Software Functional Overview

An optimally designed system that uses several SCI events can notify the OS of thermal increase or decrease by raising an interrupt every several degrees. This enables the OS to anticipate _ACx, PSV, or _CRT events and incorporate heuristics to better manage the systems temperature.The operating system can request that the hardware change the priority of active cooling vs passive cooling.

zDynamically Changing Cooling Temperatures

An OEM can reset _ACx and _PSV and notify the OS to reevaluate the control methods to retrieve the new temperature settings. The following three causes are the primary uses for this thermal notification:

−When a user changes from one cooling mode to the other.

−When a swappable bay device is inserted or removed. A swappable bay is a slot that can accommodate several different devices that have identical form factors, such as a CD-ROM drive, disk drive, and so on. Many mobile PCs have this concept already in place.

−When the temperature reaches an _ACx or the _PSV policy settings

In each situation, the OEM-provided AML code must execute a Notify ( thermal_zone, 0x80) statement to request the OS to re-evaluate each policy temperature by running the _PSV and _ACx control methods.

„Resetting Cooling Temperatures from the User Interface

When the user employs the UI to change from one cooling mode to the other, the following occurs:

1.The OS notifies the hardware of the new cooling mode by running the Set Cooling Policy (_SCP) control method.

2.When the hardware receives the notification, it can set a new temperature for both cooling policies and notify the OS that the thermal zone policy temperatures have changed.

3.The OS re-evaluates _PSV and _ACx.

„Resetting Cooling Temperatures to Adjust to Bay Device Insertion or Removal

The hardware can adjust the thermal zone temperature to accommodate the maximum operating temperature of a bay device as necessary. For example,

1.Hardware detects that a device was inserted into or removed from the bay and resets the _PSV and/or _ACx and then notifies the OS of the thermal and device insertion events.

2.The OS reenumerates the devices and reevaluates _PSV and _ACx.

„Resetting Cooling Temperatures to Implement Hysteresis

An OEM can build hysteresis into platform thermal design by dynamically
