Linux power supply class
|
||||
========================
|
||||
|
||||
Synopsis
|
||||
~~~~~~~~
|
||||
Power supply class used to represent battery, UPS, AC or DC power supply
|
||||
properties to user-space.
|
||||
|
||||
It defines core set of attributes, which should be applicable to (almost)
|
||||
every power supply out there. Attributes are available via sysfs and uevent
|
||||
interfaces.
|
||||
|
||||
Each attribute has well defined meaning, up to unit of measure used. While
|
||||
the attributes provided are believed to be universally applicable to any
|
||||
power supply, specific monitoring hardware may not be able to provide them
|
||||
all, so any of them may be skipped.
|
||||
|
||||
Power supply class is extensible, and allows to define drivers own attributes.
|
||||
The core attribute set is subject to the standard Linux evolution (i.e.
|
||||
if it will be found that some attribute is applicable to many power supply
|
||||
types or their drivers, it can be added to the core set).
|
||||
|
||||
It also integrates with LED framework, for the purpose of providing
|
||||
typically expected feedback of battery charging/fully charged status and
|
||||
AC/USB power supply online status. (Note that specific details of the
|
||||
indication (including whether to use it at all) are fully controllable by
|
||||
user and/or specific machine defaults, per design principles of LED
|
||||
framework).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Attributes/properties
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
Power supply class has predefined set of attributes, this eliminates code
|
||||
duplication across drivers. Power supply class insist on reusing its
|
||||
predefined attributes *and* their units.
|
||||
|
||||
So, userspace gets predictable set of attributes and their units for any
|
||||
kind of power supply, and can process/present them to a user in consistent
|
||||
manner. Results for different power supplies and machines are also directly
|
||||
comparable.
|
||||
|
||||
See drivers/power/ds2760_battery.c and drivers/power/pda_power.c for the
|
||||
example how to declare and handle attributes.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Units
|
||||
~~~~~
|
||||
Quoting include/linux/power_supply.h:
|
||||
|
||||
All voltages, currents, charges, energies, time and temperatures in µV,
|
||||
µA, µAh, µWh, seconds and tenths of degree Celsius unless otherwise
|
||||
stated. It's driver's job to convert its raw values to units in which
|
||||
this class operates.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Attributes/properties detailed

|

|
||||
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Charge/Energy/Capacity - how to not confuse ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
|
||||
~ ~
|
||||
~ Because both "charge" (µAh) and "energy" (µWh) represents "capacity" ~
|
||||
~ of battery, this class distinguish these terms. Don't mix them! ~
|
||||
~ ~
|
||||
~ CHARGE_* attributes represents capacity in µAh only. ~
|
||||
~ ENERGY_* attributes represents capacity in µWh only. ~
|
||||
~ CAPACITY attribute represents capacity in *percents*, from 0 to 100. ~

|

|
||||
Postfixes:
|
||||
_AVG - *hardware* averaged value, use it if your hardware is really able to
|
||||
report averaged values.
|
||||
_NOW - momentary/instantaneous values.
|
||||
|
||||
STATUS - this attribute represents operating status (charging, full,
|
||||
discharging (i.e. powering a load), etc.). This corresponds to
|
||||
BATTERY_STATUS_* values, as defined in battery.h.
|
||||
|
||||
CHARGE_TYPE - batteries can typically charge at different rates.
|
||||
This defines trickle and fast charges. For batteries that
|
||||
are already charged or discharging, 'n/a' can be displayed (or
|
||||
'unknown', if the status is not known).
|
||||
|
||||
AUTHENTIC - indicates the power supply (battery or charger) connected
|
||||
to the platform is authentic(1) or non authentic(0).
|
||||
|
||||
HEALTH - represents health of the battery, values corresponds to
|
||||
POWER_SUPPLY_HEALTH_*, defined in battery.h.
|
||||
|
||||
VOLTAGE_OCV - open circuit voltage of the battery.
|
||||
|
||||
VOLTAGE_MAX_DESIGN, VOLTAGE_MIN_DESIGN - design values for maximal and
|
||||
minimal power supply voltages. Maximal/minimal means values of voltages
|
||||
when battery considered "full"/"empty" at normal conditions. Yes, there is
|
||||
no direct relation between voltage and battery capacity, but some dumb
|
||||
batteries use voltage for very approximated calculation of capacity.
|
||||
Battery driver also can use this attribute just to inform userspace
|
||||
about maximal and minimal voltage thresholds of a given battery.
|
||||
|
||||
VOLTAGE_MAX, VOLTAGE_MIN - same as _DESIGN voltage values except that
|
||||
these ones should be used if hardware could only guess (measure and
|
||||
retain) the thresholds of a given power supply.
|
||||
|
||||
VOLTAGE_BOOT - Reports the voltage measured during boot
|
||||
|
||||
CURRENT_BOOT - Reports the current measured during boot
|
||||
|
||||
CHARGE_FULL_DESIGN, CHARGE_EMPTY_DESIGN - design charge values, when
|
||||
battery considered full/empty.
|
||||
|
||||
ENERGY_FULL_DESIGN, ENERGY_EMPTY_DESIGN - same as above but for energy.
|
||||
|
||||
CHARGE_FULL, CHARGE_EMPTY - These attributes means "last remembered value
|
||||
of charge when battery became full/empty". It also could mean "value of
|
||||
charge when battery considered full/empty at given conditions (temperature,
|
||||
age)". I.e. these attributes represents real thresholds, not design values.
|
||||
|
||||
CHARGE_COUNTER - the current charge counter (in µAh). This could easily
|
||||
be negative; there is no empty or full value. It is only useful for
|
||||
relative, time-based measurements.
|
||||
|
||||
CONSTANT_CHARGE_CURRENT - constant charge current programmed by charger.
|
||||
CONSTANT_CHARGE_CURRENT_MAX - maximum charge current supported by the
|
||||
power supply object.
|
||||
INPUT_CURRENT_LIMIT - input current limit programmed by charger. Indicates
|
||||
the current drawn from a charging source.
|
||||
CHARGE_TERM_CURRENT - Charge termination current used to detect the end of charge
|
||||
condition.
|
||||
|
||||
CALIBRATE - battery or coulomb counter calibration status
|
||||
|
||||
CONSTANT_CHARGE_VOLTAGE - constant charge voltage programmed by charger.
|
||||
CONSTANT_CHARGE_VOLTAGE_MAX - maximum charge voltage supported by the
|
||||
power supply object.
|
||||
|
||||
CHARGE_CONTROL_LIMIT - current charge control limit setting
|
||||
CHARGE_CONTROL_LIMIT_MAX - maximum charge control limit setting
|
||||
|
||||
ENERGY_FULL, ENERGY_EMPTY - same as above but for energy.
|
||||
|
||||
CAPACITY - capacity in percents.
|
||||
CAPACITY_ALERT_MIN - minimum capacity alert value in percents.
|
||||
CAPACITY_ALERT_MAX - maximum capacity alert value in percents.
|
||||
CAPACITY_LEVEL - capacity level. This corresponds to
|
||||
POWER_SUPPLY_CAPACITY_LEVEL_*.
|
||||
|
||||
TEMP - temperature of the power supply.
|
||||
TEMP_ALERT_MIN - minimum battery temperature alert.
|
||||
TEMP_ALERT_MAX - maximum battery temperature alert.
|
||||
TEMP_AMBIENT - ambient temperature.
|
||||
TEMP_AMBIENT_ALERT_MIN - minimum ambient temperature alert.
|
||||
TEMP_AMBIENT_ALERT_MAX - maximum ambient temperature alert.
|
||||
TEMP_MIN - minimum operatable temperature
|
||||
TEMP_MAX - maximum operatable temperature
|
||||
|
||||
TIME_TO_EMPTY - seconds left for battery to be considered empty (i.e.
|
||||
while battery powers a load)
|
||||
TIME_TO_FULL - seconds left for battery to be considered full (i.e.
|
||||
while battery is charging)
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Battery <-> external power supply interaction
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
Often power supplies are acting as supplies and supplicants at the same
|
||||
time. Batteries are good example. So, batteries usually care if they're
|
||||
externally powered or not.
|
||||
|
||||
For that case, power supply class implements notification mechanism for
|
||||
batteries.
|
||||
|
||||
External power supply (AC) lists supplicants (batteries) names in
|
||||
"supplied_to" struct member, and each power_supply_changed() call
|
||||
issued by external power supply will notify supplicants via
|
||||
external_power_changed callback.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
QA
|
||||
~~
|
||||
Q: Where is POWER_SUPPLY_PROP_XYZ attribute?
|
||||
A: If you cannot find attribute suitable for your driver needs, feel free
|
||||
to add it and send patch along with your driver.
|
||||
|
||||
The attributes available currently are the ones currently provided by the
|
||||
drivers written.
|
||||
|
||||
Good candidates to add in future: model/part#, cycle_time, manufacturer,
|
||||
etc.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Q: I have some very specific attribute (e.g. battery color), should I add
|
||||
this attribute to standard ones?
|
||||
A: Most likely, no. Such attribute can be placed in the driver itself, if
|
||||
it is useful. Of course, if the attribute in question applicable to
|
||||
large set of batteries, provided by many drivers, and/or comes from
|
||||
some general battery specification/standard, it may be a candidate to
|
||||
be added to the core attribute set.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Q: Suppose, my battery monitoring chip/firmware does not provides capacity
|
||||
in percents, but provides charge_{now,full,empty}. Should I calculate
|
||||
percentage capacity manually, inside the driver, and register CAPACITY
|
||||
attribute? The same question about time_to_empty/time_to_full.
|
||||
A: Most likely, no. This class is designed to export properties which are
|
||||
directly measurable by the specific hardware available.
|
||||
|
||||
Inferring not available properties using some heuristics or mathematical
|
||||
model is not subject of work for a battery driver. Such functionality
|
||||
should be factored out, and in fact, apm_power, the driver to serve
|
||||
legacy APM API on top of power supply class, uses a simple heuristic of
|
||||
approximating remaining battery capacity based on its charge, current,
|
||||
voltage and so on. But full-fledged battery model is likely not subject
|
||||
for kernel at all, as it would require floating point calculation to deal
|
||||
with things like differential equations and Kalman filters. This is
|
||||
better be handled by batteryd/libbattery, yet to be written.
