STRUCT AB8500_BM_DATA(9)

💖 NAME 💖

struct ab8500_bm_data — ab8500 battery management data. Bestie, this is the struct, the main character of the AB8500 battery management world 👑. It's basically the driver's whole brain: every battery parameter, every flag, every pointer it needs to keep track of, all chilling in one struct. Let's do a member-by-member vibe check 🧚:

• @bi — battery info, pulled straight from the device tree 🌳
• @temp_now — the present battery temperature, like, right now rn 🌡️
• @temp_interval_chg — temperature measurement interval, in s, when charging
• @temp_interval_nochg — temperature measurement interval, in s, when not charging
• @main_safety_tmr_h — safety timer for the main charger ⏰
• @usb_safety_tmr_h — safety timer for the usb charger
• @bkup_bat_v — the voltage which we charge the backup battery with
• @bkup_bat_i — the current which we charge the backup battery with
• @capacity_scaling — indicates whether capacity scaling is to be used
• @chg_unknown_bat — flag to enable charging of unknown batteries
• @enable_overshoot — flag to enable VBAT overshoot control
• @auto_trig — flag to enable auto adc trigger
• @fg_res — resistance of the FG resistor, in 0.1mOhm (yes, 0.1mOhm, read it again) 🔥
• @interval_charging — charge alg cycle period time when charging (sec)
• @interval_not_charging — charge alg cycle period time when not charging (sec)
• @temp_hysteresis — temperature hysteresis
• @maxi — maximization parameters
• @cap_levels — capacity in percent for the different capacity levels
• @chg_params — charger parameters
• @fg_params — fuel gauge parameters

Not me listing twenty members and still being obsessed 💅.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

Okay so here's the actual shape of it, copied exactly, no cap:

struct ab8500_bm_data {
    struct power_supply_battery_info *bi;
    int temp_now;
    int temp_interval_chg;
    int temp_interval_nochg;
    int main_safety_tmr_h;
    int usb_safety_tmr_h;
    int bkup_bat_v;
    int bkup_bat_i;
    bool capacity_scaling;
    bool chg_unknown_bat;
    bool enable_overshoot;
    bool auto_trig;
    int fg_res;
    int interval_charging;
    int interval_not_charging;
    int temp_hysteresis;
    const struct ab8500_maxim_parameters *maxi;
    const struct ab8500_bm_capacity_levels *cap_levels;
    const struct ab8500_bm_charger_parameters *chg_params;
    const struct ab8500_fg_parameters *fg_params;
 };

Notice how the last four are const pointers to other structs? Yeah, they're just referencing their friends, we love a collaborative queen 🫶.

Members

So the Members section here is, uh… empty. Like genuinely nothing in it 💀. Not me being lazy, I promise — that's just how the source page is. Everything you want is already up in NAME, so we ate anyway 🍓.
