Multiple Processors not supported by HW Monitor about hwsensors

Send me your DarwinDumper dump please.

[CozmoNate]

No, sorry, can't work with it. Use IORegistryExplorer to save the dump.

I get a "file corrupted error" when I try to reopen the dump file. Any clues?

Problem fixed. Latest IORegistry Explorer has a problem...

Here's a link to it on DropBox

I see that it is like a normal system with 24 cores. CPUID returns normal values like for 1 CPU so I can't determine in the simple way the system uses multiple processors or only one. Need further investigations

[braindeadmac]

On this, and a real dual processor Mac Pro, istat shows CPU A and B. So information for the presence of two processors is in there somewhere. I'll try to dig around as well. Up to 32 cores appear to be supported by OS X (at least v 10.5 through 10.8).

iStat Pro shows only first 2 CPU cores, iStat Menus is better but anyway uses information provided by FakeSMC.

Still no love for multiple CPUs....any progress?

[CozmoNate]

Could you run please this testing version of CPUSensors and show me your kernel log?

Thanks. Boots fine

Good. I see all your 12 cores report different temperatures. Did you disabled hyperthreading in bios or your cpus doesn't support it?

[braindeadmac]

Hyperthreading is enabled. These are two Xeon 5690s so 12 cores and 24 threads, that's why you see CPU 0-23 listed from CPUsensors and AppleACPICPU reports processor IDs 1-24. All 24 threads work fine...

[CozmoNate]

Ok. Please, install this testing version of CPUSensors and show me you kernel log with "CPUSensors" filter so you can just post it here

Ok. You have 12 physical cores and get reported 12 different temperature sensors. Looks right so I'll make apropriate changes into CPUSensors to get support your dual cpu units.. Only for per-core digital sensors at this time.

Do you have package temperature reported by HWMonitor?
