Abstract
The entropy principle shows that, for self-gravitating perfect fluid, the Einstein field equations can be derived from the extrema of the total entropy, and the thermodynamical stability criterion are equivalent to the dynamical stability criterion. In this paper, we recast the dynamical criterion for the charged self-gravitating perfect fluid in Einstein–Maxwell theory, and further give the criterion of the star with barotropic condition. In order to obtain the thermodynamical stability criterion, first we get the general formula of the second variation of the total entropy for charged perfect fluid case, and then obtain the thermodynamical criterion for radial perturbation. We show that these two stability criterions are the same, which suggest that the inherent connection between gravity and thermodynamic even when the electric field is taken into account.

Appendix A: Explicit expression for each term of \(\delta ^2S\)
In this appendix, we would give the explicit expression of \(\delta ^2S\) in spherical symmetric case. Note that in the following calculation, we use the integration by parts and drop the boundary terms, and also consider that the Tolman’s law is also valid, \(T^{-1}=\chi =e^{\Psi }\). We denote that the n-th term of the right hand of Eq. (35) as \(P_n\), and simply write the integral \(\int _0^R dr\) as \(\int _r\). Together with Eqs. (36) and (38), we obtain
Considering Eq. (12) and the relation \(\Phi '=-e^{\Psi +\Lambda }\frac{Q}{r^2}\), we get
and
The fourth term \(P_4\) and the fifth term \(P_5\) can easily be showed as
Using Eqs. (39), we have
Together with Eqs. (14) and (40), we get
And Eq. (37) yields
