Message-ID: <bug-221681-62941@https.bugzilla.kernel.org/> (raw)
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=221681
Bug ID: 221681
Summary: hid_magicmouse: Bluetooth battery reporting stuck at
4% for Apple Magic Trackpad (USB-C) on Linux
7.0.0.22-generic
Product: Drivers
Version: 2.5
Hardware: All
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: Bluetooth
Assignee: linux-bluetooth@vger.kernel.org
Reporter: pageau.hunter.c@gmail.com
Regression: No
The hid_magicmouse driver incorrectly reports battery level as 4% for the
Apple Magic Trackpad (USB-C) when connected over Bluetooth.
The value appears to be a hardcoded default — it never updates, and no
battery-related activity appears in dmesg after the device connects.
This is distinct from the Magic Trackpad 2 USB battery fix merged before
Linux 7.0-rc3. That fix does not appear to cover the Bluetooth path.
DEVICE
Model: Apple Inc. Magic Trackpad (USB-C)
Serial: d0:c0:50:b8:66:86
Connect: Bluetooth HID v3.19 (UUID 0x1124, classic BT, not BLE)
KERNEL
7.0.0-22-generic (Ubuntu 26.04 LTS)
Driver: hid_magicmouse
Module:
/lib/modules/7.0.0-22-generic/kernel/drivers/hid/hid-magicmouse.ko.zst
srcversion: CB57FC5C3E5315DB93BD466
SYMPTOMS
/sys/class/power_supply/hid-d0:c0:50:b8:66:86-battery/capacity: 4
upower reports: percentage 4%, warning-level: critical, state: discharging
upower updated timestamp is current (not stale/1970 epoch)
dmesg on connect shows NO battery-related output from magicmouse driver:

No "battery" string appears anywhere in dmesg output filtered for

POWER SUPPLY UEVENT
POWER_SUPPLY_NAME=hid-d0:c0:50:b8:66:86-battery
POWER_SUPPLY_TYPE=Battery
POWER_SUPPLY_STATUS=Discharging
POWER_SUPPLY_PRESENT=1
POWER_SUPPLY_ONLINE=1
POWER_SUPPLY_CAPACITY=4
NOTES
- The device is rechargeable and was not actually at 4% (trackpad functions
normally with no low-battery behavior)
- bluetoothctl does not show a Battery Percentage line, which is expected
for HID-over-BT classic devices (not a regression)
- /sys/kernel/debug/hid/0005:004C:0324.004E/rdesc was not accessible
- lsmod confirms hid_magicmouse is loaded and bound to the device
EXPECTED
Battery level is polled from device and reported accurately in
/sys/class/power_supply/.../capacity
ACTUAL
Capacity stuck at 4% from connect time, never updated. Driver emits no
battery-related log output.
