+* Temperature Sensor ADC (TSADC) on rockchip SoCs

+Required properties:
+- compatible: "rockchip,rk3288-tsadc"
+- reg: physical base address of the controller and length of memory
mapped
+       region.
+- interrupts: The interrupt number to the cpu. The interrupt specifier
format +	      depends on the interrupt controller.
+- clocks: Must contain an entry for each entry in clock-names.
+- clock-names: Shall be "tsadc" for the converter-clock, and
"apb_pclk" for +	       the peripheral clock.
You're using the passive-temp, critical-temp and force-shut-temp
properties in your driver without declaring them here.
frankly,the about are need be declared. but  there are 4 types[0] for
trip in thermal framework,
there is no force-shut for me. So I want to change it three additional
properties in [PATCH V4 4/4],


[0]
{

     THERMAL_TRIP_CRITICAL,
     THERMAL_TRIP_HOT,
     THERMAL_TRIP_PASSIVE,
     THERMAL_TRIP_ACTIVE,

}
this sounds reasonable to me.

But more importantly, please use the generic trip-points for this. I
guess it shouldn't be a problem to introduce a "forced-shutdown"
trippoint [0] for the additional trip-point you have - thermal
maintainers, please shout if I'm wrong :-)
what is the difference between a critical trip point and a
"forced-shutdown" trip point?
Thermal core will do a shutdown in case the critical trip point is
triggered.
The forced-shutdown is where the thermal controller is supposed to also do a 
Currently, there is no discrimination between hardware configured /
triggered thermal shutdown and software detected / triggered thermal shutdown.
One way to implement it though is to reuse the critical trip type. Even
if you use more than one trip type it is doable, it will depend on the
priorities you give to software triggered and hardware triggered.
shutdown in hardware. As you said the thermal core will also shutdown at the 
critical trip point, I guess we could map Caesar's value like

trip-point		tsadc
critical		forced-shutdown (the 120 degrees in patch 4)
hot			critical (the 100 degrees)
...
In the case we are planing to expand the trip type range, adding one
specific to hardware configurable shutdown makes sense to me too.
Alhtough, as I mention, I believe with the current generic trip types,
this situation can be covered already. Besides, I believe
'forced-shutdown' does not sound a descriptive enough though. I would
suggest something more specific, say 'hardware-shutdown'.

It's a good option.
I can send a patch,but I don't know whether the thermal maintainers will
accept it.

Maybe,they have a better way to suggest it.:-)


PS:I will sent a new patch If I still have no received their suggestions
in two days.
