This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled hwmon: (mlxreg-fan) Return non-zero value when fan current state is enforced from sysfs to the 5.4-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: hwmon-mlxreg-fan-return-non-zero-value-when-fan-curr.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 33566a415758f3162ac396a0cbfed13afe5aff02 Author: Vadim Pasternak <vadimp@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Sep 16 21:31:51 2021 +0300 hwmon: (mlxreg-fan) Return non-zero value when fan current state is enforced from sysfs [ Upstream commit e6fab7af6ba1bc77c78713a83876f60ca7a4a064 ] Fan speed minimum can be enforced from sysfs. For example, setting current fan speed to 20 is used to enforce fan speed to be at 100% speed, 19 - to be not below 90% speed, etcetera. This feature provides ability to limit fan speed according to some system wise considerations, like absence of some replaceable units or high system ambient temperature. Request for changing fan minimum speed is configuration request and can be set only through 'sysfs' write procedure. In this situation value of argument 'state' is above nominal fan speed maximum. Return non-zero code in this case to avoid thermal_cooling_device_stats_update() call, because in this case statistics update violates thermal statistics table range. The issues is observed in case kernel is configured with option CONFIG_THERMAL_STATISTICS.
