Hi, I'm running on a MSI 410I Pro Wifi board with a 'Nuvoton NCT6687D' Super I/O as you can see here: https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91MNlzN5O9L._AC_SL1500_.jpg The Kernel documentation says the module nct6683 supports the nct6687, too. (https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/hwmon/nct6683.html; please compare with: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v5.10/hwmon/nct6683.html) I'd tried the Kernel module of the current 5.10.61 release but it results in: modprobe nct6683 modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'nct6683': No such device Hence my 'ln-sensors' output looks that: coretemp-isa-0000 Adapter: ISA adapter Package id 0: +31.0°C (high = +80.0°C, crit = +100.0°C) Core 0: +28.0°C (high = +80.0°C, crit = +100.0°C) Core 1: +29.0°C (high = +80.0°C, crit = +100.0°C) Core 2: +31.0°C (high = +80.0°C, crit = +100.0°C) Core 3: +27.0°C (high = +80.0°C, crit = +100.0°C) acpitz-acpi-0 Adapter: ACPI interface temp1: +27.8°C (crit = +119.0°C) nvme-pci-0100 Adapter: PCI adapter Composite: +45.9°C (low = -0.1°C, high = +84.8°C) (crit = +94.8°C) ERROR: Can't get value of subfeature temp2_min: I/O error ERROR: Can't get value of subfeature temp2_max: I/O error Sensor 1: +62.9°C (low = +0.0°C, high = +0.0°C) sensors-detect shows me: Some Super I/O chips contain embedded sensors. We have to write to standard I/O ports to probe them. This is usually safe. Do you want to scan for Super I/O sensors? (YES/no): YES Probing for Super-I/O at 0x2e/0x2f Trying family `National Semiconductor/ITE'... No Trying family `SMSC'... No Trying family `VIA/Winbond/Nuvoton/Fintek'... No Trying family `ITE'... No Probing for Super-I/O at 0x4e/0x4f Trying family `National Semiconductor/ITE'... No Trying family `SMSC'... No Trying family `VIA/Winbond/Nuvoton/Fintek'... Yes Found unknown chip with ID 0xd592 So, the Super I/O chip isn't recognized at all. Thanksfully I'd found this module: https://github.com/Fred78290/nct6687d The module is loading properly, no reboot necessary. My ouput now shows this (it's a fanless system so please don't wonder about the '0 rpm'): coretemp-isa-0000 Adapter: ISA adapter Package id 0: +33.0°C (high = +80.0°C, crit = +100.0°C) Core 0: +30.0°C (high = +80.0°C, crit = +100.0°C) Core 1: +30.0°C (high = +80.0°C, crit = +100.0°C) Core 2: +33.0°C (high = +80.0°C, crit = +100.0°C) Core 3: +29.0°C (high = +80.0°C, crit = +100.0°C) acpitz-acpi-0 Adapter: ACPI interface temp1: +27.8°C (crit = +119.0°C) nct6687-isa-0a20 Adapter: ISA adapter +12V: 12.26 V (min = +12.26 V, max = +12.26 V) +5V: 5.07 V (min = +5.07 V, max = +5.07 V) +3.3V: 3.34 V (min = +3.34 V, max = +3.34 V) CPU Soc: 640.00 mV (min = +0.64 V, max = +0.64 V) CPU Vcore: 604.00 mV (min = +0.60 V, max = +0.60 V) CPU 1P8: 0.00 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +0.00 V) CPU VDDP: 0.00 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +0.00 V) DRAM: 2.00 V (min = +2.00 V, max = +2.00 V) Chipset: 946.00 mV (min = +0.95 V, max = +0.95 V) CPU Fan: 0 RPM (min = 0 RPM, max = 0 RPM) Pump Fan: 0 RPM (min = 0 RPM, max = 0 RPM) System Fan #1: 0 RPM (min = 0 RPM, max = 0 RPM) System Fan #2: 0 RPM (min = 0 RPM, max = 0 RPM) System Fan #3: 0 RPM (min = 0 RPM, max = 0 RPM) System Fan #4: 0 RPM (min = 0 RPM, max = 0 RPM) System Fan #5: 0 RPM (min = 0 RPM, max = 0 RPM) System Fan #6: 0 RPM (min = 0 RPM, max = 0 RPM) CPU: +32.0°C (low = +32.0°C, high = +33.0°C) System: +48.0°C (low = +48.0°C, high = +48.0°C) VRM MOS: +35.0°C (low = +35.0°C, high = +35.0°C) PCH: +58.0°C (low = +58.0°C, high = +58.0°C) CPU Socket: +33.0°C (low = +33.0°C, high = +34.0°C) PCIe x1: +29.0°C (low = +29.0°C, high = +29.0°C) M2_1: +23.0°C (low = +23.0°C, high = +23.0°C) nvme-pci-0100 Adapter: PCI adapter Composite: +48.9°C (low = -0.1°C, high = +84.8°C) (crit = +94.8°C) ERROR: Can't get value of subfeature temp2_min: I/O error ERROR: Can't get value of subfeature temp2_max: I/O error Sensor 1: +66.8°C (low = +0.0°C, high = +0.0°C) dmesg shows me now: [ 4592.081335] nct6687: loading out-of-tree module taints kernel.

If I'm reading this correctly, you're asking for a new package to support this out of tree kernel module? https://github.com/Fred78290/nct6687d
Yes! Maybe I can try on my own this weekend.
Created attachment 757775 [details, diff] Kernel patch for NCT6687D Finally I done it. Successfully tested on Kernel version 5.10.76-gentoo-r1
Created attachment 777047 [details, diff] Adjusted patch for Kernel 5.15.32-r1
Module is in tree. So, this issue can be closed?
In which kernel version?
