 The libsensors library offers an interface to the raw sensors data

+(from lm_sensors 2.8.3) is heavily chip-dependent. Adding or updating
+support for any given chip requires modifying the library's code.
+This is because libsensors was written for the procfs interface
+older kernel modules were using, which wasn't standardized enough.
+Recent versions of libsensors (from lm_sensors 2.8.2 and later) have
+support for the sysfs interface, though.

+Note that this standard isn't completely established yet, so it is subject

 Each chip gets its own directory in the sysfs /sys/devices tree.  To
 find all sensor chips, it is easier to follow the device symlinks from
 /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon*.
 
-Up to lm-sensors 3.0.0, libsensors looks for hardware monitoring attributes
-in the "physical" device directory. Since lm-sensors 3.0.1, attributes found
-in the hwmon "class" device directory are also supported. Complex drivers
-(e.g. drivers for multifunction chips) may want to use this possibility to
-avoid namespace pollution. The only drawback will be that older versions of
-libsensors won't support the driver in question.

 All sysfs values are fixed point numbers.
 
 There is only one value per file, unlike the older /proc specification.
