Package: linux-image-armmp-lpae
Version: 5.10.103-1

On a freshly installed NanoPi NEO (sunxi 8) system running Bullseye 11.2 (all 
updates applied), the kernel is lacking the sun8i_thermal driver, preventing 
CPU temperature readings as well as thermal throttling operation.
Depending on system load and thermal environment (ambient temperature, 
enclosure, heatsink, etc.), this may lead to overheating and/or damage to the 
hardware.

# grep SUN8I_THERMAL /boot/config-5.10.0-12-armmp-lpae
# CONFIG_SUN8I_THERMAL is not set

Recompiling the kernel with that config option set to 'm' solved the issue 
(i.e. CONFIG_SUN8I_THERMAL=m), and I've been able to confirm that thermal 
throttling is indeed operational.


Would you be able to change that config option and push an updated package?

I figured I'd send a bug report 
sincehttps://wiki.debian.org/InstallingDebianOn/Allwinner  lists the NanoPi NEO 
as stable/untested and welcomes reports.

I believe other sun8i-based systems should be affected as well, but the NanoPi 
NEO is the only one I have around to play with.

Cheers,
