It doesn’t matter here, you already define the _get_ API for just read the charger type from the saved value(uchger->type), so we can think the API to make uchger->type from UNKNOW to ONE KNOWN type is *detect*, because we don't need 2 separate API one for *get* type from HW and another one for *detect* from HW, only one API involve HW access is enough. - Detect: (write to and) read from HW to get the charger type, save to uchger->type; - Get: read the charger type from uchger->type. > > > to have the charger type and set uchger->type, then you no need to add > > the comments/description to limit it usage.
