Values below 1000 milli-celsius don't make sense and can cause the system to go into a thermal heart attack: the actual temperature will always be lower and thus the system will be throttled down to its lowest setting. An additional problem is that values below 1000 will show as 0 in /proc/acpi/thermal/TZx/trip_points:passive. cat passive 0 echo -n 90 >passive bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument echo -n 90000 >passive cat passive 90000 Signed-off-by: Frans Pop <elendil@planet.nl> Acked-by: Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

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
|
|
|
|
1. thermal sysfs driver interface functions
|
|
|
|
1.1 thermal zone device interface
|
|
1.1.1 struct thermal_zone_device *thermal_zone_device_register(char *name,
|
|
int trips, void *devdata, struct thermal_zone_device_ops *ops)
|
|
|
|
This interface function adds a new thermal zone device (sensor) to
|
|
/sys/class/thermal folder as thermal_zone[0-*]. It tries to bind all the
|
|
thermal cooling devices registered at the same time.
|
|
|
|
name: the thermal zone name.
|
|
trips: the total number of trip points this thermal zone supports.
|
|
devdata: device private data
|
|
ops: thermal zone device call-backs.
|
|
.bind: bind the thermal zone device with a thermal cooling device.
|
|
.unbind: unbind the thermal zone device with a thermal cooling device.
|
|
.get_temp: get the current temperature of the thermal zone.
|
|
.get_mode: get the current mode (user/kernel) of the thermal zone.
|
|
- "kernel" means thermal management is done in kernel.
|
|
- "user" will prevent kernel thermal driver actions upon trip points
|
|
so that user applications can take charge of thermal management.
|
|
.set_mode: set the mode (user/kernel) of the thermal zone.
|
|
.get_trip_type: get the type of certain trip point.
|
|
.get_trip_temp: get the temperature above which the certain trip point
|
|
will be fired.
|
|
|
|
1.1.2 void thermal_zone_device_unregister(struct thermal_zone_device *tz)
|
|
|
|
This interface function removes the thermal zone device.
|
|
It deletes the corresponding entry form /sys/class/thermal folder and
|
|
unbind all the thermal cooling devices it uses.
|
|
|
|
1.2 thermal cooling device interface

|
|
This interface function adds a new thermal cooling device (fan/processor/...)
|
|
to /sys/class/thermal/ folder as cooling_device[0-*]. It tries to bind itself
|
|
to all the thermal zone devices register at the same time.
|
|
name: the cooling device name.
|
|
devdata: device private data.
|
|
ops: thermal cooling devices call-backs.
|
|
.get_max_state: get the Maximum throttle state of the cooling device.
|
|
.get_cur_state: get the Current throttle state of the cooling device.
|
|
.set_cur_state: set the Current throttle state of the cooling device.
|
|
|
|
1.2.2 void thermal_cooling_device_unregister(struct thermal_cooling_device *cdev)
|
|
|
|
This interface function remove the thermal cooling device.
|
|
It deletes the corresponding entry form /sys/class/thermal folder and
|
|
unbind itself from all the thermal zone devices using it.
|
|
|
|
1.3 interface for binding a thermal zone device with a thermal cooling device
|
|
1.3.1 int thermal_zone_bind_cooling_device(struct thermal_zone_device *tz,
|
|
int trip, struct thermal_cooling_device *cdev);
|
|
|
|
This interface function bind a thermal cooling device to the certain trip
|
|
point of a thermal zone device.
|
|
This function is usually called in the thermal zone device .bind callback.
|
|
tz: the thermal zone device
|
|
cdev: thermal cooling device
|
|
trip: indicates which trip point the cooling devices is associated with
|
|
in this thermal zone.

|
|
int trip, struct thermal_cooling_device *cdev);
|
|
|

|
|
trip point of a thermal zone device. This function is usually called in
|
|
the thermal zone device .unbind callback.
|
|
tz: the thermal zone device
|
|
cdev: thermal cooling device
|
|
trip: indicates which trip point the cooling devices is associated with
|
|
in this thermal zone.
|
|
|
|
2. sysfs attributes structure
|
|
|
|
RO read 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:
|
|
/sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone[0-*]:
|
|
|---type: Type of the thermal zone
|
|
|---temp: Current temperature
|
|
|---mode: Working mode of the thermal zone
|
|
|---trip_point_[0-*]_temp: Trip point temperature
|
|
|---trip_point_[0-*]_type: Trip point type
|
|
|
|
Thermal cooling device sys I/F, created once it's registered:
|
|
/sys/class/thermal/cooling_device[0-*]:
|
|
|---type: Type of the cooling device(processor/fan/...)
|
|
|---max_state: Maximum cooling state of the cooling device
|
|
|---cur_state: Current cooling state of the cooling device
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then next two dynamic attributes are created/removed in pairs. They represent
|
|
the relationship between a thermal zone and its associated cooling device.
|
|
They are created/removed for each successful execution of
|
|
thermal_zone_bind_cooling_device/thermal_zone_unbind_cooling_device.
|
|
|
|
/sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone[0-*]:
|
|
|---cdev[0-*]: [0-*]th cooling device in current thermal zone
|
|
|---cdev[0-*]_trip_point: Trip point that cdev[0-*] is associated with
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
/sys/class/hwmon/hwmon[0-*]:
|
|
|---name: The type of the thermal zone devices
|
|
|---temp[1-*]_input: The current temperature of thermal zone [1-*]
|
|
|---temp[1-*]_critical: The critical trip point of thermal zone [1-*]
|
|
|
|

This is given by thermal zone driver as part of registration.
|
|
E.g: "acpitz" indicates it's an ACPI thermal device.

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.
|
|
|
|
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: kernel
|
|
|---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 */
|
|
|---cdev1: --->/sys/class/thermal/cooling_device3
|
|
|---cdev1_trip_point: 2 /* cdev1 can be used for active[0]*/
|
|
|
|
|cooling_device0:
|
|
|---type: Processor
|
|
|---max_state: 8
|
|
|---cur_state: 0
|
|
|
|
|cooling_device3:
|
|
|---type: Fan
|
|
|---max_state: 2
|
|
|---cur_state: 0
|
|
|
|
