If yes, potentially we can add support for monitoring also in discharge state. Do we intend to change the file name then? Does the hardware support any monitoring in discharge state? I'm unable to get any readings, only frozen values (that never update) from what it had when it was charging. Here is TI confirmation that at least temperature monitoring won't work while discharging: http://e2e.ti.com/forums/p/8202/31818.aspx#31818 For this reason I consider BCI a charger. > Also adding the tested-on info could be helpful here. ok <snip> >> + case POWER_SUPPLY_PROP_VOLTAGE_NOW: >> + /* charging must be active for meaningful result */ >> + if (!is_charging) { > > How about putting a kern_info here?

There are 2 charging devices registered now, AC and USB, each returns it's state. This is what most other drivers do. I'll send v2 later, it will also have more accurate voltage formulas I got from TI. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-omap" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
