TODO

• add an interval mode; log stats to logging widget occasionally
• binding/method to save log to text file
• add vram stats: used / total
• add unit toggle/binding; Ghz can be fairly vague - users may prefer Mhz/Hz
  • tldr: may be wanted for precision
  • driver provides hertz, with modern cards is fairly excessive
  • conversion is done using format_frequency
    • a wrapper of format_size from humanfriendly
    • (currently) defaults to highest sensible unit, changing on scale.
    • often flipping between 500Mhz / 2.6Ghz where consistency may be preferred
• address assumptions on some statistic files
  • Clocks:
    • core/memory assumed provided by freq1_input and freq2_input respectively
    • nearby files named freq*_label can determine this reliably
  • Voltage:
    • similarly, in0_input is the assumed voltage file
    • indicated by in*_label with vddgfx inside
    • no accounting for other voltage files currently; APUs/other cards may differ
• argparse extensions
  • restore --card / -c under argparse
    • to skip amdgpu device detection
    • will expect cardN or renderANNN from /dev/dri/
    • provides the (AMD) GPU intended to be monitored
    • may require card/hwmon detection be separate tasks
  • preferred unit for clocks
