@surajrv6
Download them, install them ( with pacman -U etc etc), update the grub by the way
And in grub menu select linux-test, you should have the entry now, let's hope that fix your problem
please, tell me when you read this and can test it so I can leave to see my mail XD
Okay :) I will let you know when I finish testing. No electricity at my place.. Laptop is also running low on battery...
Okay, I just now installed it. change_control_end_treshold file has appeared in BAT1 folder. I will test the charging process once the power comes back.
tell me when you can test :) it appear to be working.
PD: in my girlfriend's laptop the only numbers were working was 60, 80 and 90 I advice you
Okay, I am testing and side by side doing office work :)
I tried 60, 75 and now 77 and it seems to stop charging. I don't have time to sit near laptop. My laptop has led which turns orange while charging and white when not charging. I am currently relying on that... Charging look like stopped but status says charging(1 hr left)
I will test thoroughly, tomorrow..
sufficient for me
@klausenbusk
The patch used is in linux-amd aur
@egnappahz is the creator and know what was the patch.
It feels like the same thng that before, right?
Can you send the patch again having the next iteration with BAT1?
Mention the other patch to see if it "accelerates" the things and make easier to understand in the Linux mantainer part
Thanks to everybody helping, testing etc
I have been testing the patch too, it appear not to be generating any regression at all.
have you tested it a little more? @surajrv6
Sorry @userofryzen I didn't test much because you said the testing was sufficient :) I rarely use my laptop
Oh. Please. Be sure of the charging limit at least
@userofryzen,
Okay, i will test now and let you know in an hour..
I set the charging limit to 80% when the battery was 74%. here is the reading using upower as soon as battery reached 79% (charging stopped)
Please note that the laptop is pluged in all the time during the test

okey, thank you! here we have the tests so.. kristian, can you send the pach upstream?
@klausenbusk
Have you send the patches to Linux? or havent you time for this cause of exams or work?
I ask because the user surakrv6
I have been also checking the source code to see if changes have been added for the past couple of weeks :)
Here..
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/drivers/platform/x86/asus-wmi.c
@klausenbusk are you here?
Is there any news about this? or can't you do it now?
May be this thread have been missed by you for lost time or Idk.
Hi @userofryzen. I haven't got time to look at it and I don't like just adding every "battery name" (it is a "temporary" solution, we need a permanent solution).
okey, have you something on mind?
I think a recursive function that looks in every BAT x being x letters and numbers?
I don't know if it's efficient or not etc.. I hope someone can solves it
Someone beat me to it: torvalds/linux@9a33e37
Glad to hear it's implemented finally :)
It's going to become a loooong list if they keep those batterynames coming..
Hi,
for a proper implementation in TLP i need answers to the following questions:
- What are the valid values / the range for charge_control_end_threshold?
- May i assume that the threshold works exactly the same way – values, range, charge behaviour – for all ASUS laptops that expose
/sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/charge_control_end_threshold
?
2a. If not, how do I distinguish the variants e.g. in /sys/class/dmi/id/* - How do i check that asus_wmi is loaded – does /sys/module/asus_wmi exist?
- Is the battery always named BATx or else?
Hi
for a proper implementation in TLP i need answers to the following questions:
Is there any issue I can track?
What are the valid values / the range for charge_control_end_threshold?
0-100, but there is one report of it only supporting 60, 80 and 100
.
May i assume that the threshold works exactly the same way – values, range, charge behaviour – for all ASUS laptops that expose
/sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/charge_control_end_threshold
?
I don't know, but probably (if you ignore that one report).
How do i check that asus_wmi is loaded – does /sys/module/asus_wmi exist?
/sys/module/asus_wmi
does indeed exists.
Is the battery always named BATx or else?
The code is currently hard-coded to only create charge_control_end_threshold
if the battery name is BAT0
, BAT1
or BATT
.
Is there any issue I can track?
Well, yes ... here you are. I added another question there.
The wait is over: the stop charge threshold is implemented for TLP 1.4.
Please participate in the alpha test. All necessary information is here.
Have fun.
Asus UX3404VA supports only 60, 80, and 100 in the /sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/charge_control_end_threshold
file (as reported above).
Does anyone know that this is a hardware or software limitation? Do you have any workarounds to bypass it?
okey, I see that linux-amd kernel doesn't serve you, I will tell him to know if there is a possibilty of have other kernel but only with that patch.
Wait and let's hope that he can doi it.
