The rn5t618 power driver fails to register a cooling device because POWER_SUPPLY_PROP_CHARGE_CONTROL_LIMIT_MAX is missing but availability is not checked before registering cooling device. After improved error checking in the thermal code, the registration of the power supply fails entirely. Checking for availability of _MAX before registering cooling device fixes the rn5t618 problem. But the whole logic feels questionable. First, the logic is inverted here: the code tells: max_current = max_cooling but 0 = max_cooling, so there needs to be some inversion in the code which cannot be found. Comparing with other cooling devices, it can be found that value for fan speed is not inverted, value for cpufreq cooling is inverted (similar situation as here lowest frequency = max cooling) Second, analyzing usage of _MAX: it is seems that maximum capabilities of charging controller are specified and not of the battery. Probably there is not too much mismatch in the drivers actually implementing that. So nothing has exploded yet. So there is no easy and safe way to specifify a max cooling value now. Conclusion for now (as a regression fix) just remove the cooling device registration and do it properly later on. Fixes: |
