![]() Firmware-based thermal temperature control loops may aggressively throttle performance to prevent temperature overshoots relative to the defined target temperature. This can negatively impact performance. User space may prefer to prioritize performance, even if it results in temperature overshoots with in acceptable range. For example, user space might tolerate temperature overshoots when the device is placed on a desk, as opposed to when it's on a lap. To accommodate such scenarios, an optional attribute is provided to specify a tolerance level for temperature overshoots while maintaining acceptable performance. Attribute: thermal_tolerance: This attribute ranges from 0 to 7, where 0 represents the most aggressive control to avoid any temperature overshoots, and 7 represents a more graceful approach, favoring performance even at the expense of temperature overshoots. Note: This level may not scale linearly. For example, a value of 3 does not necessarily imply a 50% improvement in performance compared to a value of 0.
