NVIDIA’s SOC THERM hardware takes care of the thermal management on their Tegra chips. Originally, the hardware was managed on the software side by a library. We were tasked with documenting this library and eventually converting it into a platform driver. At the conclusion of our project, we were able to convert the SOC THERM library so that it conformed with the upstream Linux kernel standard for platform drivers.
