AMD HD 7970 about hwsensors

[CozmoNate]

Check 1.0.126.

I still can not upload compiled binaries because of git glitch..

[mar1o]

I will build and report !

Thanks !

Edit, build without error and installed in S/L/E ( 10.8.3).. i replace complete fakesmc whit the new one ( whit the new plugins inside) , but it make a kernel panic when it will show the desktop.
Whit the old one this not happen.

Here is the complete log of the console :

If you need any other info or log , just say .

Edit again

The problem is evidenced whit loading the menu bar extension ( HWmonitor Version 1.0.126 (2.3.20) or any monitor app like istat menus whit the new GPUSensors.kext installed.. when the app load the system freeze , but with the old one ( GPUSensors.kext) is loading any monitoring app without crash.

git glitch..? what happen?

[helps]

you can upload the compiled binaries to Dropbox

[mar1o]

tks 👍 )

I have got it.

[mar1o]

Just try whit the installed pkg .. but again the same kernel panic.

Whit the last update i have the same KP

i remove this part from RadeonChipinfo.h and compile again in the Dec 23 version

{ 0x6798, CHIP_FAMILY_Evergreen, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 },

And it work , load the istat menus without problems or KP .. obviously without a temp or fan speed measurement of the Gpu ( 7970 ) .

[CozmoNate]

Iam planing to rewrite RadeonSesnors. In the actual linux code I see only temperature sensor reading implementation. So it is questionably if it will be more then temperature sensor for AMD cards.

[mar1o]

It will be nice ! i will be wait for it !

Thanks !

Newest commit again panic/reboot at login with GPU sensors module installed

[CozmoNate]

Try latest rev, it should use si not evergreen type sensor for your card. If I am right.

[CozmoNate]

Also I want to see your kernel log with the latest driver installed

[eep357]

Still panics going to desktop, but some GPUndebuging before getting to login screen and doing sleep trick. Download attached "image" and change file extension to .txt

[CozmoNate]

This is beta drivers? It is better to wait until production version will be released.

[eep357]

yes, only beta have 7xxx support, newest D50 release. agree best to wait, should be soon!

I would like to raise this issue.
The panic occurs only when HWMonitor is loaded. The extensions itself loads fine.

kextstat | grep org
   28    1 0xffffff7f810a9000 0x13000    0x13000    org.netkas.driver.FakeSMC (417) <9 7 5 4 3>
   39    0 0xffffff7f810bc000 0x13000    0x13000    org.hwsensors.driver.GPUSensors (324) <38 28 10 7 5 4 3>

Additionally it says that "ATY,bin_image" was not found. It is clearly there, though.

ioreg and dmesg parts:
http://www.sendspace.com/file/sqabse

PEG0:GFX0:AMDPitcairnGraphicsAccelerator contains a key named "sensor-properties".
Maybe it can be used somehow.

[eep357]

I'm using iStat only and not HW monitor since iStat4 release (no offense Kozlek :) ), KP last I checked but have not tried newer version since my last comment

Actually the panic happens with iStat, too. I just tested it.
iStat running -> load GPUPlugin -> panic.

EDIT:

On load without HWMonitor to avoid a crash:

After opening HWMonitor it panics with backtrace to FakeSMC. Nothing is logged.

Has any process been made with fixing the GPUSensor files for 7970s?

[CozmoNate]

Fixed, working.
