STRUCT AMDXDNA_DRM_QUERY_SENSOR(9)

💅 NAME

struct amdxdna_drm_query_sensor — literally the data for one single sensor. that's it. that's the whole vibe ✨

🎀 SYNOPSIS

struct amdxdna_drm_query_sensor {
    __u8 label[64];
    __u32 input;
    __u32 max;
    __u32 average;
    __u32 highest;
    __u8 status[64];
    __u8 units[16];
    __s8 unitm;
    __u8 type;
    __u8 pad[6];
 };

okay so bestie, this is a struct, and it's giving "little info card for exactly one sensor" 🫶

🌸 Members

• label — the name for a sensor. like its little nametag 💖 (it's __u8 label[64], so 64 bytes of name, keep it cute and keep it short)
• input — the current value of the sensor. the right now number, the main character reading 👑
• max — the maximum value possible for the sensor. the ceiling, the limit, the "it cannot go higher than this" ✨
• average — the average value of the sensor. the chill middle-ground number 🎀
• highest — the highest recorded sensor value for this driver load for the sensor. ngl this one's a brag — it's the peak, but only for this driver load specifically, so don't go quoting it like it's an all-time record 💀
• status — the sensor status. how it's doing, emotionally and electrically 🌈 (__u8 status[64])
• units — the sensor units. the "what are we even measuring here" field 🦋 (__u8 units[16])
• unitm — translates value member variables into the correct unit via (pow(10, unitm) * value). yes bestie, it's a power-of-ten multiplier, the math is literally right there in the manual, i'm not making it up 🧚 (it's signed, __s8, so it can go negative, slay)
• type — the sensor type from enum amdxdna_sensor_type. it's an enum, iykyk 🌸
• pad — structure padding. it's __u8 pad[6], it does nothing, it's just there for the alignment vibe check 💅

lowkey reminder bestie: input, max, average and highest are all in the sensor's own units — if you're staring at a number and it looks unhinged, check unitm and units before you @ anyone 🙈

anyway that's the whole page, mwah 💋 — this came from ./include/uapi/drm, dated October 2026, and yes it's filed under struct amdx...query_sensor(9) because the kernel truncated the name and honestly? iconic. periodt. 👑
