πΈ baseboard_power πΈ
okay so bestie, welcome to baseboard_power(9) from the Kernel API Manual β yes that's the manual name, it's giving very "kernel API" of it, we love that for us π
β¨ NAME β¨
baseboard_power β the amdgpu driver literally hands you a sysfs API for pulling the current ubb power in watts, and the file baseboard_power is the whole entire vibe for that. like that's the one doing the job π«Ά
So real talk: you want to know how many watts your ubb is pulling right now? bestie that's it, that's the file. baseboard_power. no cap, that's literally the whole thing it does β retrieving current ubb power in watts, courtesy of the amdgpu driver's sysfs API β¨π₯
π SEE ALSO π
okay this list is long and honestly iconic β like the way it just keeps going? main character energy fr fr. every single one of these, no skips, no cuts π
