Subject: [PATCH 1/2] thermal: int340x: processor_thermal: Enable slow workload type hints
On processors starting from Panther Lake additional hints are provided.
The hardware analyzes workload residencies over an extended period to
determine whether the workload classification tends toward idle/battery
life states or sustained/performance states. Based on this long-term
analysis, it classifies:
Power Classification: If the workload exhibits more idle or battery life
residencies, it is classified as "power". This is indicated by
setting the bit 4 of the current workload type.
Performance Classification: If the workload exhibits more sustained or
performance residencies, it is classified as "performance". This is
indicated by resetting the bit 4 of the current workload type.
This approach enables applications to ignore short-term workload
fluctuations and instead respond to longer-term power vs. performance
trends. This types of hints are called slow workload hints.
To get notifications for slow workload hints, a new bit 22 is added
to thermal mailbox to configure workload interrupts. This is possible
to exclusively only enable slow workload hints or enable in addition to
the current workload hints.
To enable slow workload hint a new attribute is added to the existing
workload hint attributes:
workload_slow_hint_enable (RW): Write 1 to enable, 0 to disable.
Reading this attribute shows the current state.
This attribute is not present any previous generation of processors.
