Then for trip == 1 you should also write something in *temp if it's a
valid trip point and you don't want to return -EINVAL.  I don't know
what is the correct hysteresis for trip == 1. Maybe 0?  What I'm
trying to say is that you should return 0 only if you've updated
*temp.

I think you should only return 0 if you've updated the temperature.
Otherwise you're telling the calling function that everything went all
right but you may be leaving garbage in *temp.  What about

if (trip != 0)
return -EINVAL;

*temp = fanon - fanoff;

Yes, sounds good.  What about trip == 1?  This is a valid trip point for 
acerhdf (critical) and one could argue, that it has a valid hysteresis of 
0.  - Thus EINVAL would be wrong here.

[PATCH v3 4/6] acerhdf: Use bang-bang thermal governor

2014-05-03 Thread Peter Feuerer
acerhdf has been doing an on-off fan control using hysteresis by
post-manipulating the outcome of thermal subsystem trip point handling.
This patch enables acerhdf to use the bang-bang governor, which is
intended for on-off controlled fans.

[PATCH v3 4/6] acerhdf: Use bang-bang thermal governor

2014-05-03 Thread Peter Feuerer
acerhdf has been doing an on-off fan control using hysteresis by
post-manipulating the outcome of thermal subsystem trip point handling.
This patch enables acerhdf to use the bang-bang governor, which is
intended for on-off controlled fans.
