BTW, IMO, deactiving all the thermal_instances and updating the cooling devices when a thermal zone switches to "userspace" governor is reasonable. thanks, rui > static DEVICE_ATTR(type, 0444, type_show, NULL); > static DEVICE_ATTR(temp, 0444, temp_show, NULL); > static DEVICE_ATTR(mode, 0644, mode_show, mode_store); > static DEVICE_ATTR(passive, S_IRUGO | S_IWUSR, passive_show, passive_store); > +static DEVICE_ATTR(policy, S_IRUGO | S_IWUSR, policy_show, policy_store); > > /* sys I/F for cooling device */ > #define to_cooling_device(_dev) \ > @@ -1512,10 +1543,14 @@ struct thermal_zone_device *thermal_zone_device_register(const char *type, > passive = 1; > } > > - if (!passive) > - result = device_create_file(&tz->device, > - &dev_attr_passive); > + if (!passive) { > + result = device_create_file(&tz->device, &dev_attr_passive); > + if (result) > + goto unregister; > + } > > + /* Create policy attribute */ > + result = device_create_file(&tz->device, &dev_attr_policy); > if (result) > goto unregister; > > @@ -1591,6 +1626,7 @@ void thermal_zone_device_unregister(struct thermal_zone_device *tz) > device_remove_file(&tz->device, &dev_attr_temp); > if (tz->ops->get_mode) > device_remove_file(&tz->device, &dev_attr_mode); > + device_remove_file(&tz->device, &dev_attr_policy); > remove_trip_attrs(tz); > tz->governor = NULL; > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
