Initialization creates a name "ds2760-battery.0.auto". It seems that name of that size will cause checking code in __thermal_cooling_device_register() from thermal_core.c to fail as it checks for names shorter than 20 chars: >>> >>> if (type && strlen(type) >= THERMAL_NAME_LENGTH) >>> return ERR_PTR(-EINVAL); >>> >>> A second problem seems to be with magician_supplicants list as "ds2760-battery.0" does not match in a test power_supply_am_i_supplied() in ds2760_battery_update_status() from drivers/power/supply/ds2760_battery.c .

Shortening the name let's say just to "ds2760" (with changes to arch files, w1 files and supply files), increasing THERMAL_NAME_LENGTH to let's say 32 (I don't know if this doesn't break something other) or just reverting to the old behavior? >>> >> >> If 20 is no longer the max thermal name then THERMAL_NAME_LENGTH should >> be changed. > > Yes it is that ".auto" addition to "ds2760-battery.0" makes 21 chars long string. With higher number (".10" onwards) it is 22 chars.

Is there some reason for disallowing "-" in a name? If not then I'm for removal (in other case we need to change ds2760-battery and others names). Increasing THERMAL_NAME_LENGTH to 22 should be just OK for ds2760 (but maybe not enough for others) I would increased it to 32 (nice number ;-) ). > >> >> As for the couple boards hard-coding "ds2760-battery.0", this is a >> problem that should be fix regardless of any fix we chose here as IDA is >> not guaranteed to return 0, so the battery could just as easily be >> called ds2760-battery.7.

Should suffice to change drivers/power/supply/power_supply_core.c __power_supply_is_supplied_by() for only first part of the string?

I argued against this revert as relying on sysfs names never changing should be considered ABI abuse and we should not hold back proper fixes for the sake of keeping a hack in user-space working.
