And to me, this sounds like the right direction to go, thermal does not need a back up shutdown solution, it just needs a kernel function call which guarantees the system can be shutdown/reboot immediately. is there any reason that patch 1/2 is not accepted? thanks, rui > > > > > > > > > > Reported-by: Nishanth Menon <nm@xxxxxx> > > > Signed-off-by: Keerthy <j-keerthy@xxxxxx> > > > --- > > > drivers/thermal/Kconfig | 13 +++++++++++++ > > > drivers/thermal/thermal_core.c | 42 > > > ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ > > > 2 files changed, 55 insertions(+) > > > > > > diff --git a/drivers/thermal/Kconfig b/drivers/thermal/Kconfig > > > index 0a16cf4..4cc55f9 100644 > > > --- a/drivers/thermal/Kconfig > > > +++ b/drivers/thermal/Kconfig > > > @@ -15,6 +15,19 @@ menuconfig THERMAL > > > > > > if THERMAL > > > > > > +config THERMAL_EMERGENCY_POWEROFF_DELAY_MS > > > + int "Emergency poweroff delay in milli-seconds" > > > + depends on THERMAL > > > + default 0 > > > + help > > > + The number of milliseconds to delay before emergency > > > + poweroff kicks in.
