docs: thermal: convert to ReST

2019-06-27T13:22:15Z

Rename the thermal documentation files to ReST, add an index for them and adjust in order to produce a nice html output via the Sphinx build system. At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.

docs: hwmon: Add an index file and rename docs to *.rst

2019-04-17T17:37:23Z

Now that all files were converted to ReST format, rename them and add an index. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab Signed-off-by: Guenter Roeck

Documentation: Use "while" instead of "whilst"

2018-11-20T16:30:43Z

Whilst making an unrelated change to some Documentation, Linus sayeth: | Afaik, even in Britain, "whilst" is unusual and considered more | formal, and "while" is the common word. | | [...] | | Can we just admit that we work with computers, and we don't need to | use þe eald Englisc spelling of words that most of the world never | uses? dictionary.com refers to the word as "Chiefly British", which is probably an undesirable attribute for technical documentation. Replace all occurrences under Documentation/ with "while".

thermal: Add cooling device's statistics in sysfs

2018-04-02T13:49:01Z

This extends the sysfs interface for thermal cooling devices and exposes some pretty useful statistics. These statistics have proven to be quite useful specially while doing benchmarks related to the task scheduler, where we want to make sure that nothing has disrupted the test, specially the cooling device which may have put constraints on the CPUs. The information exposed here tells us to what extent the CPUs were constrained by the thermal framework. The write-only "reset" file is used to reset the statistics. The read-only "time_in_state_ms" file shows the time (in msec) spent by the device in the respective cooling states, and it prints one line per cooling state. The read-only "total_trans" file shows single positive integer value showing the total number of cooling state transitions the device has gone through since the time the cooling device is registered or the time when statistics were reset last. The read-only "trans_table" file shows a two dimensional matrix, where an entry (row i, column j) represents the number of transitions from State_i to State_j. This is how the directory structure looks like for a single cooling device: $ ls -R /sys/class/thermal/cooling_device0/ /sys/class/thermal/cooling_device0/: cur_state max_state power stats subsystem type uevent /sys/class/thermal/cooling_device0/power: autosuspend_delay_ms runtime_active_time runtime_suspended_time control runtime_status /sys/class/thermal/cooling_device0/stats: reset time_in_state_ms total_trans trans_table This is tested on ARM 64-bit Hisilicon hikey620 board running Ubuntu and ARM 64-bit Hisilicon hikey960 board running Android.

cpu_cooling: Remove static-power related documentation

2018-01-03T12:11:48Z

commit 84fe2cab4859 ("cpu_cooling: Drop static-power related stuff") removed support for static-power in kernel, but it missed reflecting the same in documentation. Remove the static power related documentation bits as well. Reported-by: Javi Merino Signed-off-by: Viresh Kumar Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

cpu_cooling: Keep only one of_cpufreq*cooling_register() helper

2017-12-07T21:52:01Z

of_cpufreq_cooling_register() isn't used by anyone and so can be removed, but then we would be left with two routines: cpufreq_cooling_register() and of_cpufreq_power_cooling_register() that would look odd. Remove current implementation of of_cpufreq_cooling_register() and rename of_cpufreq_power_cooling_register() as of_cpufreq_cooling_register(). This simplifies lots of stuff.

cpu_cooling: Remove unused cpufreq_power_cooling_register()

It isn't used by anyone, drop it. Acked-by: Eduardo Valentin Signed-off-by: Viresh Kumar Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

cpu_cooling: Make of_cpufreq_power_cooling_register() parse DT

2017-12-07T21:52:01Z

All the callers of of_cpufreq_power_cooling_register() have almost identical code and it makes more sense to move that code into the helper as its all about reading DT properties. This got rid of lot of redundant code. Acked-by: Eduardo Valentin Signed-off-by: Viresh Kumar Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

Merge branch 'next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rzhang/linux

Pull thermal management updates from Zhang Rui: - Fix a problem where orderly_shutdown() is called for multiple times due to multiple critical overheating events raised in a short period by platform thermal driver. (Keerthy) - Introduce a backup thermal shutdown mechanism, which invokes kernel_power_off()/emergency_restart() directly, after orderly_shutdown() being issued for certain amount of time(specified via Kconfig). This is useful in certain conditions that userspace may be unable to power off the system in a clean manner and leaves the system in a critical state, like in the middle of driver probing phase. (Keerthy) - Introduce a new interface in thermal devfreq_cooling code so that the driver can provide more precise data regarding actual power to the thermal governor every time the power budget is calculated. (Lukasz Luba) - Introduce BCM 2835 soc thermal driver and northstar thermal driver, within a new sub-folder. (Rafał Miłecki) - Introduce DA9062/61 thermal driver. (Steve Twiss) - Remove non-DT booting on TI-SoC driver. Also add support to fetching coefficients from DT. (Keerthy) - Refactorf RCAR Gen3 thermal driver. (Niklas Söderlund) - Small fix on MTK and intel-soc-dts thermal driver.
