Hi Amit Daniel, > Hi Guenter, > > The main idea of this work is to leave the current userspace based > notification scheme and add the kernel based cooling scheme on top of > it. Anyway, It is a good idea to move the file hwmon/exynos4_tmu.c as But, What I feel is, kernel based cooling scheme will work only for Controlling 'CPU' frequency. But in SoC's there are other devices that Contribute to Thermal. For example, GPU, Display, Battery (during charging) etc.. In this case, we need a user space to control these devices. So, in a way, the user space notification mechanism is a unified solution for throttling all devices and keeps the kernel code light weight. I am also curious to know why the existing mechanism did not work for you ?
