Hi, I'm currently running Linux 2.6.35.4 on a COMexpress module made by Kontron. I am having problems getting events about newly inserted/removed batteries on the sysfs interface. The module has 2 battery slots and one AC/DC adapter (which are correctly detected by the kernel at boot time). Everything is correctly detected at boot time, problems appear when removing or inserting a battery in one of the two slots once the system is up and running. First, if I remove a battery that was present at boot time, it's sysfs interface isn't removed (it stays there with the last info that was read from the battery) and second, if I add a new battery it's sysfs interface is not created. I also noticed that reading the battery state from procfs (/proc/acpi/battery/BAT[12]/state) seems to trigger the update of both the procfs and sysfs interface. So previously undetected batteries now appear in sysfs and absent batteries are removed. So, is there a way to update the batteries sysfs interface without having someone poking at procfs all the time?
