Filed a bug report as per question: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/662421
I'm trying to run lm_sensors on my brand new motherboard (Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd. Z370 AORUS Ultra Gaming-CF) using the Z370 chipset, and according to the author/maintainer of lm_sensors/it87 driver, fan controls would be supported by chip it8686.
Currently such chip is supported only in it87 version https://github.com/groeck/it87; unfortunately both Ubuntu's net LTS Bionic and Torvalds' repositories have got an outdated version of this driver (and possible lm_sensors itself):
* http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git/ubuntu/ubuntu-bionic.git/tree/drivers/hwmon/it87.c
* https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/drivers/hwmon/it87.c
Can you please update Bionic (at least) to feature this updated driver?
Controlling fans speed and other motherboard parameters would be great, especially on new hardware.
Thanks!

Summary: Thermal sensors are not accessible due to being unsupported by the it87.ko module in linux-image-extra which does not include the it8686 model line among others..
Expected behavior:
$ journalctl | grep it87:
Apr 20 21:36:00 lakshmi kernel: it87: it87 driver version v1.0-38-g948ad8d
Apr 20 21:36:00 lakshmi kernel: it87: Found IT8686E chip at 0xa40, revision 2

summary |
Driver it87 and lm_sensors are too old and don't support newer chipsets (such as Z370). |
The it87.ko driver is too old and does not support newer chipsets (such as Z370). |
