT so I read it 1:1 or I need to do some conversion in the driver?

THe KiNG

May 25 2010, 12:48 PM

Yes you right about SMC0-Z stuff must be on method.
But can we use Local0 for all or on each Method we use another like Local1 and so?

We can try this:

CODE

    Method (OSDW, 0, NotSerialized)
    {
        If (CondRefOf (_OSI, Local0))
        {
            If (_OSI ("Darwin"))
            {
                Return (One)
            }
        }

        Return (Zero)
    }

CODE

                    Device (SMCK)
                    {
                        Name (_HID, EisaId ("PNP0C02"))
                        Name (_CID, "monitor")
                        Method (_STA, 0, NotSerialized)
                        {
                            If (OSDW ())
                            {
                                Return (0x0F)
                            }
                            Return (Zero)
                        }

                        Method (SMC0, 0, NotSerialized)
                        {
                            Store (FAN1, Local0)
                            Return (Local0)
                        }

                        Method (SMC1, 0, NotSerialized)
                        {
                            Store (FAN2, Local0)
                            Return (Local0)
                        }
                    }

IASL dosen't complain, so we can't know w/o to try

About conversions stuff lemme look on DSDT code and see, but first lets get main stuff working.

Slice

May 25 2010, 02:30 PM

I think Local0 is local for {} or inside a Name/Method as I see at whole DSDT.
It's a pity I can't give you a test driver at the moment. I am on three days trip and will be here only on friday. Wait, please.

But you can test by imitating Thermal Zone. The driver at topic.

CODE

    Scope (_TZ)
    {
        ThermalZone (THM)
        {
            Method (_TMP, 0, NotSerialized) // get current temp
            {
                Store (FAN1, Local0)
                Return (Local0)
            }

        }

Sure no problem, I'll play with what we have so far...
BTW on fakesmc.cpp:
UInt32 line = 0x06;
should be
UInt64 line = 0x06;
a small cosmetic "bug"

L.E. Tried but failed, only way to get plug-ins loaded w/o panic was to put them on s/l/e, including fakesmc.kext
I got fan to display(on my lappie _TZ), but after few sec/refresh speed goes wrong with negative values or crazy speed over 3000 rpm
No idea what is wrong, calling same registers from everest on win gave me right values:

Well everest fail too to read RPM(display static 2400 rpm) but if I query those registers I get good values, e.g. reading ECPU gave me identical value with CPU temp on everst sensor...

                     }

About temperature I know that it is Celsius (because of Thermal Zone usage) but what about FAN?
It is 1 byte value 0..255.
I checked and found that when the FAN stopped the value = 0xFF. Faster run - slow value.
So I invert it and multiply by 10 to get a range of 0..2550.
FanSpeed=(~Value)*10;
Now I have three state
Fan stopped 0rpm
Fan slow 920rpm
Fan fast 1260rpm
Dunno if it is correct values but it clear to see.

Testing with stuff on /S/L/E make it harder to recover in case of KP...and it does KP a lot if something is wrong..

OK so the plug-in looks for "monitor" and SMC0-x(those defined)

"Translate" that, or we should use the same on our SMCx methods...
For the Power(W) and Current(A) I have zero idea what would be the formula...
I'll look on ATKD in windows since DSDT has nothing for it.

Thanks guys, great work.

It adds northbridge temp on ASUS P5E.

Plugins load if fakesmc is in /S/L/E, but don't if it's in /E/E.

At the current moment we have pugins for the fakesmc to look the follow:
Intel CPU temperatures
LPC monitor (ITE or Winbond) - Northbridge and Fans - need to write its names into fakesmc.info.plist
ACPI monitor - Nothbridge, Fans, Voltages, Currents - needs to modify DSDT
NVidia card - GPU temperature and Fan
Intel X3100 - GPU temperature

But the work is not finished. The kexts are in stage of testing.
No ideas about ATI video cards.

Ok, but what i must add with accuracy and precision in dsdt for "ACPI monitor" and what i must write in fakesmc.info.plist for LPC monitor..

Thanks Slice;)

The fakesmc 2.6.2 source works here now with ITE IT8270f without dsdt patch showing cpu voltage and my 2 fans (speed seems to be correct fan1 is a 1500rpm showing 1500rpm). The Nvidia Plugin does not work yet. It shows GPU Diode on my GTX275 but no value (fan is not connected).

Thanks Slice! Looks great

On my HP6720s (sta rosa platform) I dont get any extra sensors. On windows the sensors picked by Everest are CPU temperature, Motherboard temperature and CPU voltage.
The IC on board seems to be an ADM1021a ( http://www.onsemi.com/PowerSolutions/product.do?id=ADM1021A )

Hi, thanks for posting this and the source! The kext you provided works great, but I am having a hard time getting the PlugIns to work. Adding the nVidia kext to the plugins folder doesn't seem to work.

When I compile the most recent fakesmc source and associated plugins it doesn't seem like any of the plugins are registered (only fakesmc shows up in dmesg). Any ideas or tips? Many thanks!

As many before said, until they got mature, install all extensions on default path: /System/Library/Extensions
Or, if you did that, your Super I/O is not supported yet. Use Lavalys Everest to find out the model(check on sensors)

@Slice

Seems "monitor" is not implemented, so worked only with SMCx methods on _TZ device:
-CPU heatsink is done
-CPU FAN, no matter what I tried couldn't get rid on negative values, I used DSDT tachometer method to get some good values, share what you did in DSDT to try?
Here is what I used:

CODE

            Method (SMC0, 1, NotSerialized) //Notebook FAN
            {
                Store (\_SB.PCI0.SBRG.EC0.TACH (Arg0), Local0) // Tach is orig method

                If (LLessEqual (Local0, Zero)) // No effect still got negative values
                {
                    Store (Zero, Local0)
                }

                If (LNotEqual (Local0, Zero)) // From original tachometer method
                {
                    Store (0x80, Local1)
                    Store (0x02, Local2)
                    Multiply (Local1, Local2, Local3)
                    Multiply (Local0, Local3, Local4)
                    Divide (0x03938700, Local4, Local5, Local6)
                    Multiply (Local6, 0x0A, Local6)
                    Store (Local6, Local0)
                }

                Return (Local0)
            }

With this one I got positive values from 130 to 1300 rpm, but sometimes(guess when fan is off?) I got also negative values :|

I have no other sensors to play on lappie, no datasheet avail for ITE IT8752TE so dunno what can I add more...

L.E. Something got wrong on latest revision of FakeSMCLPCMonitor:

About GTX275: currently there is no way to monitor GT200 cards, only GeForce 6...9 series, 'cause gt200 uses i2c sensor instead of internal GPU diode.
The kext is no longer named ~~PTKawainVi~~, that old one doesn't work but hangs or panics. The FakeSMCnVidiaMonitor is in SVN, use it.

Slice, please, remove PTKawainVi and add SVN link here!

Have been installing in S/L/E exclusively.
My I/O is supported, the pre-built kext works fine and recognizes my system and HDD temperature sensors.

When I build the kext from source is when the plugins don't work, I compiled and moved the ACPI, Intel, LPC, and nVidia monitors. Built with 10.5 api on release mode. Compiling from newest Subversion.

Compiled from source last kexts. Nvidia monitor plugin works with my 9500GT. Temperature stays always between 45c to 47c, Is that right?
x3100 monitor works also on my HP6720s, one of the values (GPU diode) stays always in 127, the other seems correct...
Looking very good! Thanks

Hey guys, I was able to get everything to work on 10.5, thanks again!

I had to modify the OSBundleLibraries key in Info.plist to allow things to load. 'kextload -nt' was a helpful tool here.
Are there any good utilities to monitor the nVidia diode? I am using atMonitor and the GPUT isn't recognized, not listing in iStat either. Assuming the diode is recognized here is the dmesg:

CODE

EDIT 2: I know we are talking about monitoring, but is there any chance to have the fan speed profiles working?

There is a chance, but if we cope with writing SMC key, 'cause now iStat or FanControl just can't write SMC keys.

TC0D is CPU Die, you mean TG0D?

Ok, I got for everything to work in iStat and atMonitor, here is how:

Changed temperature slope/offset and calcs to same as architecture case 0x50.
Moved "char value[2];" declaration from .cpp to .h (variable callback scope?)
Added TG0P, TG0T, and TG0H FakeSMCAddKeyCallbacks identical to TG0D

Okay, you are probably right, sorry I didn't mean to critique the code. My concern is the variable would go out of scope and not be available for the callback since it isn't malloced (or newed). Maybe static is a better answer? Or am I just an idiot?
