What: /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zoneX/type Description: Strings which represent the thermal zone type. This is given by thermal zone driver as part of registration. E.g: "acpitz" indicates it's an ACPI thermal device. In order to keep it consistent with hwmon sys attribute; this should be a short, lowercase string, not containing spaces nor dashes. RO, Required What: /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zoneX/temp Description: Current temperature as reported by thermal zone (sensor). Unit: millidegree Celsius RO, Required What: /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zoneX/mode Description: One of the predefined values in [enabled, disabled]. This file gives information about the algorithm that is currently managing the thermal zone. It can be either default kernel based algorithm or user space application. enabled enable Kernel Thermal management. disabled Preventing kernel thermal zone driver actions upon trip points so that user application can take full charge of the thermal management. RW, Optional What: /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zoneX/policy Description: One of the various thermal governors used for a particular zone. RW, Required What: /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zoneX/available_policies Description: Available thermal governors which can be used for a particular zone. RO, Required What: /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zoneX/trip_point_Y_temp Description: The temperature above which trip point will be fired. Unit: millidegree Celsius RO, Optional What: /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zoneX/trip_point_Y_type Description: Strings which indicate the type of the trip point. E.g. it can be one of critical, hot, passive, `active[0-*]` for ACPI thermal zone. RO, Optional What: /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zoneX/trip_point_Y_hyst Description: The hysteresis value for a trip point, represented as an integer. Unit: Celsius RW, Optional What: /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zoneX/cdevY Description: Sysfs link to the thermal cooling device node where the sys I/F for cooling device throttling control represents. RO, Optional What: /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zoneX/cdevY_trip_point Description: The trip point in this thermal zone which `cdev[0-*]` is associated with; -1 means the cooling device is not associated with any trip point. RO, Optional What: /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zoneX/cdevY_weight Description: The influence of `cdev[0-*]` in this thermal zone. This value is relative to the rest of cooling devices in the thermal zone. For example, if a cooling device has a weight double than that of other, it's twice as effective in cooling the thermal zone. RW, Optional What: /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zoneX/emul_temp Description: Interface to set the emulated temperature method in thermal zone (sensor). After setting this temperature, the thermal zone may pass this temperature to platform emulation function if registered or cache it locally. This is useful in debugging different temperature threshold and its associated cooling action. This is write only node and writing 0 on this node should disable emulation. Unit: millidegree Celsius WO, Optional WARNING: Be careful while enabling this option on production systems, because userland can easily disable the thermal policy by simply flooding this sysfs node with low temperature values. What: /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zoneX/k_d Description: The derivative term of the power allocator governor's PID controller. For more information see Documentation/driver-api/thermal/power_allocator.rst RW, Optional What: /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zoneX/k_i Description: The integral term of the power allocator governor's PID controller. This term allows the PID controller to compensate for long term drift. For more information see Documentation/driver-api/thermal/power_allocator.rst RW, Optional What: /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zoneX/k_po Description: The proportional term of the power allocator governor's PID controller during temperature overshoot. Temperature overshoot is when the current temperature is above the "desired temperature" trip point. For more information see Documentation/driver-api/thermal/power_allocator.rst RW, Optional What: /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zoneX/k_pu Description: The proportional term of the power allocator governor's PID controller during temperature undershoot. Temperature undershoot is when the current temperature is below the "desired temperature" trip point. For more information see Documentation/driver-api/thermal/power_allocator.rst RW, Optional What: /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zoneX/integral_cutoff Description: Temperature offset from the desired temperature trip point above which the integral term of the power allocator governor's PID controller starts accumulating errors. For example, if integral_cutoff is 0, then the integral term only accumulates error when temperature is above the desired temperature trip point. For more information see Documentation/driver-api/thermal/power_allocator.rst Unit: millidegree Celsius RW, Optional What: /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zoneX/slope Description: The slope constant used in a linear extrapolation model to determine a hotspot temperature based off the sensor's raw readings. It is up to the device driver to determine the usage of these values. RW, Optional What: /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zoneX/offset Description: The offset constant used in a linear extrapolation model to determine a hotspot temperature based off the sensor's raw readings. It is up to the device driver to determine the usage of these values. RW, Optional What: /sys/class/thermal/thermal_zoneX/sustainable_power Description: An estimate of the sustained power that can be dissipated by the thermal zone. Used by the power allocator governor. For more information see Documentation/driver-api/thermal/power_allocator.rst Unit: milliwatts RW, Optional What: /sys/class/thermal/cooling_deviceX/type Description: String which represents the type of device, e.g: - for generic ACPI: should be "Fan", "Processor" or "LCD" - for memory controller device on intel_menlow platform: should be "Memory controller".

WO, Required What: /sys/class/thermal/cooling_deviceX/stats/time_in_state_ms: Description: The amount of time spent by the cooling device in various cooling states. The output will have "<state> <time>" pair in each line, which will mean this cooling device spent <time> msec of time at <state>. Output will have one line for each of the supported states. RO, Required What: /sys/class/thermal/cooling_deviceX/stats/total_trans Description: A single positive value showing the total number of times the state of a cooling device is changed. RO, Required What: /sys/class/thermal/cooling_deviceX/stats/trans_table Description: This gives fine grained information about all the cooling state transitions. The cat output here is a two dimensional matrix, where an entry <i,j> (row i, column j) represents the number of transitions from State_i to State_j. If the transition table is bigger than PAGE_SIZE, reading this will return an -EFBIG error. RO, Required
