Are you on x86 processor ? with stock kernel ?
Yes, and sorry for the late reply. I had forgotten I opened this, and then rediscovered the issue tonight, and came here to report it π
This is on a clean install of Arch from just a few days ago, with zftop Installed from the AUR.
Maybe this is a quirk of multi-CPU setups?
I think it depend on hwmon driver that u cpu uses.
Try to test this branch https://github.com/ssleert/zfxtop/tree/hwmn-name-fix. And if it works, i merge it in master/
After some exploring online, it appears this is a power meter, and might be an HPE specific thing? Or at least there were lots of results about ProLiant owners seeing (harmless?) errors related to this, and them just blacklisting acpi_power_meter
.. but this appears to only have been common for a few periods where there were other dependent modules that were never getting loaded.
On my system, my power meter was providing an average power usage value.
I did rmmod it, and my hwmon6 went away entirely.
But it might be desirable to mitigate an outright failure in zfxtop if it fails to find a value like this.
Ah! And as I type this, I see that you just replied with a change! I'll give it a shot now and will report back.

It wasn't working, but after playing around with some stuff, I got it going! I'm far from a golang expert, but I've opened a PR to your branch, if you are interested https://github.com/ssleert/zfxtop/pull/20
i merged it, but my math teacher scolded me for being distracted from class)
Thank you for your time, and dedication. Maybe this will pass.
Installed on Arch from AUR. It just crashes as soon as I try to run it.
