There are no more callers of thermal_zone_bind_cooling_device() and thermal_zone_unbind_cooling_device(), so drop them along with all of the corresponding headers, code and documentation. Moreover, because the .bind() and .unbind() thermal zone callbacks would only be used when the above functions, respectively, were called, drop them as well along with all of the code related to them.

0. Introduction
|
|
===============
|
|
|
|
The generic thermal sysfs provides a set of interfaces for thermal zone
|
|
devices (sensors) and thermal cooling devices (fan, processor...) to register
|
|
with the thermal management solution and to be a part of it.
|
|
|
|
This how-to focuses on enabling new thermal zone and cooling devices to
|
|
participate in thermal management.
|
|
This solution is platform independent and any type of thermal zone devices
|
|
and cooling devices should be able to make use of the infrastructure.
|
|
|
|
The main task of the thermal sysfs driver is to expose thermal zone attributes
|
|
as well as cooling device attributes to the user space.
|
|
An intelligent thermal management application can make decisions based on
|
|
inputs from thermal zone attributes (the current temperature and trip point
|
|
temperature) and throttle appropriate devices.
|
|
|
|
- `[0-*]` denotes any positive number starting from 0
|
|
- `[1-*]` denotes any positive number starting from 1

|
|
::
|
|
|
|
void thermal_zone_device_unregister(struct thermal_zone_device *tz)
|
|
|
|

|
|
void *data,
|
|
const struct thermal_zone_of_device_ops *ops)
|
|
|
|
This interface adds a new sensor to a DT thermal zone.
|
|
This function will search the list of thermal zones described in
|
|
device tree and look for the zone that refer to the sensor device
|
|
pointed by dev->of_node as temperature providers. For the zone
|
|
pointing to the sensor node, the sensor will be added to the DT
|
|
thermal zone device.
|
|
|
|
The parameters for this interface are:
|
|
|
|
dev:
|
|
Device node of sensor containing valid node pointer in
|
|
dev->of_node.
|
|
sensor_id:
|
|
a sensor identifier, in case the sensor IP has more
|
|
than one sensors
|
|
data:
|
|
a private pointer (owned by the caller) that will be
|
|
passed back, when a temperature reading is needed.
|
|
ops:
|
|
`struct thermal_zone_of_device_ops *`.
|
|
|
|
============== =======================================
|
|
get_temp a pointer to a function that reads the
|
|
sensor temperature. This is mandatory
|
|
callback provided by sensor driver.
|
|
set_trips a pointer to a function that sets a
|
|
temperature window. When this window is
|
|
left the driver must inform the thermal
|
|
core via thermal_zone_device_update.
|
|
get_trend a pointer to a function that reads the
|
|
sensor temperature trend.
|
|
set_emul_temp a pointer to a function that sets
|
|
sensor emulated temperature.
|
|
============== =======================================
|
|
|
|
The thermal zone temperature is provided by the get_temp() function
|
|
pointer of thermal_zone_of_device_ops. When called, it will
|
|
have the private pointer @data back.
|
|
|
|
It returns error pointer if fails otherwise valid thermal zone device
|
|
handle. Caller should check the return handle with IS_ERR() for finding
|
|
whether success or not.

|
|
|
|
void thermal_zone_of_sensor_unregister(struct device *dev,

|
struct thermal_zone_device *tzd)
|
|
|
|
This interface unregisters a sensor from a DT thermal zone which was
|
|
successfully added by interface thermal_zone_of_sensor_register().
|
|
This function removes the sensor callbacks and private data from the
|
|
thermal zone device registered with thermal_zone_of_sensor_register()
|
|
interface. It will also silent the zone by remove the .get_temp() and
|
|
get_trend() thermal zone device callbacks.

|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
struct thermal_zone_device
|
|

|
const struct thermal_zone_of_device_ops *ops)
|
|
|
|
This interface is resource managed version of
|
|
thermal_zone_of_sensor_register().
|
|
|
|
All details of thermal_zone_of_sensor_register() described in
|
|
section 1.1.3 is applicable here.
|
|
|
|
The benefit of using this interface to register sensor is that it
|
|
is not require to explicitly call thermal_zone_of_sensor_unregister()
|
|
in error path or during driver unbinding as this is done by driver
|
|
resource manager.
|
|
|
|
::

void devm_thermal_zone_of_sensor_unregister(struct device *dev,
|
|
struct thermal_zone_device *tzd)
|
|
|
|
This interface is resource managed version of
|
|
thermal_zone_of_sensor_unregister().
|
|
All details of thermal_zone_of_sensor_unregister() described in
|
|
section 1.1.4 is applicable here.
|
|
Normally this function will not need to be called and the resource
|
|
management code will ensure that the resource is freed.
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
int thermal_zone_get_slope(struct thermal_zone_device *tz)
|
|
|
|
This interface is used to read the slope attribute value
|
|
for the thermal zone device, which might be useful for platform
|
|
drivers for temperature calculations.
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
int thermal_zone_get_offset(struct thermal_zone_device *tz)
|

|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
struct thermal_zone_params
|
|
|
|
This structure defines the platform level parameters for a thermal zone.

|
|
Name of the thermal governor used for this zone
|
|
.no_hwmon:
|
|
a boolean to indicate if the thermal to hwmon sysfs interface
|
|
is required. when no_hwmon == false, a hwmon sysfs interface
|
|
will be created. when no_hwmon == true, nothing will be done.
|
|
In case the thermal_zone_params is NULL, the hwmon interface
|
|
will be created (for backward compatibility).
|
|
|
|
2. sysfs attributes structure
|
|
=============================
|
|
|
|
== ================
|
|
RO read only value
|
|
WO write only value
|
|
RW read/write value
|
|
== ================
|
|
|
|
Thermal sysfs attributes will be represented under /sys/class/thermal.
|
|
Hwmon sysfs I/F extension is also available under /sys/class/hwmon
|
|
if hwmon is compiled in or built as a module.
|
|
|
|
Thermal zone device sys I/F, created once it's registered::
|
|

|---emul_temp: Emulated temperature set node
|
|
|---sustainable_power: Sustainable dissipatable power

the relationship between a thermal zone and its associated cooling device.
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
/sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone[0-*]:

|
|

|
Besides the thermal zone device sysfs I/F and cooling device sysfs I/F,
|
|
the generic thermal driver also creates a hwmon sysfs I/F for each _type_
|
|
of thermal zone device. E.g. the generic thermal driver registers one hwmon
|
|
class device and build the associated hwmon sysfs I/F for all the registered
|
|
ACPI thermal zones.
|
|
|
|
Please read Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-class-thermal for thermal
|
|
zone and cooling device attribute details.

|
|
|
|
Please read Documentation/hwmon/sysfs-interface.rst for additional information.
|
|
|
|
3. A simple implementation
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
ACPI thermal zone may support multiple trip points like critical, hot,
|
|
passive, active. If an ACPI thermal zone supports critical, passive,
|
|
active[0] and active[1] at the same time, it may register itself as a
|
|
thermal_zone_device (thermal_zone1) with 4 trip points in all.
|
|
It has one processor and one fan, which are both registered as
|
|
thermal_cooling_device. Both are considered to have the same
|
|
effectiveness in cooling the thermal zone.
|
|
|
|
If the processor is listed in _PSL method, and the fan is listed in _AL0
|
|
method, the sys I/F structure will be built like this::
|
|
|
|
/sys/class/thermal:
|
|
|thermal_zone1:
|
|
|---type: acpitz
|
|
|---temp: 37000
|
|
|---mode: enabled
|
|
|---policy: step_wise
|
|
|---available_policies: step_wise fair_share
|
|
|---trip_point_0_temp: 100000
|
|
|---trip_point_0_type: critical
|
|
|---trip_point_1_temp: 80000
|
|
|---trip_point_1_type: passive
|
|
|---trip_point_2_temp: 70000
|
|
|---trip_point_2_type: active0
|
|
|---trip_point_3_temp: 60000
|
|
|---trip_point_3_type: active1
|
|
|---cdev0: --->/sys/class/thermal/cooling_device0
|
|
|---cdev0_trip_point: 1 /* cdev0 can be used for passive */
|
|
|---cdev0_weight: 1024
|
|
|---cdev1: --->/sys/class/thermal/cooling_device3
|
|
|---cdev1_trip_point: 2 /* cdev1 can be used for active[0]*/
|
|
|---cdev1_weight: 1024
|
|
|
|
|cooling_device0:
|
|
|---type: Processor
|
|
|---max_state: 8
|
|
|---cur_state: 0
|
|
|
|
|cooling_device3:
|
|
|---type: Fan
|
|
|---max_state: 2
|
|
|---cur_state: 0
|
|
|
|
/sys/class/hwmon:
|
|
|hwmon0:
|
|
|---name: acpitz
|
|
|---temp1_input: 37000
|
|
|---temp1_crit: 100000
|
|
|
|
4. Export Symbol APIs
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
4.1. get_tz_trend
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
This function returns the trend of a thermal zone, i.e the rate of change
|
|
of temperature of the thermal zone. Ideally, the thermal sensor drivers
|
|
are supposed to implement the callback. If they don't, the thermal
|
|
framework calculated the trend by comparing the previous and the current
|
|
temperature values.
|
|
|
|
4.2. thermal_cdev_update
|
|
------------------------
|
|
|
|
This function serves as an arbitrator to set the state of a cooling
|
|
device. It sets the cooling device to the deepest cooling state if
|
|
possible.
|
|
|
|
5. thermal_emergency_poweroff
|
|
=============================
|
|
|
|
On an event of critical trip temperature crossing the thermal framework
|
|
shuts down the system by calling hw_protection_shutdown(). The
|
|
hw_protection_shutdown() first attempts to perform an orderly shutdown
|
|
but accepts a delay after which it proceeds doing a forced power-off
|
|
or as last resort an emergency_restart.
|
|
|
|
The delay should be carefully profiled so as to give adequate time for
|
|
orderly poweroff.
|
|
|
|
If the delay is set to 0 emergency poweroff will not be supported. So a
|
|
carefully profiled non-zero positive value is a must for emergency
|
|
poweroff to be triggered.
|
