Sorry for the noise. I just tested with spiking this patch and my observation and testing were wrong we can skip this patch. I will send an v2 patch series removing the patch 5 and patch 6. With correct dts changes. Thanks for pointing my mistake. -Anand Moon On 8 April 2015 at 22:23, Guenter Roeck wrote: > On Wed, Apr 08, 2015 at 09:32:05PM +0530, Anand Moon wrote: >> Hi Guenter, >> >> Initially the board bootup the cooling level state is 0. >> So update the duty cycle and this power off the fan. >> As their is no state change the fan will not spin. >> >> Once the temperature sensor is reached to alert temperature it changes state. >> With the state change the fan cools the CPU and then stop's >> >> I have observed this state change with tmon utility in linux/tools/thermal/tmon/ >> > Sorry, I am missing something.
