Can you please provide more groundings why step_wise is not working? I had a look on bang bang proposal patch and to me, at a first glance, step_wise should cover the target behavior. Of course, that also depend on the cooling device you attach to it. Is it possible to report the problems you have with step_wise? This way we could benefit the other users of it as well. > * Do some minor clean up like: > - adding second trip point for critical temperature (Patch 5) > - removing _t suffix from struct which isn't typedef and replace > unsigned > char by u8 (Patch 6) > > Thanks and kind regards, > peter > > > Cc: Andrew Morton <a...@linux-foundation.org> > Cc: Andreas Mohr <a...@lisas.de> > Cc: Borislav Petkov <b...@suse.de> > Cc: Zhang Rui <rui.zh...@intel.com> > Cc: Javi Merino <javi.mer...@arm.com> > > > Peter Feuerer (6): > acerhdf: Adding support for "manual mode" > acerhdf: Adding support for new models > thermal: Added Bang-bang thermal governor > acerhdf: Use bang-bang thermal governor > acerhdf: added critical trip point > acerhdf: minor clean up > > drivers/platform/x86/Kconfig | 2 +- > drivers/platform/x86/acerhdf.c | 260 > +++++++++++++++++++++++++--------------- > drivers/thermal/Kconfig | 10 ++ > drivers/thermal/Makefile | 1 + > drivers/thermal/gov_bang_bang.c | 131 ++++++++++++++++++++ > drivers/thermal/thermal_core.c | 5 + > drivers/thermal/thermal_core.h | 8 ++ > 7 files changed, 321 insertions(+), 96 deletions(-) > create mode 100644 drivers/thermal/gov_bang_bang.c > > -- > 1.9.2 > > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in > the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html > Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
