So it looks like for "pll" and "mem" thermal > zones, we now program trip points whereas we previously didn't. The DT descriptioni (tegra210.dtsi) says one thing and the implementation says something else. If we refer to the PLL description, there is one 'hot' trip point and one 'critical' trip point. No polling delay at all, so we need the interrupts. Logically, we should set the 'hot' trip point first, when the trip point is crossed, we setup the next trip point, which is the critical. With these two trip points, the first one will send a notification to the userspace and the second one will force a shutdown of the system. For both, no cooling device is expected. Well, actually I don't get the logic of the soctherm driver. It should just rely on the thermal framework to set the trip point regardless the cooling devices. The device tree also is strange. For example, the dram sets cooling-device = <&emc 0 0>; an inoperative action for a 'nominal' trip point ... If the goal is to stop the mitigation, that is already done by the governor when the trip point is crossed the way down. The second trip point is an 'active' cooling device but it refers to a emc which is, at the first glance, a passive cooling device. The gpu description only describes hot and critical trip points. The cooling device maps to the 'hot' trip point ! The governor is not used in this case, so the cooling device is inoperative. Same for the cpu thermal zone. IOW, the driver is not correctly implemented and the device tree is wrong. Thermal is not working correctly on these board AFAICT. -- <http://www.linaro.org/> Linaro.org │ Open source software for ARM SoCs Follow Linaro: <http://www.facebook.com/pages/Linaro> Facebook | <http://twitter.com/#!/linaroorg> Twitter | <http://www.linaro.org/linaro-blog/> Blog
