Subject: Re: [PATCH v2 1/2] ACPI: battery: add unified battery hook mechanism for ACPI and SBS batteries
Date: Fri, 18 Sep 2026 17:59:24 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260918175925.43C271F000FF@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260918175052.85461-2-jordan@brough.org>
> drivers/acpi/battery.c provides a battery_hook_register()/unregister()
> mechanism that lets other drivers (e.g. platform and hwmon drivers
> exposing vendor-specific charge control) attach extra power_supply
> properties to an ACPI Control Method Battery (HID PNP0C0A).
>
> Some machines instead expose their battery through the ACPI Smart
> Battery System (HID ACPI0002, "SBS") driver in drivers/acpi/sbs.c,
> which has had no equivalent hook point.
>
> Extract the battery hooking implementation out of drivers/acpi/battery.c
> into a shared helper in drivers/acpi/battery_hook.c, built directly into
> the ACPI core (acpi.o). Both drivers/acpi/battery.c and drivers/acpi/sbs.c
> now register their power_supply devices with this shared hook
> infrastructure via battery_hook_add_battery() and
> battery_hook_remove_battery().
>
> This unifies the hooking interface across both battery drivers so
> callers only need to register a single struct acpi_battery_hook without
> needing to know or care whether the underlying hardware exposes a Control
> Method Battery or an SBS battery.
