Subject: [PATCH v2 0/3] ChromeOS Embedded Controller charge control driver

Add a power supply driver that supports charge thresholds and behaviour
configuration.

This is a complete rework of
"platform/chrome: cros_ec_framework_laptop: new driver" [0], which used
Framework specific EC commands.

The driver propsed in this series only uses upstream CrOS functionality.

Tested on a Framework 13 AMD, Firmware 3.05.

Changes in v2:
- Accept "0" as charge_start_threshold
- Don't include linux/kernel.h
- Only bind to the first found battery
- Import EC_CMD_CHARGE_CONTROL v3 headers
- Add support for v1 and v3 commands
- Sort mfd cell entry alphabetically
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/[email protected]

Subject: [PATCH v2 2/3] power: supply: add ChromeOS EC based charge control driver

The ChromeOS Embedded Controller implements a command to control charge
thresholds and behaviour.

Use it to implement the standard Linux charge_control_start_threshold,
charge_control_end_threshold and charge_behaviour sysfs UAPIs.

The driver is designed to be probed via the cros_ec mfd device.

I've tested this out on the Framework Laptop 13, 11th gen intel core
and AMD Ryzen 7040 editions.

The problem is that the AMD framework laptop *reports* support for the
CrOS charge controller, but it does not truly support it.
As with the 11th Gen Intel Core (and by proxy the 12th, 13th) it still
does require the OEM-specific command.

This is evinced by a mismatch between the firmware-configured value
and the value reported by the charge control subsystem through this
driver.

$ cat /sys/class/power_supply/BAT1/charge_control_end_threshold
100

$ ectool raw 0x3E03 b8 # OEM command 0x3E03 with BIT(3) in the payload
is Framework's charge limit query host command
Read 2 bytes
50 00 |P. |
(in my case, 80 in decimal)

The charge limit is managed at [1], and it does not appear to
integrate with the standard charge control machinery.

I'll pursue getting this board not to report support for CrOS charge
control. This driver is still entirely fit for purpose, just not for
this board.

Cheers,
d

This is surpising, it works on my machine, which is also a AMD 7040.

Can you try disabling all of the Framework-specific charge control
settings and test again?
Probably the different, disparate logics in the Framework ECs are
conflicting with each other.

Fascinating! This board does indeed support charge limiting through
both interfaces. It looks like the most recently set one wins for a
time.

The UEFI setup utility only sets the framework-specific charge limit value.

We should probably find some way to converge them, for all of the
supported Framework Laptop programs.

If it is the most recent one, shouldn't the driver have worked?
What does "for a time" mean?
I'm using only the upstream EC command and that seems to work fine.

In the long term, Framework should align their implementation with
upstream CrOS EC and either drop their custom command or make it a thin
wrapper around the normal the upstream command.

(As you are familiar with EC programming maybe you want to tackle this?)

Until then I think we can detect at probe-time if the Framework APIs are
available and use them to disable the Framework-specific mechanism.
Then the CrOS EC commands should be usable.

The drawback is, that userspace using the Framework APIs will break
the driver. That userspace would need to migrate to the standard UAPI.

Also the settings set in the firmware would be ignored at that point.

I don't want to use the functionality of the Framework command because
it's less featureful and I really hope it will go away at some point.

How does userspace access the Framework APIs? Surely it needs to go
through the kernel? Could you "filter" the userspace calls to block them?

For example this is something that currently happens in the dell-pc
driver to block userspace from doing thermal calls and instead guide
people to the proper API that the driver exports.

Please use devm_add_action_or_reset() or introduce
devm_battery_hook_register(), which could also be used by
dell-wmi-ddv. Otherwise LGTM.

+Matt, the Linux support lead for Framework.

Hi Matt,

below we are discussing on how to implement charge controls for ChromeOS
EC devices including Framework laptops in mainline Linux.
Some feedback would be great.

This would work when userspace uses /dev/cros_ec.
But the EC can also used via raw port IO which wouldn't be covered.
Given that /dev/cros_ec wasn't usable on Framework AMD until v6.9 it's
not unlikely users are using that.

And technically both aproaches would break userspace.

Another aproach would be to not load the module on Framework devices
which implement their custom command (overwritable by module parameter).

Framework unifies the implementation of their command with the core
CrOS EC logic so both commands work on the same data.
The custom command is adapted to also implement a new command version.
This is completely transparent as the old version will continue to work.

We update the Linux driver to recognize that new command version, know
that they are now compatible and probe the driver.

Newer devices could also drop the custom command and the driver would
start working.

This scheme requires some cooperation from Framework, though.
