[PATCH 1/4] thermal: Add new thermal trend type to support quick cooling

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This modification adds 2 new thermal trend type THERMAL_TREND_RAISE_FULL
and THERMAL_TREND_DROP_FULL. This thermal trend can be used to quickly
jump to the upper or lower cooling level instead of incremental increase
or decrease. This is needed for temperature sensors which support rising/falling
threshold interrupts and polling can be totally avoided.
