THERMAL_HWMON is implemented inside the thermal_sys driver and has no
effect on drivers implementing thermal zones, so they shouldn't see
anything related to it in . Making the THERMAL_HWMON
implementation fully internal has two advantages beyond the cleaner
design:* This avoids rebuilding all thermal drivers if the THERMAL_HWMON
implementation changes, or if CONFIG_THERMAL_HWMON gets enabled or
disabled.* This avoids breaking the thermal kABI in these cases too, which should
make distributions happy.The only drawback I can see is slightly higher memory fragmentation, as
the number of kzalloc() calls will increase by one per thermal zone. But
I doubt it will be a problem in practice, as I've never seen a system with
more than two thermal zones.Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare

Several ACPI drivers fail to build if CONFIG_NET is unset, because
they refer to things depending on CONFIG_THERMAL that in turn depends
on CONFIG_NET. However, CONFIG_THERMAL doesn't really need to depend
on CONFIG_NET, because the only part of it requiring CONFIG_NET is
the netlink interface in thermal_sys.c.Put the netlink interface in thermal_sys.c under #ifdef CONFIG_NET
and remove the dependency of CONFIG_THERMAL on CONFIG_NET from
drivers/thermal/Kconfig.Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

This patch adds event notification support to the generic
thermal sysfs framework in the kernel. The notification is in the

Due to poor thermal design or Linux driving hardware outside its thermal
envelope, some systems will reach critical temperature and shut down
under high load. This patch adds support for forcing a polling-based
passive trip point if the firmware doesn't provide one. The assumption
is made that the processor is the most practical means to reduce the
dynamic heat generation, so hitting the passive thermal limit will cause
the CPU to be throttled until the temperature stabalises around the
defined value.UI is provided via a "passive" sysfs entry in the thermal zone
directory. It accepts a decimal value in millidegrees celsius, or "0" to
disable the functionality. Default behaviour is for this functionality
to be disabled.Signed-off-by: Matthew Garrett

The ACPI code currently carries its own thermal trip handling, meaning that
any other thermal implementation will need to reimplement it. Move the code
to the generic thermal layer.Signed-off-by: Matthew Garrett

The thermal API currently uses strings to pass values to userspace. This
makes it difficult to use from within the kernel. Change the interface
