'Macmini6,1', 'Apple SMC Mac Mini 6,1 (Late 2012)',ĪSMC_MM52_TEMPS, ASMC_MM52_TEMPNAMES, ASMC_MM52_TEMPDESCS So I added this to /usr/src/sys/dev/asmc/asmc.c: /* Line ~304 : Patch for Macmini 6,1 */ This specific Mac Mini version is theoretically not supported, but just copying and adding to asmc.c the config for the last supported model (5,2) did the trick. This is just to document that I was able to compile and load an asmc.ko module for a Mac Mini 6,1. But I searched for 'Mac Mini smc fan control' and this thread came up as one of the first ones. But this was kind of defeating the purpose of using pfsense for me, since I was trying to move away from arch Linux for the sake of stability. Īlthough it does seem according to this that the asmc module does support my mac mini here, but it is in a later version of the kernel, so I could back port the asmc.h and asmc.c changes, build the kernel and it should work. Unfortunately I found that my version of the Mac Mini is not supported by the kernel module, and I'd have to update the C header and class files (asmc.c and asmc.h) and build my own version of the 11.3 kernel just to get the kernal module to function. Extracted the asmc.ko file from the iso, and ran kldload. I went downloaded free BSD 11.3, that's the version of free BSD iso you need to download as the current stable version of pfsense uses that kernel, hence your error above). Ok, I thought I'd let you guys know where I got to, Ipmitool-1.8.18_2 CLI to manage IPMI kldstat | grep it looks like I am missing the ipmi.ko module. I have the sysctl -a | grep -i pkg info | grep ipmi So, since I have the 2011 Mac Mini server, I was thinking I should have a motherboard or logic board management controller and checked whether I have the ipmi-tool. Ipmitool-1.8.17_1 CLI to manage IPMI systems ipmitool sensor | grep -i fan | cut -f1-4 -d'|' while researching, I found this:Ĥ 1 0xffffffff81cc1000 113b0 ipmi.ko pkg info | grep ipmi can you share more like a link to how Okay, understand what you're saying. Yeah, import the kernel module from an equivalent FreeBSD iso. Sysctl: unknown oid said in Apple smc fan control: I also ran the command and I got the sysctl dev.asmc -a | grep -i asmc Will I have to compile my own kernal/kernal module to use this functionality? However, this does not appear in the release build. This does appear to be available in the pfsense freeBSD src ->. This setup is working really well apart from one issue, the os doesn't appear to have the kernal module for apple's smc fan control.

I have setup an older macmini (5,1) as a gateway using pfsense, one ethernet port using the onboard broadcom the other a thunderbolt to ethernet adapter.
