[PATCH v2 3/3] dt-bindings: thermal: Add yaml bindings for thermal zones

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



As part of moving the thermal bindings to YAML, split it up into 3
bindings: thermal sensors, cooling devices and thermal zones.

The thermal-zone binding is a software abstraction to capture the
properties of each zone - how often they should be checked, the
temperature thresholds (trips) at which mitigation actions need to be
taken and the level of mitigation needed at those thresholds.

+description: |
+  Thermal management is achieved in devicetree by describing the sensor hardware
+  and the software abstraction of cooling devices and thermal zones required to
+  take appropriate action to mitigate thermal overloads.
+
+  The following node types are used to completely describe a thermal management
+  system in devicetree:
+   - thermal-sensor: device that measures temperature, has SoC-specific bindings
+   - cooling-device: device used to dissipate heat either passively or actively
+   - thermal-zones: a container of the following node types used to describe all
+     thermal data for the platform
+
+  This binding describes the thermal-zones.
+
+  The polling-delay properties of a thermal-zone are bound to the maximum dT/dt
+  (temperature derivative over time) in two situations for a thermal zone:
+    1. when passive cooling is activated (polling-delay-passive)
+    2. when the zone just needs to be monitored (polling-delay) or when
+       active cooling is activated.
+
+  The maximum dT/dt is highly bound to hardware power consumption and
+  dissipation capability. The delays should be chosen to account for said
+  max dT/dt, such that a device does not cross several trip boundaries
+  unexpectedly between polls. Choosing the right polling delays shall avoid
+  having the device in temperature ranges that may damage the silicon structures
+  and reduce silicon lifetime.

+    description:
+      A /thermal-zones node is required in order to use the thermal framework to

+      mitigate thermal overload conditions. It does not represent a real device
+      in the system, but acts as a container to link thermal sensor devices,
+      platform-data regarding temperature thresholds and the mitigation actions
+      to take when the temperature crosses those thresholds.

+                      There are four valid trip types: active, passive, hot,

+
+                      The critical trip type is used to set the maximum
+                      temperature threshold above which the HW becomes
+                      unstable and underlying firmware might even trigger a

+                      shutdown.
+
+                      The hot trip type can be used to send a notification to
+                      the thermal driver (if a .notify callback is registered).
+                      The action to be taken is left to the driver.
+
+                      The passive trip type can be used to slow down HW e.g. run
+                      the CPU, GPU, bus at a lower frequency.
+
+                      The active trip type can be used to control other HW to
