* thermal: power_allocator: relax the requirement of two passive trip pointsJavi Merino2015-09-141-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The power allocator governor currently requires that the thermal zone has at least two passive trip points. If there aren't, the governor refuses to bind to the thermal zone. This commit relaxes that requirement. Now the governor will bind to all thermal zones regardless of how many trip points they have.

* thermal: support slope and offset coefficientsEduardo Valentin2015-05-111-0/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is common to have a linear extrapolation from the current sensor readings and the actual temperature value. This is specially the case when the sensor is in use to extrapolate hotspots. This patch adds slope and offset constants for single sensor linear extrapolation equation. Because the same sensor can be use in different locations, from board to board, these constants are added as part of thermal_zone_params. The constants are available through sysfs. It is up to the device driver to determine the usage of these values. Signed-off-by: Eduardo Valentin <edubezval@gmail.com>

* thermal: introduce the Power Allocator governorJavi Merino2015-05-041-0/+247
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The power allocator governor is a thermal governor that controls system and device power allocation to control temperature. Conceptually, the implementation divides the sustainable power of a thermal zone among all the heat sources in that zone. This governor relies on "power actors", entities that represent heat sources. They can report current and maximum power consumption and can set a given maximum power consumption, usually via a cooling device. The governor uses a Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) controller driven by the temperature of the thermal zone. The output of the controller is a power budget that is then allocated to each power actor that can have bearing on the temperature we are trying to control. It decides how much power to give each cooling device based on the performance they are requesting. The PID controller ensures that the total power budget does not exceed the control temperature.

* thermal: fair_share: generalize the weight conceptJavi Merino2015-05-041-3/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The fair share governor has the concept of weights, which is the influence of each cooling device in a thermal zone. The current implementation forces the weights of all cooling devices in a thermal zone to add up to a 100. This complicates setups, as you need to know in advance how many cooling devices you are going to have. If you bind a new cooling device, you have to modify all the other cooling devices weights, which is error prone. Furthermore, you can't specify a "default" weight for platforms since that default value depends on the number of cooling devices in the platform. This patch generalizes the concept of weight by allowing any number to be a "weight". Weights are now relative to each other. Platforms that don't specify weights get the same default value for all their cooling devices, so all their cdevs are considered to be equally influential. It's important to note that previous users of the weights don't need to alter the code: percentages continue to work as they used to. This patch just removes the constraint of all the weights in a thermal zone having to add up to a 100. If they do, you get the same behavior as before. If they don't, fair share now works for that platform.

* thermal: of: fix cooling device weights in device treeKapileshwar Singh2015-05-041-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently you can specify the weight of the cooling device in the device tree but that information is not populated to the thermal_bind_params where the fair share governor expects it to be. The of thermal zone device doesn't have a thermal_bind_params structure and arguably it's better to pass the weight inside the thermal_instance as it is specific to the bind of a cooling device to a thermal zone parameter. Core thermal code is fixed to populate the weight in the instance from the thermal_bind_params, so platform code that was passing the weight inside the thermal_bind_params continue to work seamlessly. While we are at it, create a default value for the weight parameter for those thermal zones that currently don't define it and remove the hardcoded default in of-thermal.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When registering a thermal zone device using platform information via bind_params, the thermal framework will always perform the cdev binding using the lowest and highest limits (THERMAL_NO_LIMIT). This patch changes the data structures so that it is possible to inform what are the desired limits for each trip point inside a bind_param. The way the binding is performed is also changed so that it uses the new data structure.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When registering a new thermal_device, the thermal framework will always add a hwmon sysfs interface. This patch adds a flag to make this behavior optional. Now when registering a new thermal device, the caller can optionally inform if hwmon interface is desirable. This can be done by means of passing a thermal_zone_params.no_hwmon == true. In order to keep same behavior as of today, all current calls will by default create the hwmon interface.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This removes the driver specific sysfs support of the temperature emulation and uses the newly added core thermal framework for thermal emulation. An exynos platform specific handler is added to support this. In this patch, the exynos senor(tmu) related code and exynos framework related (thermal zone, cooling devices) code are intentionally kept separate. So an emulated function pointer is passed from sensor to framework. This is beneficial in adding more sensor support using the same framework code which is an ongoing work. The goal is to finally split them totally. Even the existing read_temperature also follows the same execution method.

As a proof of concept, we have drivers for the following platforms using this mechanism now: * Samsung Exynos (Exynos4 and Exynos5) in the current patchset. * Freescale i.MX (git://git.linaro.org/people/amitdanielk/linux.git imx6q_thermal) There is a small change in cpufreq cooling registration APIs, so a minor change is needed for Freescale platforms. Brief Description: 1) The generic cooling devices code is placed inside driver/thermal/* as placing inside acpi folder will need un-necessary enabling of acpi code. This code is architecture independent. 2) This patchset adds generic cpu cooling low level implementation through frequency clipping. In future, other cpu related cooling devices may be added here. An ACPI version of this already exists (drivers/acpi/processor_thermal.c) .But this will be useful for platforms like ARM using the generic thermal interface along with the generic cpu cooling devices. The cooling device registration API's return cooling device pointers which can be easily binded with the thermal zone trip points. The important APIs exposed are, a) struct thermal_cooling_device *cpufreq_cooling_register( struct cpumask *clip_cpus) b) void cpufreq_cooling_unregister(struct thermal_cooling_device *cdev) 3) Samsung exynos platform thermal implementation is done using the generic cpu cooling APIs and the new trip type. The temperature sensor driver present in the hwmon folder(registered as hwmon driver) is moved to thermal folder and registered as a thermal driver. A simple data/control flow diagrams is shown below, Core Linux thermal <-----> Exynos thermal interface <----- Temperature Sensor | | \|/ | Cpufreq cooling device <--------------- TODO: *Will send the DT enablement patches later after the driver is merged. This patch: Add support for generic cpu thermal cooling low level implementations using frequency scaling up/down based on the registration parameters. Different cpu related cooling devices can be registered by the user and the binding of these cooling devices to the corresponding trip points can be easily done as the registration APIs return the cooling device pointer. The user of these APIs are responsible for passing clipping frequency . The drivers can also register to recieve notification about any cooling action called.

* Thermal: Add Hysteresis attributesDurgadoss R2012-07-241-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Linux Thermal Framework does not support hysteresis attributes. Most thermal sensors, today, have a hysteresis value associated with trip points. This patch adds hysteresis attributes on a per-trip-point basis, to the Thermal Framework. These attributes are optionally writable.

* Thermal: Make Thermal trip points writeableDurgadoss R2012-07-241-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | Some of the thermal drivers using the Generic Thermal Framework require (all/some) trip points to be writeable. This patch makes the trip point temperatures writeable on a per-trip point basis, and modifies the required function call in thermal.c. This patch also updates the Documentation to reflect the new change.

* thermal: add sanity check for the passive attributeFrans Pop2009-11-051-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Values below 1000 milli-celsius don't make sense and can cause the system to go into a thermal heart attack: the actual temperature will always be lower and thus the system will be throttled down to its lowest setting. An additional problem is that values below 1000 will show as 0 in /proc/acpi/thermal/TZx/trip_points:passive. cat passive 0 echo -n 90 >passive bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument echo -n 90000 >passive cat passive 90000 Signed-off-by: Frans Pop <elendil@planet.nl> Acked-by: Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
