attached the tmp102 to thermal zone, i am able to read the thermal_zone_get_temp, tz_dev->ops->get_trip_temp, get_trip_hyst. the trip point of temperature and hystersis values does not get updated in hwmon/hwmon1/temp1_max_hyst and hwmon/hwmon1/temp1_max. Do we need to manually set these values, though we are attaching the tmp102 to thermal_zone? otherwise will not get the interrupt. please suggest. &thermal_zones { hdmi-thermal { polling-delay-passive = <250>; polling-delay = <1000>; thermal-sensors = <&temp_sensor_u49 0>; trips { hdmi_alert: trip0 { temperature = <75000>; hysteresis = <2000>; type = "passive"; }; hdmi_crit: trip1 { temperature = <95000>; hysteresis = <2000>; type = "critical"; }; }; }; }; On Fri, Feb 22, 2019 at 1:19 AM Guenter Roeck <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > On Fri, Feb 22, 2019 at 12:32:08AM +0530, Vinay Simha B N wrote: > > On Fri, Feb 22, 2019 at 12:18 AM Guenter Roeck <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > > > > > On Thu, Feb 21, 2019 at 11:46:32PM +0530, Vinay Simha B N wrote: > > > > guenter, > > > > > > > > i want to use these three tmp102 temp1_input, max and max_hys in > > > > dsi2hdmi(adv7533) driver to enable or disabled based on temperature > > > > range. > > > > > > > > https://github.com/vinaysimha/kernel-msm/commit/8ee2b9104fa56765320d4846086d91b8271f5609 > > > > > > > > dsi2hdmi operating temperature range is -10 to 85 deg C, we will > > > > enable dsi2hdmi only when temperate in operating range otherwise will > > > > disable the chip. > > > > > > > Do you envision a system utilizing this chip that would have an operating range > > > outsize -10 .. +85 degrees C ?
