  • Commit 39d99cff76bf ("thermal: cpu_cooling: introduce
    of_cpufreq_cooling_register") taught the cpu cooling device to register
    devices that were linked to the device tree but didn't update the
    cpu-cooling-api documentation. Fix it.

  • When registering a thermal zone device using platform information
    via bind_params, the thermal framework will always perform the
    cdev binding using the lowest and highest limits (THERMAL_NO_LIMIT).

    This patch changes the data structures so that it is possible
    to inform what are the desired limits for each trip point
    inside a bind_param. The way the binding is performed is also
    changed so that it uses the new data structure.

  • When registering a new thermal_device, the thermal framework
    will always add a hwmon sysfs interface.

    This patch adds a flag to make this behavior optional. Now
    when registering a new thermal device, the caller can
    optionally inform if hwmon interface is desirable. This can
    be done by means of passing a thermal_zone_params.no_hwmon == true.

    In order to keep same behavior as of today, all current
    calls will by default create the hwmon interface.

    "There are not too many changes this time, except two new platform
    thermal drivers, ti-soc-thermal driver and x86_pkg_temp_thermal
    driver, and a couple of small fixes.

    Highlights:

    - move the ti-soc-thermal driver out of the staging tree to the
    thermal tree.

    - introduce the x86_pkg_temp_thermal driver. This driver registers
    CPU digital temperature package level sensor as a thermal zone.

    - small fixes/cleanups including removing redundant use of
    platform_set_drvdata() and of_match_ptr for all platform thermal
    drivers"

  • The thermal governors are part of the thermal framework,
    rather than a seperate feature/module.
    Because the generic thermal layer can not work without
    thermal governors, and it must load the thermal governors
    during its initialization.

    Build them into one module in this patch.

    This also fix a problem that the generic thermal layer does not
    work when CONFIG_THERMAL=m and CONFIG_THERMAL_GOV_XXX=y.

  • This removes the driver specific sysfs support of the temperature
    emulation and uses the newly added core thermal framework for thermal
    emulation. An exynos platform specific handler is added to support this.

    In this patch, the exynos senor(tmu) related code and exynos framework
    related (thermal zone, cooling devices) code are intentionally kept separate.
    So an emulated function pointer is passed from sensor to framework. This is
    beneficial in adding more sensor support using the same framework code
    which is an ongoing work. The goal is to finally split them totally. Even
    the existing read_temperature also follows the same execution method.

  • This patch adds support to set the emulated temperature method in
    thermal zone (sensor). After setting this feature thermal zone may
    report this temperature and not the actual temperature. The emulation
    implementation may be based on sensor capability through platform
    specific handler or pure software emulation if no platform handler defined.

    This is useful in debugging different temperature threshold and its
    associated cooling action. Critical threshold's cannot be emulated.
    Writing 0 on this node should disable emulation.

  • Intel PowerClamp driver performs synchronized idle injection across
    all online CPUs. The goal is to maintain a given package level C-state
    ratio.

    Compared to other throttling methods already exist in the kernel,
    such as ACPI PAD (taking CPUs offline) and clock modulation, this is often
    more efficient in terms of performance per watt.

  • This patchset introduces a new generic cooling device based on cpufreq
    that can be used on non-ACPI platforms. As a proof of concept, we have
    drivers for the following platforms using this mechanism now:

    * Samsung Exynos (Exynos4 and Exynos5) in the current patchset.
    * Freescale i.MX (git://git.linaro.org/people/amitdanielk/linux.git imx6q_thermal)

    There is a small change in cpufreq cooling registration APIs, so a minor
    change is needed for Freescale platforms.

    Brief Description:

    1) The generic cooling devices code is placed inside driver/thermal/*
    as placing inside acpi folder will need un-necessary enabling of acpi
    code. This code is architecture independent.

    2) This patchset adds generic cpu cooling low level implementation
    through frequency clipping. In future, other cpu related cooling
    devices may be added here. An ACPI version of this already exists
    (drivers/acpi/processor_thermal.c) .But this will be useful for
    platforms like ARM using the generic thermal interface along with the
    generic cpu cooling devices. The cooling device registration API's
    return cooling device pointers which can be easily binded with the
    thermal zone trip points. The important APIs exposed are,

    a) struct thermal_cooling_device *cpufreq_cooling_register(
    struct cpumask *clip_cpus)
    b) void cpufreq_cooling_unregister(struct thermal_cooling_device *cdev)

    3) Samsung exynos platform thermal implementation is done using the
    generic cpu cooling APIs and the new trip type. The temperature sensor
    driver present in the hwmon folder(registered as hwmon driver) is moved
    to thermal folder and registered as a thermal driver.
