## GDDR6/GDDR6X GPU Memory Temperature Reader for Linux
|
|
|
|
Reads GDDR6/GDDR6X VRAM memory temperatures from multiple supported NVIDIA GPUs found in a host Linux system.
|
|
These findings are based on reverse engineering of the NVIDIA GPU Linux driver.
|
|
|
|
### Experimental: RTX 5090 (GDDR7)
|
|
|
|
Experimental support for the RTX 5090 (Blackwell / GB202, GDDR7) is included. It reads the per-module
|
|
DRAM sensors directly and reports the hotspot (hottest module) by default:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
sudo gddr6 # VRAM hotspot temperature
|
|
sudo gddr6 --per-module # each of the 8 GDDR7 modules separately
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This is reverse-engineered and unofficial (NVIDIA does not expose memory temperature via nvidia-smi/NVML
|
|
on this card) — treat the readings as approximate.
|
|
|
|
For a dedicated Blackwell app with a TUI (plus ASCII/JSON output) and a reusable C library, see

|
## Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
- Kernel boot parameter: iomem=relaxed
|
|
|
|
This step is optional. In some Linux distributions, the default kernel boot parameters are sufficient to run this program.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
sudo vim /etc/default/grub
|
|
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash iomem=relaxed"
|
|
sudo update-grub
|
|
sudo reboot
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- Disabling Secure Boot
|
|
|
|
This can be done in the UEFI/BIOS configuration or using [mokutil](https://wiki.debian.org/SecureBoot#Disabling.2Fre-enabling_Secure_Boot):
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
mokutil --disable-validation
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Check state with:
|
|
```
|
|
$ sudo mokutil --sb
|
|
SecureBoot disabled
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Dependencies
|
|
- libpci-dev
|
|
```
|
|
sudo apt install libpci-dev -y
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Installation (cmake)
|
|
```
|
|
git clone https://github.com/olealgoritme/gddr6
|
|
cd gddr6
|
|
./build_install.sh
|
|
sudo gddr6
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
