When I tried to install an agama build driver, I found that the clinfo -l could get the gpu device but xpu-smi discovery can't find it.
The root cause is that the hwmon file changed.
# Only exists:
/sys/class/hwmon/hwmon3/energy2_input
# Does NOT exist (xpu-smi looks for this):
/sys/class/hwmon/hwmon3/energy1_input
So the return value is empty. I did the change like this and the issue is fixed. Not very sure this is the right fix, but put here as a reference:
