baseboard_temp(9)
π baseboard_temp(9) π
okay so bestie, this is a page from the Kernel API Manual and it's genuinely so short you could read it while your iced coffee melts. let's get into it π«Ά
β¨ DESCRIPTION β¨
so the amdgpu driver literally ships a sysfs API whose whole job is handing you the current baseboard temperature metrics data. that's it, that's the vibe π‘οΈβ¨
the file you want is called baseboard_temp β like, that's the file, that's the one, no cap π
and when you read it? it just dumps all the current baseboard temperature metrics data at you. the whole thing. all of it. one read and you're drowning in temps, and honestly? iconic π
ngl it's giving "small file, big feelings" β there are no options, no flags, no arguments here. you read the file, you get the data. periodt π
π SEE ALSO π
bestie there is a lot of family here, so buckle up, i'm listing every single one because i would never do them dirty like that π

seriously, go read them, they're all your besties too π¦π
and that's the whole page, babe! π mwah π this little cutie lives over in ./drivers/gpu/drm/amd/pm, and it's dated October 2026 β so it's from the future, main character energy fr fr βπ₯ go check your temps, ily, bye! πΈπ§
