To retrieve thermal configuration and active mitigation levels, use ftrace logs. ## ftrace method To enable thermal ftace logs run the following commands: echo 1 > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/thermal/enableCopy to clipboard The following are the log snippets of different thermal events: /* In the following snippet, "cpu0-thermal" represents thermal zone and “temp” indicates existing temperature of thermal zone */ sh-1420 [001] ..... 1132975.934216: thermal_temperature: thermal_zone=cpu0-thermal id=13 temp_prev=47700 temp=110000 /*In the following snippet, “trip” indicates trip level and trip level 1 is triggered for cpu0-thermal thermal zone*/ sh-1420 [001] ..... 1132975.934449: thermal_zone_trip: thermal_zone=cpu0-thermal id=13 trip=1 trip_type=PASSIVE /*In the following snippet, “type” represents the cooling device and "target" represents active mitigation of the cooling device*/ sh-1420 [001] ..... 1132975.934473: cdev_update: type=idle-cpu0 target=100Copy to clipboard Note: The log snippet is for QCS6490/QCS5430. **Parent Topic:** [Thermal management](https://docs.qualcomm.com/doc/80-70015-30/topic/thermalmanagement.html) Last Published: Oct 16, 2024 [Previous Topic Customize](https://docs.qualcomm.com/bundle/publicresource/80-70015-30/topics/customize.md) [Next Topic References](https://docs.qualcomm.com/bundle/publicresource/80-70015-30/topics/references.md)
