I am not against this addition. But looks like we start to spread some
specific APIs that may not be used to other drivers. Maybe having a
single API to provide a read-only copy the list / array of trips might
be a better approach. I will think of a better way.

I also request you to document it accordingly.

here, it is supposed to be static inline.

Why do you think that this is a specific API? In the thermal OF we can
define trip point as "active", "passive", "hot" and "critical".

With the first three we can handle them and properly react. For the last
one SoC's PMU will power down the board.

Do you know if any board (e.g. from TI) is NOT supposed to shut down
when "critical" temperature is passed?

The real problem here is the accessibility to __thermal_trip and
__thermal_bind arrays.

Use case:
In the Exynos driver we do need to initialize TMU registers with
threshold temperatures.
The temperature is read via tz->ops->get_trip_temp() [1] (from
of-thermal.c).
Unfortunately, the current API is not exporting the number of
non-critical trip points to know how many times call [1].
Of course we could by hand instantiate [1] n times, but this looks for
me a bit clumsy.

Additionally, we now have implicit assumption about the order of defined
temperatures for trip points, but I think this is not a big issue.

Definitely. Exporting available trip points is crucial.

Ok, I will do that.

So, my point is not really about the usage of trip points. It is just
that the of-thermal  API will grow with in a wide way with specific
functions to check some property on the trip point array. And not all
drivers may be using these function, e.g. the above proposal.

I understand your use case. My point was simply that this use case may
be specific to your driver (or few drivers).

Yeah, I think it is the best thing to do. Share a read-only array / copy
of the needed data, and then drivers would check what ever property they
need from the array. Just make sure you document that this is a
read-only array (i.e. any possible change they do, won't affect the
original array).

Is this indeed plural or you want to program the next trip point as your
alarm temperature? If so, there was another patch floating around adding
set_trips() callback that would get passed in the low and high trip points for
the current temperature reading and you can use that data to program
alarms. Rockchip thermal driver uses it.
