From a7d6ba14efb778fc8c65c627a057d5dd29debd04 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daniel Lezcano Date: Tue, 15 Dec 2020 00:38:04 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] thermal/core: Remove the 'forced_passive' option The code was reorganized in 2012 with the commit 0c01ebbfd3caf1. The main change is a loop on the trip points array and a unconditional call to the throttle() ops of the governors for each of them even if the trip temperature is not reached yet. With this change, the 'forced_passive' is no longer checked in the thermal_zone_device_update() function but in the step wise governor's throttle() callback. As the force_passive does no belong to the trip point array, the thermal_zone_device_update() can not compare with the specified passive temperature, thus does not detect the passive limit has been crossed. Consequently, throttle() is never called and the 'forced_passive' branch is unreached. In addition, the default processor cooling device is not automatically bound to the thermal zone if there is not passive trip point, thus the 'forced_passive' can not operate. If there is an active trip point, then the throttle function will be called to mitigate at this temperature and the 'forced_passive' will override the mitigation of the active trip point in this case but with the default cooling device bound to the thermal zone, so usually a fan, and that is not a passive cooling effect. Given the regression exists since more than 8 years, nobody complained and at the best of my knowledge there is no bug open in https://bugzilla.kernel.org, it is reasonable to say it is unused. Remove the 'forced_passive' related code.
