There may be no cooling device on system, or there are no enough
cooling devices for each thermal zone in multiple thermal zone
cases since cooling devices can't be shared.
So make this property optional to remove such limitations.

Yeah, I am not sure that is enough reason to make this property
optional. Let me maybe ask you why do you care creating a thermal
zone if your control has no actions? Or rather, why bothering
setting up a control that has no actuators?

No cooling-device map doesn't mean NO ACTIONS. There could be critic trips that trigger CPU reset or shutdown.
The root cause for it here is: there is no enough cooling device for each zone when multiple zone exist.
For example, for our ls2088a platform, there are 7 thermal zones, but we have only one cooling device which is cpufreq.
Due to this option limitation, multiple zones can't be supported.
I believe on most platform, there are only two type of cooling devices, cpufreq and fan. So how many cooling devices it could be?
So making the property optional is reasonable. We can assign cooling devices to certain thermal zones and leave the thermal zone with no cooling device taking default actions.

Andy

From my POV, this patch makes sense. We may be interested to show up the
thermal zones in sysfs and optionally mitigate them via an userspace
governor.

Rui, Daniel,
What do you think about the above interpretation of the cooling-maps bindings?

Thanks for the headsup. I can fixup v3 when I respin.
However, I've always interpreted this binding as follows:
- cooling-maps should be mandatory for active and passive trip types
otherwise there will be no cooling
- cooling-maps make no sense for critical trip type since we're
invoking system shutdown
- cooling-maps are optional for hot trip types.
Is this your understanding too?
We should be able to enforce this in YAML.
Regards,
Amit

Amit, I'm about to pick this patch, it will collide with the yaml
conversion changes.

Cooling-maps doesn't have to be a required property because there may
be no cooling device on system, or there are no enough cooling devices for
each thermal zone in multiple thermal zone cases since cooling devices
can't be shared.
So make this property optional to remove such limitations.
For thermal zones with no cooling-maps, there could be critic trips
that can trigger CPU reset or shutdown. So they still can take actions.
