From e908c41806bdb9151c8f875c4f9d73c6f66e3bc8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ramakrishna Pallala Date: Thu, 5 Jul 2012 16:59:12 +0530 Subject: power_supply: Add min/max alert properties for CAPACITY, TEMP, TEMP_AMBIENT Minimum and maximum alerts on power supply properties will help or allow the user space to "proactively" create policies like connect/disconnect charger or stop/start the user apps based on capacity or temperature parameters. These parameters can be used to avoid unnecessary polling from user space and even from kernel space if the underlying HW can support INT triggers (ex: max17042/47). This patch adds the following power supply alert type properties: CAPACITY_ALERT_MIN CAPACITY_ALERT_MAX TEMP_ALERT_MIN TEMP_ALERT_MAX TEMP_AMBIENT_ALERT_MIN TEMP_AMBIENT_ALERT_MAX Signed-off-by: Ramakrishna Pallala Signed-off-by: Anton Vorontsov --- Documentation/power/power_supply_class.txt | 6 ++++++ 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+) (limited to 'Documentation/power') diff --git a/Documentation/power/power_supply_class.txt b/Documentation/power/power_supply_class.txt index c0f62ae2b5e..2f0ddc15b5a 100644 --- a/Documentation/power/power_supply_class.txt +++ b/Documentation/power/power_supply_class.txt @@ -119,11 +119,17 @@ CONSTANT_CHARGE_VOLTAGE - constant charge voltage programmed by charger.
