162 * struct thermal_zone_device - structure for a thermal zone
163 * @id: unique id number for each thermal zone
164 * @type: the thermal zone device type
165 * @device: &struct device for this thermal zone
166 * @trip_temp_attrs: attributes for trip points for sysfs: trip temperature
167 * @trip_type_attrs: attributes for trip points for sysfs: trip type
168 * @trip_hyst_attrs: attributes for trip points for sysfs: trip hysteresis
169 * @devdata: private pointer for device private data
170 * @trips: number of trip points the thermal zone supports
171 * @passive_delay: number of milliseconds to wait between polls when
172 * performing passive cooling. Currenty only used by the
173 * step-wise governor
174 * @polling_delay: number of milliseconds to wait between polls when
175 * checking whether trip points have been crossed (0 for
176 * interrupt driven systems)
177 * @temperature: current temperature. This is only for core code,
178 * drivers should use thermal_zone_get_temp() to get the
179 * current temperature
180 * @last_temperature: previous temperature read
181 * @emul_temperature: emulated temperature when using CONFIG_THERMAL_EMULATION
182 * @passive: 1 if you've crossed a passive trip point, 0 otherwise.
183 * Currenty only used by the step-wise governor.
184 * @forced_passive: If > 0, temperature at which to switch on all ACPI
185 * processor cooling devices. Currently only used by the
186 * step-wise governor.
187 * @ops: operations this &thermal_zone_device supports
188 * @tzp: thermal zone parameters
189 * @governor: pointer to the governor for this thermal zone
190 * @thermal_instances: list of &struct thermal_instance of this thermal zone
191 * @idr: &struct idr to generate unique id for this zone's cooling
192 * devices
193 * @lock: lock to protect thermal_instances list
194 * @node: node in thermal_tz_list (in thermal_core.c)
195 * @poll_queue: delayed work for polling
