Say all the target of the thermal_instances of a cooling devices is 0, which means they want the cpu to run at maximum frequency, when the max frequency changes, we should set the processor to the new max frequency as well. Using notification is not a good idea as user can not handle this without interacting with the thermal framework. IMO, we should introduce a new API to handle this, rather than just notifications to users. > Actually, the use case behind > this is to allow such users to perform some handshaking or stop their > activities or even change some paramenters, in case the max frequency > would change. It is the cooling device driver that notice this change first, and it should invoke something like thermal_cooling_device_update/rebind() to tell the thermal framework this change. > Ideally it would be possible to nack the cooling > transition.

Or else, we are kind of over-designing here. how about removing this piece of code for now? thanks, rui > >> > >>> diff --git a/drivers/thermal/Kconfig b/drivers/thermal/Kconfig > >>> index 7dd8c34..996003b 100644 > >>> --- a/drivers/thermal/Kconfig > >>> +++ b/drivers/thermal/Kconfig > >>> @@ -19,6 +19,17 @@ config THERMAL_HWMON > >>> depends on HWMON=y || HWMON=THERMAL > >>> default y > >>> > >>> +config CPU_THERMAL > >>> + bool "generic cpu cooling support" > >>> + depends on THERMAL && CPU_FREQ > >>> + help > >>> + This implements the generic cpu cooling mechanism through frequency > >>> + reduction, cpu hotplug and any other ways of reducing temperature.
