2008-03-16Reduce the number of unnecessary time(3)/gettimeofday(2) calls, and make sureConstantine A. Murenin
that the time always goes forward, so reports are neither duplicated nor lost. Report state changes stabilised through dampening immediately, instead of delay- ing them until the next reporting window; previously, it was common for check() to lag one second behind report(), hence the initial report was delayed one extra minute (this then reduces the number of sleep(3)/nanosleep(2) calls, too). ok ckuethe; some man-page suggestions jmc

2008-03-13Allow a program invoked on state change to receive sensor status. PerhapsChris Kuethe
you might want to toggle an error light when a sensor is not OK. Perhaps you might want to schedule a shutdown if a sensor is reporting bad news. Now you can do this, and cancel that pending shutdown (or turn off the error light) if the sensor decides all is well. ok mbalmer (who came up with an almost identical diff months ago) useful feedback and generally positive responses from deraadt, henning, msf

2007-08-14Commentary in the examples section was wrong from the start, because it gaveConstantine A. Murenin
the impression that alerts are only issued when things go wrong, not when they come back to specification -- but this was never the case with sensorsd. Whilst here, also zip some useless examples, as we now have so many. Discussed with jmc@

2007-06-01Convert sensorsd to use two-level data-structures. This makes sensorsd beConstantine A. Murenin
more consistent with the current sensors framework, conserves some memory, and will make it easier to implement hotplugging and other nifty features in the future. This does not change any other functionality ATM. OK henning@, beck@.

2007-05-30Major update to sensorsd.Constantine A. Murenin
Improves support for both 'smart' (those providing sensor status) and 'old-style' sensors. Due to re-design, the following improvements are now present and many flaws are now gone: == for smart sensors == * automatically monitor all sensors that provide status by themselves, with the possibility to ignore certain individual sensors or sensors of certain type (appropriate template for sensorsd.conf is included) * report actual sensor status as provided by the driver. Previously, WARN, CRITICAL and UNKNOWN statuses were considered the same, but now they are different and will be reported separately. This also improves readability of the log-files and consistency with sysctl output. * ability to ignore status provided by the driver with the 'istatus' keyword ("ignore automatic status" or "I set the status"), with the possibility to set your own settings for acceptable limits. Previously, it was not possible to set any kind of user limits for those sensors that had their own status facilities. == for old-style sensors == * previously, lm(4)-style fans that were flagged SENSOR_FINVALID during sensorsd startup were completely ignored, but now their invalid status is appropriately reported, and they are monitored again when they come out of their invalid mode * previously, a sensor that had an empty entry in the configuration file was reported to be "within limits", but now it will not be monitored at all (unless, of cause, it provides its own status) As a bonus, sensorsd syslog entries should now be shorter, and the majority of them will fit on one line on 80-column terminals. ok beck@, henning@, deraadt@
2007-05-29Remove watch_cnt in preparation for my bigger patch that makes sensorsdConstantine A. Murenin
usable by default, where we will monitor all sensors that automatically provide status, and this watch_cnt won't make much sense. Besides, upon startup, sensorsd already shows all sensors that it is going to monitor, making this watch_cnt rather unimportant. ok henning@
