https://github.com/intel/dptfxtract - no sources, only proprietary binaries.

The legal status of the extracted tables was discussed a few months ago
with members of the Fedora legal team. You can check archives.

Regardless of the legality of tables output from dptfxtract, that doesn't really address the fact that thermald, as is in Fedora 32 today (version 1.9.1 from December) doesn't have dptfxtract (nor do later versions bundle it) and results in an improvement in thermal behavior on supported systems without any thermal tables in /etc/thermald.
