System stats

Add warning when system temperature, voltage or averaged CPU exceeds limits.

This would allow users to diagnose some stability issues, especially when running video streaming

Great function! I think we can also integrate the reading of undervoltage and cpu throtteling.

vcgencmd get_throttled
vcgencmd measure_temp
vcgencmd measure_volts core
vcgencmd measure_clock core

The vcgencmd get_throttled output bits are:

Other commands can be integrated, such as reading the gpu or free ram. vcgencmd get_mem arm/gpu

For example this is the dashboard of my Raspberry Pi (Zero 2 W) which controls the 3D printer:

I'd prefer a more generic approach, as Rpanion-server also runs on Jetsons and a few x86 platforms now. Is there a more generic functions we can use?

Hello Stephen, sorry for the delay in replying. You are absolutely right about the compatibility of the feature with all supported platforms. However, I believe it is important to know if the raspberry get throttled.

Yes, that's fine. I'm generally happy to put in small amounts of Pi-specific functionality

lm-sensors is probably the most widely supported way to get hardware monitoring info: https://github.com/lm-sensors/lm-sensors

There may be some kinks with RPi support, but that is (maybe?) solved now, depending on kernel version: https://github.com/lm-sensors/lm-sensors/issues/202
