According to my syslog, upowerd crash always follows a power_supply
error, so I thought there must be some connection:
Mar 10 02:59:45 dev kernel: [ 160.051819] power_supply
hid-00:12:a1:68:a3:1b-battery: driver failed to report `capacity' property: -5
Mar 10 02:59:45 dev kernel: [ 160.137237] do_trap: 66 callbacks suppressed
Mar 10 02:59:45 dev kernel: [ 160.137248] traps: upowerd[1502] trap int3
ip:7f2c0c1b92b5 sp:7fff26f6c440 error:0
If you look into linux-*/drivers/power/power_supply_sysfs.c, you can
easily find the suspect:
ssize_t ret = 0;
...
if (off == POWER_SUPPLY_PROP_TYPE)
value.intval = psy->type;
else
ret = psy->get_property(psy, off, &value);
if (ret < 0) {
if (ret == -ENODATA)
dev_dbg(dev, "driver has no data for `%s' property\n",
attr->attr.name);
else if (ret != -ENODEV)
dev_err(dev, "driver failed to report `%s' property:
%zd\n",
attr->attr.name, ret);
return ret;
}
Here, "ret" is assigned only once, which means psy->get_property()
returns -EIO (-5).
psy->get_property() is actually calls hidinput_get_battery_property()
from linux-*/drivers/hid/hid-input.c:
battery->get_property = hidinput_get_battery_property;
And the only place in hidinput_get_battery_property where we can get
-EIO is:
case POWER_SUPPLY_PROP_CAPACITY:
ret = dev->hid_get_raw_report(dev, dev->battery_report_id,
buf, sizeof(buf),
dev->battery_report_type);
...
break;
... and my knowledge isn't enough to dig a little deeper ;)
So, as a temporary solution I've recompiled kernel with commented out
CONFIG_HID_BATTERY_STRENGTH and it works perfectly.
