Chapter 14.6: PACKAGE LEVEL THERMAL MANAGEMENT
|
|
|
|
Description
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
This driver register CPU digital temperature package level sensor as a thermal
|
|
zone with maximum two user mode configurable trip points. Number of trip points
|
|
depends on the capability of the package. Once the trip point is violated,
|
|
user mode can receive notification via thermal notification mechanism and can
|
|
take any action to control temperature.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Threshold management
|
|
--------------------
|
|
Each package will register as a thermal zone under /sys/class/thermal.
|
|
Example:
|
|
/sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone1
|
|
|
|
This contains two trip points:
|
|
- trip_point_0_temp
|
|
- trip_point_1_temp
|
|
|
|
User can set any temperature between 0 to TJ-Max temperature. Temperature units
|
|
are in milli-degree Celsius. Refer to "Documentation/thermal/sysfs-api.txt" for
|
|
thermal sys-fs details.
|
|
|
|
Any value other than 0 in these trip points, can trigger thermal notifications.
|
|
Setting 0, stops sending thermal notifications.
|
|
|
|
Thermal notifications: To get kobject-uevent notifications, set the thermal zone
|
|
policy to "user_space". For example: echo -n "user_space" > policy
