NAME
     coretemp -- device driver for Intel Core on-die digital thermal sensor

SYNOPSIS
     To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following line in your
     kernel configuration file:

           device coretemp

     Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the
     following line in loader.conf(5):

           coretemp_load="YES"

DESCRIPTION
     The coretemp driver provides support for the on-die digital thermal
     sensors, both core level and package level, for Intel Core and newer
     CPUs.  The values are exposed through the HW_SENSORS sysctl(3) tree.  For
     example:

           % sysctl hw.sensors
           hw.sensors.cpu0.temp0: 50.00 degC (node0 core0 temp), OK
           hw.sensors.cpu1.temp0: 50.00 degC (node0 core0 temp), OK
           hw.sensors.cpu2.temp0: 47.00 degC (node0 core1 temp), OK
           hw.sensors.cpu3.temp0: 47.00 degC (node0 core1 temp), OK
           hw.sensors.cpu_node0.temp0: 50.00 degC (node0 temp), OK

     If the core or package temperature reaches critical level, a notify event
     will be sent using devctl(4).

HISTORY
     The coretemp driver first appeared in FreeBSD 7.0.
