Linux 6.15 Brings New Hardware Monitoring Additions For AMD BC-250 & Various Sensor ICs


Merged for the Linux 6.15 kernel last week was the big set of hardware monitoring 'HWMON' subsystem updates with new hardware support as well as a few new sensor drivers.

Should you have an HTU31 IC in any of your industrial equipment or custom electronic designs, Linux 6.15 is now able to read the sensor information on the mainline kernel. The TI INA233 current/power monitor IC is designed for servers, telecom infrastructure, HPC environments, battery chargers, and more. There's been a fair amount of work recently adapting the AMD BC-250 to new uses under Linux including experimental Vulkan support.
