It might be possible to trick fancontrol into using temperature output
from a regular file, though I am not sure. Others may know better.
If that works, you could write a little script to run in the background
which keeps reading temperature values from the hard drives and writes
the average (or maybe better max ?) into that file, where fancontrol
would pick it up from there.
Something along the line of
while true
do
m=0
for a in `hddtemp -n /dev/sd[a-z]`
do
if [ $a -gt $m ]; then
m=$a
fi
done
echo $m > /tmp/mymaxtemp
sleep 10
done
and
FCTEMPS=hwmon0/device/pwm2=/tmp/mymaxtemp hwmon0/device/pwm1=hwmon0/device/temp2_input

It seems to work! I created and tested a little bash program that
integrates with fancontrol. Would be great if somebody reviews the
attachment.

Excellent!
This looks like it might be quite useful for others as well.
Wonder if it would make sense to integrate it info fancontrol and/or pwmconfig.

That isn't really a documentation, but an installation shell script.
Not that I care much, it is just odd to have such a script with an ending
of .txt. Is that common nowadays or just your personal touch ?

"average=$(($summation / $count))" would probably be sufficient here.
For a "final" code version, it would be sufficient to calculate
the average after the loop. But then you would have to check for $count = 0,
so I am not sure if it would be worth it.

"echo $(($average * 1000))" seems to work as well and would be a bit simpler.
What is the "/1" for, anyway ? bc doesn't seem to need it.
Also, you are loosing precision because average is calculated (and rounded down) first.
You could avoid that with "echo $(($average * 1000 / $count))" if you check
for the $count=0 case. But then that doesn't really make much of a difference,
so I am not sure if it would be worth it either.

Might be better to add a startup script in /etc/init.d and/or /etc/rc*.d
and make sure it runs before fancontrol is started.

Thanks for the feedback. I would love to see fancontrol be enhanced with
the feature to use the hddtemp average or maximum.
I attached a new version making hddtemp use all harddisk instead of a
specified list. (can still be specified) I also moved the calculation of
the avarage temperuture outside the main loop when not running in debug
mode. This should make the shell scrip slightly faster.

The installation document was .txt the script inside was bash both had
different licenses and styles, it is more personal touch. I share a lot
of this stuff, so it is my standard format.

We need support for a floating number not a integer. The average
temperature can become 39.9 degrees. And with your suggestion this would
be rounded in 39, this is not the fan control I need, the shell command
I choice makes the average of 39.9 possible.

The scale of a multiplication is min(a+b,max(scale,a,b)), where a and b
are the scales of the factors. (and 46.5 has a scale of 1, so the above
expression becomes min(0+1,max(0,1,0))=min(1,1)=1. So witouth the /1
part bc returns 46500.0 instead of the needed 46500 for fancontrol.
Adding the /1 over the results makes bc return 46500 and this can be
used by fancontrol (notice the support for the extra precision because
of the earlier use of bc)

I don't see any precession loss. There would be precession loss with the
previous suggestions, maybe I am seeing it wrong :D

True, but I am not going to maintain a starup script, when there is a
useful excising starup script for fan control.
If somebody want they can pick it up and integrate it with fancontrol,
as long I don’t lose temperature precession or the possibility to use
the maximum or average.
With kind regards,

Ok, thanks for the clarification.

You are right ...
