The controller has two USB ports, one for connecting to a mobile phone's data port and the other for connecting to a charger. After the controller is connected to the mobile phone, and then the charger is connected to the controller's charging port, the controller will report the controller's charging status to the mobile phone through the HID protocol (Usage Page: 0x85 - Battery System Page, Usage ID: 0x44).

For example, I executed the command "./uevents | grep AAA", where AAA is the device name. Then, when you unplug the charger, it will print "AAA POWER_SUPPLY_STATUS=Discharging", and when you plug in the charger, it will print "AAA POWER_SUPPLY_STATUS=charging".

We've already built two generations of this product, and this solution has proven to be feasible. However, when we requested this solution again for our third-generation product, Google disagreed. They said we should address the issue directly upstream! In other words, we should approach the Linux community to resolve the issue once and for all. They have a point, so I'm coming to you for help.

I sent a couple of patches that I think will solve your problem:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-input/20250804091215.6637-1-jose.exposito89@gmail.com/T/#md9f4924a4a5817fe6c0ff9474f8a5c0e36c9ee3b
Please compile and test them and let us know if the solution works
so we can merge the fix upstream.
If you find any problems, please provide a reproducer so I can debug it.
Thanks a lot in advance,
Jose
