Exposing subsystem internals to userspace is a bad idea and would limit future improvements of the hardware monitoring subsystem. User space file systems are bad enough and cause all kinds of trouble. I don't want to have to deal with the same kind of issues in the hardware monitoring subsystem. Interested parties should implement kernel hardware monitoring drivers instead. Guenter
