    Can you get Intel iGPU temperature readings?

    For whatever reason I can't get a temperature reading from Intel iGPU with any kernel I use. Using lm-sensors I can only get acpitz-virtual-0 and coretemp-isa-0000 (plus some other sensors not related to Intel platform).
    Code:
    acpitz-virtual-0
    
    Adapter: Virtual device
    temp1:        +27.8°C  (crit = +105.0°C)         # appears to be PCH/SB
    temp2:        +29.8°C  (crit = +105.0°C)         # some other sensor on the mobo
    
    # some non-Intel devices
    
    coretemp-isa-0000
    Adapter: ISA adapter
    Physical id 0:  +34.0°C  (high = +80.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)    # CPU socket?
    Core 0:         +32.0°C  (high = +80.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)    # CPU cores
    Core 1:         +31.0°C  (high = +80.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)
    I did answer yes to everything from sensor-detect before calling sensors. The results are similar with different hardware, distros and kernels.

    I'm sure lm-sensors could show Intel iGPU temperature sometime before and there are forum posts showing it being successful at this. Am I doing anything wrong? If you have a Intel system with iGPU, does lm-sensors show anything about it?

    I use gpuz to collect temp readings from the igpu.
