Hi Amit, I'm not sure that using the trip index for setting the state of a cooling device is a generic solution because you are adding a dependency between the trip index and the cooling device state that might be difficult to handle. This dependency implies that a cooling device like cpufreq_cooling_device must be registered in the 1st trips of a thermal_zone which is not possible when we want to register 2 cpufreq_cooling_devices in the same thermal_zone. You should only rely on the current and last temperatures to detect if a trip_temp has been crossed and you should increase or decrease the current state of the cooling device accordingly. something like below should work with cpufreq_cooling_device and will not add any constraint on the trip index. The state of a cooling device is increased/decreased once for each trip + case THERMAL_TRIP_STATE_ACTIVE: + list_for_each_entry(instance, &tz->cooling_devices, + node) { + if (instance->trip != count) + continue; + + cdev = instance->cdev; + + if ((temp >= trip_temp) + && (trip_temp > tz->last_temperature)) { + cdev->ops->get_max_state(cdev, + &max_state); + cdev->ops->get_cur_state(cdev, + ¤t_state); + if (++current_state <= max_state) + cdev->ops->set_cur_state(cdev, + current_state); + } + else if ((temp < trip_temp) + && (trip_temp <= tz->last_temperature)) { + cdev->ops->get_cur_state(cdev, + ¤t_state); + if (current_state > 0) + cdev->ops->set_cur_state(cdev, + --current_state); + } + break; Regards, Vincent On 13 December 2011 16:13, Amit Daniel Kachhap <amit.kachhap@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > This patch adds a new trip type THERMAL_TRIP_STATE_ACTIVE.
