I'm guessing that you mean "DT bindings for the DT-based virtual sensor driver introduced by a subsequent patch" or something like this. I also guess that the purpose is to allow the platform designer to tell the kernel that some sensors need to be aggregated in order to get useful information from them and how to aggregate them. Otherwise it would be hard to say why the aggregation needed to take place in the kernel. Moreover, the aggregation functions supported by this series are somewhat simple and I'm not sure if they are really sufficient in practice. > The virtual sensor could be used to a temperature computed from > many thermal sensors. > > Signed-off-by: Alexandre Bailon <abailon@baylibre.com> Admittedly, I'm not a DT bindings expert, so if I say something blatantly silly below, sorry about that. > --- > .../thermal/virtual,thermal-sensor.yaml | 67 +++++++++++++++++++ > include/dt-bindings/thermal/virtual-sensor.h | 15 +++++ > 2 files changed, 82 insertions(+) > create mode 100644 Documentation/devicetree/bindings/thermal/virtual,thermal-sensor.yaml > create mode 100644 include/dt-bindings/thermal/virtual-sensor.h > > diff --git a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/thermal/virtual,thermal-sensor.yaml b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/thermal/virtual,thermal-sensor.yaml > new file mode 100644 > index 0000000000000..848b5912c79f1 > --- /dev/null > +++ b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/thermal/virtual,thermal-sensor.yaml > @@ -0,0 +1,67 @@ > +# SPDX-License-Identifier: (GPL-2.0-only OR BSD-2-Clause) > +# Copyright 2021 BayLibre > +%YAML 1.2 > +--- > +$id: http://devicetree.org/schemas/thermal/thermal-sensor.yaml# > +$schema: http://devicetree.org/meta-schemas/core.yaml# > + > +title: Virtual thermal sensor binding > + > +description: | > + The virtual thermal sensor devices provide temperature sensing capabilities > + based on hardware thermal sensors.

This adds the device tree bidings for the virtual thermal sensor. The virtual sensor could be used to a temperature computed from many thermal sensors.
