If I revise the description in this way(using your clear explanation): ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The battery capacity changing course is like this: full: BATTERY_FULLY_CHARGED => POWER_SUPPLY_STATUS_FULL <unplug AC> high->low: BATTERY_DISCHARGING => POWER_SUPPLY_STATUS_DISCHARGING ~0%: DISCHARGING & FULLY_DISCHARGED => POWER_SUPPLY_STATUS_NOT_CHARGING <plug in AC> 0%~20%: FULLY_DISCHARGED => POWER_SUPPLY_STATUS_CHARGING 20%~: No flag => POWER_SUPPLY_STATUS_CHARGING For now, it is not exactly right to show the status as POWER_SUPPLY_STATUS_NOT_CHARGING when the battery is dry (FULLY_DISCHARGED) and AC is plugged in. Although the battery is in a low level, system works fine with the AC charging. It is better to say that the battery is charging. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ How about this? By the way, should I also revise the title?POWER_SUPPLY_STATUS_NOT_CHARGING is used for AC connected, but battery not charging (e.g. because battery temperature is out of acceptable range). If you are discharging use POWER_SUPPLY_STATUS_DISCHARGING. You should just ignore the FULLY_DISCHARGED bit in the status property. If you don't want to loose the information about fully discharged battery add POWER_SUPPLY_PROP_CAPACITY_LEVEL, which maps: BATTERY_FULLY_CHARGED => POWER_SUPPLY_CAPACITY_LEVEL_FULL FULLY_DISCHARGED => POWER_SUPPLY_CAPACITY_LEVEL_CRITICAL otherwise => POWER_SUPPLY_CAPACITY_LEVEL_NORMAL
Oops.
It looks like I misunderstand POWER_SUPPLY_STATUS_NOT_CHARGING.
As Daniel said before, we could just ignore FULLY_DISCHARGED.
So change like the
sbs-battery: fix power status when battery charging near
dry
POWER_SUPPLY_STATUS_NOT_CHARGING is used for AC connected, but
battery not charging (e.g. because battery temperature is out
of acceptable range).
When battery is charging near dry and BATTERY_FULL_DISCHARGED is set,
it is wrong to set as POWER_SUPPLY_STATUS_NOT_CHARGING.
Just use BATTERY_DISCHARGING to decide the power supply status is
discharging or charging.
if (ret & BATTERY_FULL_CHARGED)
val->intval = POWER_SUPPLY_STATUS_FULL;
- else if (ret & BATTERY_FULL_DISCHARGED)
- val->intval = POWER_SUPPLY_STATUS_NOT_CHARGING;
else if (ret & BATTERY_DISCHARGING)
val->intval = POWER_SUPPLY_STATUS_DISCHARGING;
