[PATCH v8 3/7] thermal:boost: Automatic enable/disable of BOOST feature

Lukasz Majewski
2013-08-26T15:50:39Z

This patch provides auto disable/enable operation for boost. When any
defined trip point is passed, the boost is disabled.
In that moment thermal monitor workqueue is woken up and it monitors
if the device temperature drops below 75% of the smallest trip point.
When device cools down, the boost is enabled again.

Changes for v8:
- Move cpufreq_boost_* stub functions definition (needed when cpufreq
is not compiled in) to cpufreq.h at cpufreq core support commit

Changes for v7:
- None

Changes for v6:
- Disable boost only when supported and enabled
- Protect boost related thermal_zone_device struct fields with mutex
- Evaluate temperature trend during boost enable decision
- Create separate methods to handle boost enable/disable
(thermal_boost_{enable|disable}) operations
- Boost is disabled at any trip point passage (not only the non critical one)
- Add stub definitions for cpufreq boost functions used when
CONFIG_CPU_FREQ is NOT defined.

Changes for v5:
- Move boost disable code from cpu_cooling.c to thermal_core.c
(to handle_non_critical_trips)
- Extent struct thermal_zone_device by adding overheated bool flag
- Implement auto enable of boost after device cools down
- Introduce boost_polling flag, which indicates if thermal uses it's predefined
pool delay or has woken up thermal workqueue only to wait until device
cools down.

Changes for v4:
- New patch
