[PATCH v9 1/3] dt-bindings: thermal-zones: Document critical-action

[PATCH v9 1/3] dt-bindings: thermal-zones: Document critical-action

[Fabio Estevam]

From: Fabio Estevam <festevam@denx.de>

Document the critical-action property to describe the thermal action
the OS should perform after the critical temperature is reached.

The possible values are "shutdown" and "reboot".

The motivation for introducing the critical-action property is that
different systems may need different thermal actions when the critical
temperature is reached.

For example, a desktop PC may want the OS to trigger a shutdown
when the critical temperature is reached.

However, in some embedded cases, such behavior does not suit well,
as the board may be unattended in the field and rebooting may be a
better approach.

The bootloader may also benefit from this new property as it can check
the SoC temperature and in case the temperature is above the critical
point, it can trigger a shutdown or reboot accordingly.

[PATCH v9 2/3] reboot: Introduce thermal_zone_device_critical_reboot()

[Fabio Estevam]

From: Fabio Estevam <festevam@denx.de>

Introduce thermal_zone_device_critical_reboot() to trigger an
emergency reboot.

It is a counterpart of thermal_zone_device_critical() with the
difference that it will force a reboot instead of shutdown.

The motivation for doing this is to allow the thermal subystem
to trigger a reboot when the temperature reaches the critical
temperature.

[PATCH v9 3/3] thermal: thermal_core: Allow rebooting after critical temp

[Fabio Estevam]

From: Fabio Estevam <festevam@denx.de>

Currently, the default mechanism is to trigger a shutdown after the
critical temperature is reached.

In some embedded cases, such behavior does not suit well, as the board may
be unattended in the field and rebooting may be a better approach.

The bootloader may also check the temperature and only allow the boot to
proceed when the temperature is below a certain threshold.

Introduce support for allowing a reboot to be triggered after the
critical temperature is reached.

If the "critical-action" devicetree property is not found, fall back to
the shutdown action to preserve the existing default behavior.

If a custom ops->critical exists, then it takes preference over
critical-actions.

Tested on a i.MX8MM board with the following devicetree changes:

	thermal-zones {
		cpu-thermal {
			critical-action = "reboot";
		};
	};

 From my POV, 'critical' means kernel handles the action. We can not 
trust the userspace at this point.

The 'hot' trip point will result on a notification to the OS which can 
then take an last resort action before 'critical' kicks in (suspend, 
kill process, cpu hotplug, whatever)

This option is dangerous and should be more documented.

"The action the OS should perform after the critical temperature is 
reached. By default the system will shutdown as a safe action to prevent 
to damage the hardware if the property is not set. The shutdown action 
should be always the default. Choose carefully 'reboot' as the hardware 
may be in thermal stress, thus leading to infinite reboots damaging the 
hardware. Make sure the firmware will act as the last resort and take 
over the thermal control."

Probably nit picking but is it possible to rename to:

static void thermal_zone_device_halt(struct thermal_zone_device *tz, 
bool shutdown)

Why use 'static' ?

>   		  "shutting down\n", tz->type);

Now the function can do 'shutdown' or 'reboot', so the message should 
reflect that.

However, the reason will be displayed in the 
hw_protection_shutdown/reboot, so having:

dev_emerg(&tz->device, "%s: critical temperature reached\n", tz->type);

Rename to thermal_zone_device_critical_shutdown() for consistency (in a
