I believe now we need to align on thermal bindings, before I propose
next version of this series. So, following the discussions on this
thread, I believe a typical CPU thermal zone would look like the following:
+ #include <dt-bindings/thermal/thermal.h>
+
+ cpu_thermal: cpu_thermal {
+ passive-delay = <250>; /* milliseconds */
+ polling-delay = <1000>; /* milliseconds */
+ /*
+ * sensor ID
+ */
+ sensors = <&bandgap0 0>;
+ /*
+ * cooling
+ * device Usage Trip lower
bound upper bound
+ */
+ cooling-devices = <&cpu0 100 &cpu-alert
THERMAL_NO_LIMITS THERMAL_NO_LIMITS>;
+ trips {
+ cpu-alert: cpu-alert {
+ temperature = <100000>; /* milliCelsius */
+ hysteresis = <2000>; /* milliCelsius */
+ type = <THERMAL_TRIP_PASSIVE>;
+ };
+ cpu-crit: cpu-crit {
+ temperature = <125000>; /* milliCelsius */
+ hysteresis = <2000>; /* milliCelsius */
+ type = <THERMAL_TRIP_CRITICAL>;
+ };
+ };
+ };
*Note: THERMAL_NO_LIMIT means, it will be using the cooling device
minimum and maximum limits.
Couple of comments.
1. I am keeping the pooling intervals. A possible alternative way to
describe that would be specifying the maximum dT/dt. Essentially because
I am still convinced that this is part of hw specs.
2. The above follows your suggestion to use consumer pointing to
producers. Although, I still need to figure out how this could be
implemented for Linux. But I think that is another story, at least for
now. We need to first align on the DT binding itself.
3. The link from cooling device specification to trip points, from my
perspective, should be enough, and thus we shall not need the thermal
cells and size for trip points, as you proposed. Let me know what you think.
Below is another example, on a more complex scenario, board specific
case (hypothetical, just for exemplification):
+ #include <dt-bindings/thermal/thermal.h>
+
+ board_thermal: board_thermal {
+ passive-delay = <1000>; /* milliseconds */
+ polling-delay = <2500>; /* milliseconds */
+ /*
+ * sensor ID
+ */
+ sensors = <&adc-dummy 0>,
+ <&adc-dummy 1>,
+ <&adc-dymmy 2>;
+ /*
+ * cooling
+ * device Usage Trip lower upper
+ */
+ cooling-devices = <&cpu0 75 &cpu-trip 0 2>,
+ <&gpu0 40 &gpu-trip 0 2>;
+ <&lcd0 25 &lcd-trip 5 10>;
+ trips {
+ cpu-trip: cpu-trip {
+ temperature = <60000>; /* milliCelsius */
+ hysteresis = <2000>; /* milliCelsius */
+ type = <THERMAL_TRIP_PASSIVE>;
+ };
+ gpu-trip: gpu-trip {
+ temperature = <55000>; /* milliCelsius */
+ hysteresis = <2000>; /* milliCelsius */
+ type = <THERMAL_TRIP_PASSIVE>;
+ }
+ lcd-trip: lcp-trip {
+ temperature = <53000>; /* milliCelsius */
+ hysteresis = <2000>; /* milliCelsius */
+ type = <THERMAL_TRIP_PASSIVE>;
+ };
+ crit-trip: crit-trip {
+ temperature = <68000>; /* milliCelsius */
+ hysteresis = <2000>; /* milliCelsius */
+ type = <THERMAL_TRIP_CRITICAL>;
+ };
+ };
+ };
Now writing the above example, one might want to have a way to say the
sensor correlation equation.
Another example:
+ #include <dt-bindings/thermal/thermal.h>
+
+ dsp_thermal: dsp_thermal {
+ passive-delay = <250>; /* milliseconds */
+ polling-delay = <1000>; /* milliseconds */
+ /*
+ * sensor ID
+ */
+ sensors = <&bandgap0 1>;
+ /*
+ * cooling
+ * device Usage Trip lower
bound upper bound
+ */
+ cooling-devices = <&dsp0 100 &dsp-alert
THERMAL_NO_LIMIT THERMAL_NO_LIMIT>;
+ trips {
+ dsp-alert: dsp-alert {
+ temperature = <100000>; /* milliCelsius */
+ hysteresis = <2000>; /* milliCelsius */
+ type = <THERMAL_TRIP_PASSIVE>;
+ };
+ dsp-crit: cdsp-crit {
+ temperature = <125000>; /* milliCelsius */
+ hysteresis = <2000>; /* milliCelsius */
+ type = <THERMAL_TRIP_CRITICAL>;
+ };
+ };
+ };
+
+ gpu_thermal: gpu_thermal {
+ passive-delay = <500>; /* milliseconds */
+ polling-delay = <1000>; /* milliseconds */
+ /*
+ * sensor ID
+ */
+ sensors = <&bandgap0 2>;
+ /*
+ * cooling
+ * device Usage Trip lower
bound upper bound
+ */
+ cooling-devices = <&gpu0 100 &gpu-alert
THERMAL_NO_LIMIT THERMAL_NO_LIMIT>;
+ trips {
+ gpu-alert: gpu-alert {
+ temperature = <100000>; /* milliCelsius */
+ hysteresis = <2000>; /* milliCelsius */
+ type = <THERMAL_TRIP_PASSIVE>;
+ };
+ gpu-crit: gpu-crit {
+ temperature = <125000>; /* milliCelsius */
+ hysteresis = <2000>; /* milliCelsius */
+ type = <THERMAL_TRIP_CRITICAL>;
+ };
+ };
+ };
Wei, I think the above would cover for the IPs with multiple internal
sensors cases you were looking for, right?
Durga, please also check if I am missing something to cover for your
plans to, in case you will be using DT to describe your HW.
Anyways, Mark and Pawel, let me know if I missed something from our
discussion. I believe the above bindings would look more like regular
standard DT bindings. And also they should be now slim enough, without
Linux implementation details and also without policies.
