The sensor value is formatted similarly to previous models (same
bitfield sizes, same units), but must be read off of the internal
System Management Network (SMN) from the System Management Unit (SMU)
co-processor.

- Remove all attempts to guess physical temperature using DiodeOffset.
There are too many reports that it varies wildly depending on motherboard.
Instead, if it is known to scale well and its offset is known from other
temperature sensors on board, the user may set "dev.amdtemp.0.sensor_offset"
tunable to compensate the difference. Document the caveats in amdtemp(4).
- Add a quirk for Socket AM2 Revision G processors. These processors are
known to have a different offset according to Linux k8temp driver.
- Warn about Family 10h Erratum 319. These processors have broken sensors.
- Report temperature in more logical orders under dev.amdtemp node. For
example, "dev.amdtemp.0.sensor0.core0" is now "dev.amdtemp.0.core0.sensor0".
- Replace K8, K10 and K11 with official processor names in amdtemp(4).
bottom of the manpages and order them consistently.
GNU groff doesn't care about the ordering, and doesn't even mention
CAVEATS and SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS as common sections and where to put
them.
