Thermal zones without trip point are not registered by thermal core.
tzts1 ~ tzts6 zones of mt8183 were intially introduced for test-purpose
only.
Disable the zones above and keep only cpu_thermal enabled.
It does not make sense to disable the thermal zones. Either the thermal zones are needed or they are not. Keeping them for debug purpose is not desired.
As Matthias Brugger mentioned in previous versions, DTS should describe the HW as it is, the sensors are in the HW.
Alternatively to removal, you can:
- remove 'sustainable-power'
- add a passive trip point, optionally a hot trip point and a critical trip point
Why removing "sustainable-power" instead of simply disabling the device ? Especially that, if a user needs to use the sensor
in the future, they might not be able to find the right sustainable-power ; thus I think it should remain the way it is.
As to adding tripping points, MediaTek does not have ones to add for now for those sensors.
Regards,
Amjad
The passive trip point will allow the userspace to set a value in order to get notified about the devices temperature (writable trip point). The hot temperature will send a notification to userspace so it can take a last chance decision to drop the temperature before the critical temperature.
The passive trip point temperature could be a high temperature.
The mitigation is also managed from userspace as a whole.
