[PATCH v6 3/6] dt-bindings: power: Introduce properties to present the battery OCV capacity table

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Some battery driver will use the open circuit voltage (OCV) value to look
up the corresponding battery capacity percent in one certain degree Celsius.
Thus this patch provides some battery properties to present the OCV table
temperatures and OCV capacity table values.

Changes from v5:
 - None.

Changes from v4:
 - Improve the description of ocv-capacity-table-n to make the order clear.

Changes from v3:
 - Split binding into one separate patch.
 - Rename ocv-capacity-table-temperatures to ocv-capacity-celsius.
 - Add some words to specify the OCV's unit.

Changes from v2:
 - Use type __be32 to calculate the table length.
 - Update error messages.
 - Add some helper functions.

Changes from v1:
 - New patch in v2.
