The slope of the temperature increase or decrease can be high and when
the temperature crosses the trip point, there could be a significant
difference between the trip temperature and the measured temperatures.
That forces the userspace to read the temperature back right after
receiving a trip violation notification.
In order to be efficient, give the temperature which resulted in the
trip violation.

To add to Daniel's point, this patch will save a lot of back and forth
between userspace and kernel, when the temperature is hovering around
the trip temperature.
Certain sensors are capable of supporting temperatures with more
granular resolution (like deci C). In those cases after a trip occurs, a
0.1 C reduction in temperature when userspace reads will make it wait
for some more time before taking an action.
It is not just a delay in action, but more trip notifications before
userspace reads the temperature above trip to take an action.
I have seen this back and forth in Snapdragon chipsets.
This patch helps userspace to see the same temperature as thermal
framework and temperature violations can be handled faster and more
efficiently.

- IMO netlink message should also be treated as we treat other ABIs. So
add only when this is a must. Although here GENL version is incremented
, users are not that careful. At least on x86, we know users created
their own applications.
- Here the concern is temperature is changing so fast then netlink +
user space processing latency is enough to change further to read
temperature again. Atleast we assume that and read temperature again.
So not sure that this is the right approach to add another field for
the temperature.

Srinivas

I don't see where is the problem. The protocol is still compatible with
the previous version, so that does not break the existing AFAICT. That
is done on purpose.
There is a new attribute added, the application using the previous
version will just not be aware of its presence and parse the message
without getting the temperature.

I'm not sure to understand your comment. Whatever the mechanism
(interrupt based or polling), the temperature is read in any case by the
call to thermal_zone_device_update() which in turns calls
handle_trip_point and then send the message. So, why not add the
temperature as the userspace is interested on getting the temperature
anyway.
For instance, in polling mode, (usually set to 1000ms), the trip point
crossing is detected with a long delay and during this time the
temperature could be far beyond the trip temperature.
It is not about netlink latency but about avoiding a back and forth when
the trip point is crossed and the temperature wavering around.

The size of netlink message is changed. This is not a good argument to
just adding members at the end. The point I am trying that netlink now
is an ABI, which should go through same process as we are
adding/changing a sysfs attributes.

That is the reasoning given to add this change in the description that
slope of change is high so user is forced to read temperature again as
the trip temp +- current temp is significant. If slope is very high
then, when the temperature passed in the messages is already stale in
few ms, so the user space will still end up in re-reading again.
The reason you want to add temperature is that you sampled the latest
temperature during thermal_zone_device_update(), which may be different
than the trip temperature. So provide temperature also to user space
consumer, so it can decide whether to use as is or re-read sample. This
change will save one additional read from user space in some cases and
also allow disable notifications of trip if the temperature is hovering
around trip.
This is not to say that user can space totally can avoid another read.
Then fine with me.

Ok I understand your point. I will provide a description in
Documentation/ABI/testing, something I should have done before and take
the opportunity to provide a bigger update of the thermal netlink
messages with more commands.
Thanks
