Oops.
It looks like I misunderstand POWER_SUPPLY_STATUS_NOT_CHARGING.
As Daniel said before, we could just ignore FULLY_DISCHARGED.
So change like the
sbs-battery: fix power status when battery charging near
dry
POWER_SUPPLY_STATUS_NOT_CHARGING is used for AC connected, but
battery not charging (e.g. because battery temperature is out
of acceptable range).
When battery is charging near dry and BATTERY_FULL_DISCHARGED is set,
it is wrong to set as POWER_SUPPLY_STATUS_NOT_CHARGING.
Just use BATTERY_DISCHARGING to decide the power supply status is
discharging or charging.
if (ret & BATTERY_FULL_CHARGED)
val->intval = POWER_SUPPLY_STATUS_FULL;
- else if (ret & BATTERY_FULL_DISCHARGED)
- val->intval = POWER_SUPPLY_STATUS_NOT_CHARGING;
else if (ret & BATTERY_DISCHARGING)
val->intval = POWER_SUPPLY_STATUS_DISCHARGING;
