The thermal framework does not have any debug information except a sysfs stat which is a bit controversial. This one allocates big chunks of memory for every cooling devices with a high number of states and could represent on some systems in production several megabytes of memory for just a portion of it. As the sysfs is limited to a page size, the output is not exploitable with large data array and gets truncated. The patch provides the same information than sysfs except the transitions are dynamically allocated, thus they won't show more events than the ones which actually occurred. There is no longer a size limitation and it opens the field for more debugging information where the debugfs is designed for, not sysfs. The thermal debugfs directory structure tries to stay consistent with the sysfs one but in a very simplified way: thermal/ -- cooling_devices |-- 0 | |-- clear | |-- time_in_state_ms | |-- total_trans | `-- trans_table |-- 1 | |-- clear | |-- time_in_state_ms | |-- total_trans | `-- trans_table |-- 2 | |-- clear | |-- time_in_state_ms | |-- total_trans | `-- trans_table |-- 3 | |-- clear | |-- time_in_state_ms | |-- total_trans | `-- trans_table `-- 4 |-- clear |-- time_in_state_ms |-- total_trans `-- trans_table The content of the files in the cooling devices directory is the same as the sysfs one except for the trans_table which has the following format: Transition Hits 1->0 246 0->1 246 2->1 632 1->2 632 3->2 98 2->3 98 Signed-off-by: Daniel Lezcano <daniel.lezcano@linaro.org> [ rjw: White space fixups, rebase ] Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
