Feature Request: support for Intel Arc GPUs

[Lukas-Heiligenbrunner]

It would be great if Resources supports Intel Arc GPUs.

My research showed that the gpu utilization seems not to get exposed in the Linux /sys/.../gpu1 structure.
One might have a look how intel_gpu_top works and gets the gpu load and rebuild something similar in Rust or use this as a ffi lib?

Thanks for your great work!

Edit:
Resources that might help:

Hi, thank you. :)
Intel unfortunately doesn't use GPU stats the same way AMD does using hwmon, they've reportedly started working on this, but so far it doesn't seem to be there and intel_gpu_top unfortunately requires root access, but I'll see what I can do.

A similar system monitor, Mission Center, added support for Intel GPUs in this commit. Does that help, or are the two projects too different?

Resources should be able to get more stats from Intel GPUs with version 1.3. I'm not sure when it will be released — I'd love to get memory usage under control before — but you can try it out right now if you want to build Resources yourself.

I think mission center uses nvtop as a backend to check intel gpu usage , decode and encode.
is there a way to implement the same utility in resources ?

Resources will be able to get more stats from Intel GPUs with version 1.3. I hope I can release it to Flathub today. Please tell me right away if something is missing when 1.3 lands as I don't have an Intel GPU to test with.

okay i will .

-video memory usage
-power usage
-temperature
-current power cap
-max power cap
all those metrics are missing , using an integrated intel gpu 8th gen : broadwell

Do you mind installing nvtop and send a screenshot of it running?

It seems to be a limitation of the Intel driver then, sorry about that. :/

Yeah , fantastic app though . i wish it had a round app icon similar to the icon theme i have
