Subject: [PATCH v2 0/8] Add sysfs entry for system load control
Date: Tue, 1 Sep 2026 21:35:07 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1788290289.git.waqar.hameed@axis.com> (raw)

During discussions of the development of a new driver [1], it was
concluded that a new `sysfs` ABI for controlling the connection from
power to system load is wanted. This patchset introduces this.

There are already several drivers that are controlling this, but with
their own custom `sysfs` entries. The drivers in this patchset were find
with a simple `grep` for `bat\s?fet` (there might be more?), and then
converted to use this new `sysfs` ABI. The old custom ABIs are left
untouched of course, for backward compatibility.

Changes in v2:

* Drop already merged patches (picked up by Sebastian in v1).
* Pack `struct power_supply_desc` so that an extra member doesn't
  increase the size unnecessarily too much.
* Use `power_supply_show_enum_with_available()` for
  `POWER_SUPPLY_LOAD_SWITCH`.
* Drop commit for selftest since properties using
  `power_supply_show_enum_with_available()` don't have any helper test
  functions. Should we add this (in a separate patch set)? I'll others
  decide if it's worth the churn...
* Add implementation for bq25630.
