acpitz — ACPI
thermal zone
acpitz* at acpi?
The acpitz driver supports ACPI Thermal
Zones. Temperature information is available through this driver as a sensor
which is updated every 10 seconds or, if the implementation supports it, via
an event. If the temperature exceeds the ‘critical’
temperature threshold, the system will be shut down and powered off. The
sensor provided by acpitz can be monitored using
sysctl(8) or
sensorsd(8).
The acpitz driver first appeared in
OpenBSD 3.8.
The acpitz driver was written by
