Framework 13 To See Fan Target & Fan Temperature Thresholds Support With Linux 7.0 (www.phoronix.com)

For newer Framework devices like the Framework 13 AMD that make use of the ChromeOS Embedded Controller (EC), the upcoming Linux 7.0 kernel is adding fan target support as well as fan temperature threshold handling.

Thomas Weißschuh has been extending the ChromeOS EC driver "cros_ec" for fan target speed on the main fan and fan temperature thresholds across all temperature sensors. The development focus on this has been with the Framework 13 AMD laptop while other Chrome OS EC backed devices can benefit as well where the capabilities exist.

I wish they'd do something about the battery life next, though I'm led to believe that's a problem of the EC itself rather than the OS.
