Subject[PATCH 0/2] Improve IPA mechanisms in low temperature state
Date
Hi all,

This patch set aims to address the issues present in IPA when the
temperature is below the first trip point and cooling devices are not
throttled.
The first patch adds a basic check of cooling devices power to keep the
internal statistics fresh. This allows to avoid issue when the statistics
cover very long period, because they were not maintained.
The second patch addressed an issue described in bugzilla [1], which is:
unnecessary updating cooling devices when their state has not changed
because they are not throttled. This update triggers sending an event,
which should be avoided. Thus, patch 2/2 adds a tracking mechanism if
the update was triggered and makes sure it will be done only once when
the temperature continue to stay below first trip point.

Regards,
Lukasz Luba
