>From 2e678ef60a7926daa9217ac7eaedea33043f2e35 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 16 Apr 2013 13:54:27 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] ACPI thermal: do not always return THERMAL_TREND_RAISING for active trip points Commit 4ae46befb49d4173122e0afa995c4e93d01948a2 introduces a regression that the fan is always on even if the system is in idle state. My original idea in that commit is that: when the current temperature is above the trip point, keep the fan on, even if the temperature is dropping. when the current temperature is below the trip point, turn on the fan when the temperature is raising, turn off the fan when the temperature is dropping. But this is what the code actually does: when the current temperature is above the trip point, the fan keeps on. when the current temperature is below the trip point, the fan is always on because thermal_get_trend() in driver/acpi/thermal.c returns THERMAL_TREND_RAISING. Thus the fan keeps running even if the system is idle. Fix this in drivers/acpi/thermal.c. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56591 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56601 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=50041#c45 Signed-off-by: Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@xxxxxxxxx> Tested-by: Matthias <morpheusxyz123@xxxxxxxx> Tested-by: Ville Syrjälä <syrjala@xxxxxx> --- drivers/acpi/thermal.c | 15 ++++++++++++--- 1 file changed, 12 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/acpi/thermal.c b/drivers/acpi/thermal.c index 8470771..b846ce0 100644 --- a/drivers/acpi/thermal.c +++ b/drivers/acpi/thermal.c @@ -723,9 +723,18 @@ static int thermal_get_trend(struct thermal_zone_device *thermal, return -EINVAL; if (type == THERMAL_TRIP_ACTIVE) { - /* aggressive active cooling */ - *trend = THERMAL_TREND_RAISING; - return 0; + unsigned long trip_temp; + unsigned long temp = KELVIN_TO_MILLICELSIUS(tz->temperature, + tz->kelvin_offset); + if (thermal_get_trip_temp(thermal, trip, &trip_temp)) + return -EINVAL; + + if (temp > trip_temp) { + *trend = THERMAL_TREND_RAISING; + return 0; + } else + /* Fall back on default trend */ + return -EINVAL; } /* -- 1.7.9.5 -- 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
