The userspace governor is sending temperature when polling is active and trip point crossed events. Nothing else. AFAICT, this governor is used with custom kernels making the userspace governor co-existing with another governor on the same thermal zone because there was no notification mechanism, implying a hack in the framework to support this configuration. The new netlink thermal notification is able to provide more information than the userspace governor and give the opportunity to the users of this governor to replace it by a dedicated notification framework. The userspace governor will be removed as its usage is no longer needed. Add a warning message to tell the userspace governor is deprecated.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
