Getting jedec_dimm to work

Hi hackers mailing list,

 

I'm playing around with jedec_dimm to pick up my memory modules so I can
monitor temperature and read information from the SPD.

Although I'm kind of stuck at the point where I am as there really should
not be anything more to it.

ATM I load the module through kld_list in rc.conf and have the following in
my device.hints as suggested in the man pages:

 

hint.jedec_dimm.0.at="smbus0"

hint.jedec_dimm.0.addr="0xa0"

hint.jedec_dimm.1.at="smbus0"

hint.jedec_dimm.1.addr="0xa2"

hint.jedec_dimm.2.at="smbus0"

hint.jedec_dimm.2.addr="0xa4"

hint.jedec_dimm.3.at="smbus0"

hint.jedec_dimm.3.addr="0xa6"

hint.jedec_dimm.4.at="smbus0"

hint.jedec_dimm.4.addr="0xa8"

hint.jedec_dimm.5.at="smbus0"

hint.jedec_dimm.5.addr="0xaA"

hint.jedec_dimm.6.at="smbus0"

hint.jedec_dimm.6.addr="0xaC"

hint.jedec_dimm.7.at="smbus0"

hint.jedec_dimm.7.addr="0xaE"

 

Although when rebooting nothing gets detected/reported or printed on the
console.

Is it possible that it does not work through kld_list or should it not
matter, if so why is that? Just curious =)

 

Thanks for any pointers, Dries.
