Question about <index> #419

Closed rdiez closed 1 month ago

rdiez commented 12 months ago

In configuration file thermal-conf.xml, under <TripPoint>, <CoolingDevice>, there is an <index> element.

What is it used for?

Some examples on the Internet have sequential indexes 1, 2, and so on. Others skip values, like 1 and then 5.

Do they have to match some other index somewhere else?

Can you give some example of the element you are refering?

I see now that GitHub's Markdown ate some words. I am talking about the 2 <index> elements here:

<CoolingDevice>
  <index>1</index>
  <type>intel_powerclamp</type>
  <influence>100</influence>
  <SamplingPeriod>5</SamplingPeriod>
</CoolingDevice>

<CoolingDevice>
  <index>2</index>
  <type>Processor</type>
  <influence>80</influence>
  <SamplingPeriod>5</SamplingPeriod>
</CoolingDevice>

They are just to show order, not used for any relationship.
