## Historique du projet et usages

lm-sensors is the Linux user-space package for reading and configuring hardware-monitoring data such as temperatures, voltages, fan speeds, and PWM fan control.

### Historique du projet

The current lm-sensors version 3 line provides user-space support for Linux hardware monitoring drivers in Linux 2.6.5 and later, while older kernels require the version 2 line. The package is organized around documentation, sample configuration files, libsensors, and programs such as sensors-detect, sensors, sensord, fancontrol, and pwmconfig.

The version 3 CHANGES file records the 3.0.0 release cycle in 2007, including the initial 3.0.0-rc1 release, the switch to the default /etc/sensors3.conf configuration file during the release candidates, and the 3.0.0 final release in November 2007. Later releases continued to track new kernel hwmon attributes, chip families, JSON output, systemd integration, and new configuration samples.

### Historique d'adoption

lm-sensors became a standard Linux hardware-monitoring plumbing package because the kernel drivers expose data through sysfs, while libsensors supplies board-specific labels and conversion rules that applications can share instead of duplicating. The upstream README asks users to contribute board configurations so others with the same hardware do not need to recreate them.

Package-manager adoption is broad in the supplied package data, with entries across Alpine, Debian, Fedora, Homebrew, Nix, Arch, Ubuntu, and openSUSE families. That matches its role as the CLI backend behind many desktop monitors, server dashboards, and home-lab scripts.

### Modes d'utilisation

Typical use starts with running sensors-detect as root so the tool can identify installed hardware and recommend kernel modules. The sensors command reports current readings and can set limits, while sensord can watch values, log alarms, and feed an RRD database.

libsensors reads kernel hwmon data from /sys and applies labels or scaling from configuration files. fancontrol reads its own configuration, usually generated by pwmconfig, and adjusts PWM outputs from temperature readings; upstream warns users to configure fan control carefully because bad settings can damage hardware.

### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

lm-sensors is one of those small packages that makes an entire category of system tooling possible. It turns messy per-board hwmon naming into stable CLI and library output, so package maintainers, monitoring stacks, and shell scripts can depend on sensors rather than chasing individual chip drivers.

For Homebrew and other Unix package sets, lm-sensors is interesting because its upstream is Linux-specific even when package metadata can appear in cross-platform indexes. The useful behavior depends on Linux kernel hwmon support, sysfs, and local hardware.

### Chronologie

- 2007-09-25: lm-sensors 3.0.0-rc1 is marked as the initial version 3 release.
- 2007-10-28: The 3.0.0-rc3 notes record /etc/sensors3.conf as the default configuration file.
- 2007-11-24: lm-sensors 3.0.0 is released.
- 2019-10-18: lm-sensors 3.6.0 adds JSON-related fixes and many sensor-detection updates.
- 2024-01-13: lm-sensors 3.6.2 adds richer sensor metadata and JSON output changes.

### Related projects

- The Linux kernel hwmon subsystem, libsensors, sensors-detect, fancontrol, pwmconfig, sensord, GNOME Sensors Applet, Psensor, PowerTOP, and s-tui are closely related in the upstream documentation.
