The thermal device tree bindings are +not about how the system must control or which algorithm or policy +must be taken in place. + +There are five types of nodes involved to describe thermal bindings: +- thermal sensors: devices which may be used to take temperature + measurements. +- cooling devices: devices which may be used to dissipate heat. +- trip points: describe key temperatures at which cooling is recommended. The + set of points should be chosen based on hardware limits. +- cooling maps: used to describe links between trip points and cooling devices; +- thermal zones: used to describe thermal data within the hardware; + +The following is a description of each of these node types. + +* Thermal sensor devices + +Thermal sensor devices are nodes providing temperature sensing capabilities on +thermal zones. Typical devices are I2C ADC converters and bandgaps. These are +nodes providing temperature data to thermal zones. Thermal sensor devices may +control one or more internal sensors. + +Required property: +- #thermal-sensor-cells: Used to provide sensor device specific information + Type: unsigned while referring to it. Typically 0 on thermal sensor + Size: one cell nodes with only one sensor, and at least 1 on nodes + with several internal sensors, in order + to identify uniquely the sensor instances within + the IC. See thermal zone binding for more details + on how consumers refer to sensor devices. + +* Cooling device nodes + +Cooling devices are nodes providing control on power dissipation. There +are essentially two ways to provide control on power dissipation. First +is by means of regulating device performance, which is known as passive +cooling. A typical passive cooling is a CPU that has dynamic voltage and +frequency scaling (DVFS), and uses lower frequencies as cooling states. +Second is by means of activating devices in order to remove +the dissipated heat, which is known as active cooling, e.g. regulating +fan speeds. In both cases, cooling devices shall have a way to determine +the state of cooling in which the device is. + +Any cooling device has a range of cooling states (i.e. different levels +of heat dissipation). For example a fan's cooling states correspond to +the different fan speeds possible. Cooling states are referred to by +single unsigned integers, where larger numbers mean greater heat +dissipation. The precise set of cooling states associated with a device +(as referred to be the cooling-min-state and cooling-max-state +properties) should be defined in a particular device's binding. +For more examples of cooling devices, refer to the example sections below. + +Required properties: +- cooling-min-state: An integer indicating the smallest + Type: unsigned cooling state accepted.

Must be at least 2, in order + Size: one cell to specify minimum and maximum cooling state used + in the reference. The first cell is the minimum + cooling state requested and the second cell is + the maximum cooling state requested in the reference. + See Cooling device maps section below for more details + on how consumers refer to cooling devices. + +* Trip points + +The trip node is a node to describe a point in the temperature domain +in which the system takes an action. This node describes just the point, +not the action. + +Required properties: +- temperature: An integer indicating the trip temperature level, + Type: signed in millicelsius. + Size: one cell + +- hysteresis: A low hysteresis value on temperature property (above). + Type: unsigned This is a relative value, in millicelsius. + Size: one cell + +- type: a string containing the trip type.

The cooling devices are expected +to be loaded in the target system. + +Required properties: +- cooling-device: A phandle of a cooling device with its specifier, + Type: phandle + referring to which cooling device is used in this + cooling specifier binding. In the cooling specifier, the first cell + is the minimum cooling state and the second cell + is the maximum cooling state used in this map. +- trip: A phandle of a trip point node within the same thermal + Type: phandle of zone. + trip point node + +Optional property: +- contribution: The cooling contribution to the thermal zone of the + Type: unsigned referred cooling device at the referred trip point. + Size: one cell The contribution is a ratio of the sum + of all cooling contributions within a thermal zone. + +Note: Using the THERMAL_NO_LIMIT (-1UL) constant in the cooling-device phandle +limit specifier means: +(i) - minimum state allowed for minimum cooling state used in the reference. +(ii) - maximum state allowed for maximum cooling state used in the reference. +Refer to include/dt-bindings/thermal/thermal.h for definition of this constant. + +* Thermal zone nodes + +The thermal zone node is the node containing all the required info +for describing a thermal zone, including its cooling device bindings. The +thermal zone node must contain, apart from its own properties, one sub-node +containing trip nodes and one sub-node containing all the zone cooling maps. + +Required properties: +- polling-delay: The maximum number of milliseconds to wait between polls + Type: unsigned when checking this thermal zone. + Size: one cell + +- polling-delay-passive: The maximum number of milliseconds to wait + Type: unsigned between polls when performing passive cooling. + Size: one cell + +- thermal-sensors: A list of thermal sensor phandles and sensor specifier + Type: list of used while monitoring the thermal zone. + phandles + sensor + specifier + +- trips: A sub-node which is a container of only trip point nodes + Type: sub-node required to describe the thermal zone. + +- cooling-maps: A sub-node which is a container of only cooling device + Type: sub-node map nodes, used to describe the relation between trips + and cooling devices. + +Optional property: +- coefficients: An array of integers (one signed cell) containing + Type: array coefficients to compose a linear relation between + Elem size: one cell the sensors listed in the thermal-sensors property. + Elem type: signed Coefficients defaults to 1, in case this property + is not specified. A simple linear polynomial is used: + Z = c0 * x0 + c1 + x1 + ... + c(n-1) * x(n-1) + cn. + + The coefficients are ordered and they match with sensors + by means of sensor ID. Additional coefficients are + interpreted as constant offset. + +Note: The delay properties are bound to the maximum dT/dt (temperature +derivative over time) in two situations for a thermal zone: +(i) - when passive cooling is activated (polling-delay-passive); and +(ii) - when the zone just needs to be monitored (polling-delay) or +when active cooling is activated. + +The maximum dT/dt is highly bound to hardware power consumption and dissipation +capability. The delays should be chosen to account for said max dT/dt, +such that a device does not cross several trip boundaries unexpectedly +between polls. Choosing the right polling delays shall avoid having the +device in temperature ranges that may damage the silicon structures and +reduce silicon lifetime. + +* The thermal-zones node + +The "thermal-zones" node is a container for all thermal zone nodes.

The cpu@0 device is also +linked to the same thermal zone, 'cpu-thermal', as a passive cooling device, +using all its cooling states at trip point 'cpu_alert1', +which is a trip point at 100C.

The hardware has been designed so that sensors are +placed on different places in the DIE to monitor different temperature +hotspots: one for CPU thermal zone, one for GPU thermal zone and the +other to monitor a DSP thermal zone. + +Thus, there is a need to assign each sensor provided by the bandgap IC +to different thermal zones.
