Note that this machine is running a modified version of the FC7 2.6.22
kernel. One of the modifications involved making the ipmisensors module
run under Linux 2.6.22 (properly)!

Your fix is probably incomplete: I guess that the high limits should be
~80 and ~70 degrees C, and the hyst limits (which appear to really be
low limits, not hysteresis) presumably -128 degrees C. So the limits
magnitudes are wrong too.

Not correct, sorry. The temperature magnitude is standardized to 3 for
all drivers in Linux 2.6 (see Documentation/hwmon/sysfs-interface). If
you had to change it to 2 here, it means that the bmcsensors driver
itself does not respect the standard. The bmcsensors driver needs to be
fixed, not libsensors.
Or rather, libsensors needs to be fixed for all the other temperature
channels, to use the standard magnitude of 3 instead of 2.
Yani, looking at the patch which introduced this bug:
http://www.lm-sensors.org/changeset/2888
I have too comments:
* in2 and in3 both map to in2_input, and after that all the voltage
channels are shifted by one. I assume this is a bug? Or were you trying
to compensate for voltages channels starting at 0 instead of 1?
* Everything in this patch (except the bugs) only duplicates the
default mappings libsensors uses to convert Linux 2.4 symbols into
Linux 2.6 sysfs file names. So I believe that the patch was simply not
needed. As a matter of fact, the min and max limit symbols were left
untouched, and work fine. Can you please comment on this? I plan to
revert this changeset.

Jean,
Taking on board your comments and looking more closely at the output of
the sensors command I can see that the values returned to userland from
the kernel should indeed be x1000 (magnitude 3) and not x100 (mag 2)!

I'm using ipmisensors, not the older (and ?obsolete?) bmcsensors but the

This shifting bug is caused by the asynchronous nature of the IPMI
message passing i/f. The ipmidriver as originally coded simply fired
off multiple GET requests without waiting for a reply. It saved the
pointer to the last SDR object for which a request was issued in the bmc
object, overwriting any previous value. In my case, the 2nd GET was
issued before the response to the 1st GET arrived back resulting in an
incorrect value being set for the 2nd sensor and everything being
shifted by one. Only the last sensor was correct. I've developed a
patch to fix this behaviour.
I've also adjusted the SDR list creation to do a list_add_tail() rather
than list_add(). This ensures that the SDR list is in ascending order
of SDR number!
The "disconnect" between the kernel driver exporting the sensors data
via /sys/... and the usermode code needs to be eliminated. The 'spec'
does indeed state that TEMP and VOLT values are in milli<xxx> units so
the change to ipmisensors in decplaces() that returns 2 for TEMP
readings is incorrect and needs to be reverted to it's previous value of 3.
I've attached a (partial) patch which shows the changes I made to fix
the usage of the current_sdr pointer. It also reverts the change in
decplaces() that returned 2 for TEMP sensors instead of 3.
Of course along with these changes, lib/chips.c needs to be changed to
make ALL of the bmc/ipmi temp sensor values magnitude 3.
