LinuxLists.cc - [PATCH v2 8/9] thermal: of: Set THERMAL_TRIP_FLAG_RW

Subject: [PATCH v2 8/9] thermal: of: Set THERMAL_TRIP_FLAG_RW_TEMP directly

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <[email protected]>

It is now possible to flag trip points with THERMAL_TRIP_FLAG_RW_TEMP
to allow their temperature to be set from user space via sysfs instead
of using a nonzero writable trips mask during thermal zone registration,
so make the OF thermal code do that.

No intentional functional impact.

Note that this change is requisite for dropping the mask argument from
thermal_zone_device_register_with_trips() going forward.

v1 -> v2: Rename trip flag (Stanislaw).

Even if you are not at the origin of this default behavior. I'm
wondering if we should be more protective against changes from userspace
when the firmware is telling us to protect the silicon at a specific
temperature.

What do you think if we set the THERMAL_TRIP_FLAG_RW_TEMP only if the
trip point is not bound to a cooling device?

So trip points without associated cooling device can be writable but
others can be considered as managed by the kernel and no modifiable.

(This comment does not put in question this patch BTW)
