The System Management Controller on Apple Silicon devices is responsible
for integrating and exposing the data reported by the vast array of
hardware monitoring sensors present on these devices. It is also
responsible for fan control, and allows users to manually set fan
speeds if they so desire. Add a hwmon driver to expose current,
power, temperature, and voltage monitoring sensors, as well as
fan speed monitoring and control via the SMC on Apple Silicon devices.
The SMC firmware has no consistency between devices, even when they
share an SoC. The FourCC keys used to access sensors are almost
random. An M1 Mac mini will have different FourCCs for its CPU core
temperature sensors to an M1 MacBook Pro, for example. For this
reason, the valid sensors for a given device are specified in a
child of the SMC Devicetree node. The driver uses this information
to determine which sensors to make available at runtime.
