Thermal Control Customization

Overview

Introduction

By default, OpenHarmony provides the thermal control feature. If a device becomes overheated during usage, thermal control measures need to be taken for the device. For example, if the battery temperature is too high during charging, then thermal control needs to be applied to the charging device. However, thermal control varies according to product specifications. To address this issue, OpenHarmony provides the thermal control customization function.

Constraints

The configuration path for battery level customization is subject to the configuration policy. In this development guide, /vendor is used as an example of the configuration path. During actual development, you need to modify the customization path based on the product configuration policy.

How to Develop

Setting Up the Environment

Hardware requirements:

Development board running the standard system, for example, the DAYU200 or Hi3516D V300 open source suite.

Environment requirements:

For details about the requirements on the Linux environment, see Quick Start.

Getting Started with Development

The following uses DAYU200 as an example to illustrate thermal control customization.

Create the thermal folder in the product directory /vendor/hihope/rk3568.
Create a target folder by referring to the default thermal control configuration folder, and install it in //vendor/hihope/rk3568/thermal. The content is as follows:
```
profile
├── BUILD.gn
├── thermal_service_config.xml
```
Write the custom thermal_service_config.xml file by referring to the thermal_service_config.xml file in the default thermal control configuration folder. The following table describes the related configuration items.

Table 1 Configuration items for thermal control

|Configuration Item|Description|Parameter|Parameter Description|Data Type|Value Range| |——–|——–|——–|——–|——–|——–| |name=“airplane”|Airplane mode control|N/A|N/A|N/A|N/A| |name=“cpu_big”|Big-core CPU control (big-core CPU frequency)|N/A|N/A|N/A|N/A| |name=“cpu_med”|Medium-core CPU control (medium-core CPU frequency)|N/A|N/A|N/A|N/A| |name=“cpu_lit”|Small-core CPU control (small-core CPU frequency)|N/A|N/A|N/A|N/A| |name=“gpu”|GPU control (GPU frequency)|N/A|N/A|N/A|N/A| |name=“boost”|SOCPERF thermal level control|event|- 1: event sending enabled

```shell
<action>
    <item name="airplane"/>
    <item name="cpu_big"/>
    <item name="cpu_med"/>
    <item name="cpu_lit"/>
    <item name="gpu"/>
    <item name="boost" event="1"/>
    <item name="isolate" event="1"/>
    <item name="lcd"/>
    <item name="volume" uid="2001,2002"/>
    <item name="current_sc" protocol="current" param="sc" event="1"/>
    <item name="voltage_buck" protocol="voltage" param="buck" event="1"/>
    <item name="process_ctrl" param="32,64,128,256" event=""/>
    <item name="shut_down" event="0"/>
    <item name="thermallevel" event="1"/>
    <item name="popup"/>
    <item name="(action_name)" protocol="node" param="/sys/class/thermal/xxx"/>
    <item name="test"/>
</action>
```

Write the BUILD.gn file by referring to the BUILD.gn file in the default thermal control configuration folder to pack the thermal_service_config.xml file to the /vendor/etc/thermal_config directory. The configuration is as follows:

import("//build/ohos.gni")                      # Reference build/ohos.gni.


ohos_prebuilt_etc("thermal_service_config") {
    source = "thermal_service_config.xml"
    relative_install_dir = "thermal_config"
    install_images = [ chipset_base_dir ]       # Required configuration for installing the thermal_service_config.xml file in the vendor directory.
    part_name = "product_rk3568"                # Set part_name to product_rk3568 for subsequent build. You can change it as required.
}

Add the build target to module_list in ohos.build. For example:

{
    "parts": {
        "product_rk3568": {
            "module_list": [
                "//vendor/hihope/rk3568/default_app_config:default_app_config",
                "//vendor/hihope/rk3568/image_conf:custom_image_conf",
                "//vendor/hihope/rk3568/preinstall-config:preinstall-config",
                "//vendor/hihope/rk3568/resourceschedule:resourceschedule",
                "//vendor/hihope/rk3568/etc:product_etc_conf",
                "//vendor/hihope/rk3568/thermal/profile:thermal_service_config", // Add the configuration for building of thermal_service_config.
            ]
        }
    },
    "subsystem": "product_hihope"
}

In the preceding code, //vendor/hihope/rk3568/thermal/ is the folder path, profile is the folder name, and thermal_service_config is the build target.

Build the customized version by referring to Quick Start.
```
./build.sh --product-name rk3568 --ccache
```
Burn the customized version to the DAYU200 development board.

Debugging and Verification

Temperature simulation debugging is supported since OpenHarmony 5.0.0 Release. The following procedure implements temperature level transition through simulating temperature changes to verify the custom thermal control policy. Write the custom thermal_service_config.xml file by referring to the thermal_service_config.xml file in the default thermal control configuration folder.

After startup, run the following command to launch the shell command line:
```
hdc shell
```

Obtain the current thermal control information.

hidumper -s 3303 -a -a

The following is the reference thermal control result after customization:

-------------------------------[ability]-------------------------------

name: thermallevel	strict: 0	enableEvent: 1
name: popup	strict: 0	enableEvent: 0
name: test	strict: 0	enableEvent: 0

Stop automatic temperature reporting.

Run hidumper -s 3303 -a '-st [f] [...]' to specify whether to enable automatic temperature reporting. Where, … indicates any character. If f is 0, automatic temperature reporting is disabled. Otherwise, automatic temperature reporting is enabled.
```
$ hidumper -s 3303 -a '-st 0'


-------------------------------[ability]-------------------------------


----------------------------------ThermalService----------------------------------
Temperature reporting has been stopped.
```

Simulate temperature changes.

To trigger the thermal control policy, simulate a low temperature and then a high temperature. Run hidumper -s 3303 -a '-te [name] [num]' to report the simulated temperatures. In the command, name indicates the name of the temperature sensor, and num indicates its temperature. If there are multiple groups of name and num, multiple simulated temperatures are uploaded at the same time.

$ hidumper -s 3303 -a '-te battery 32000 charger 32000'


-------------------------------[ability]-------------------------------


----------------------------------ThermalService----------------------------------
Report temperature [ battery ]: 32000
Report temperature [ charger ]: 32000
$ hidumper -s 3303 -a '-te battery 39000 charger 39000'


-------------------------------[ability]-------------------------------


----------------------------------ThermalService----------------------------------
Report temperature [ battery ]: 39000
Report temperature [ charger ]: 39000

Obtain the current temperature level.

hidumper -s 3303 -a -l

The following shows the temperature level after the simulated temperatures are uploaded:

-------------------------------[ability]-------------------------------


----------------------------------ThermalService----------------------------------
name: base_safe level: 1
name: cold_safe level: 0
name: high_safe level: 0
name: screenoff_charge  level: 0
name: warm_5G   level: 0
name: warm_safe level: 0

View the thermal control node information.
```
cat /data/service/el0/thermal/config/process_ctrl
```
If the thermal control node information is as follows, the process_ctrl thermal control policy is effective:
```
3
```
