[lotus-zephyr] Bug in power slider mode management

DHowett opened this issue · comments

I think the code here is wrong as of 42ec4cc.

if (force_no_adapter || (!extpower_is_present()) || (active_mpower < 55000)) {
active_mpower = 0;
if (mode > EC_DC_BATTERY_SAVER)
mode = mode << 4;
}

mode = mode << 4 will produce out-of-range values for the AC modes: EC_AC_BEST_PERFORMANCE will become 256 (16 << 4), EC_AC_BALANCED (32) will become 512, etc.

Reading the condition, it looks like we want to treat low-power AC (AC < 55W) as the same as DC.
I would expect that to downgrade EC_AC_BEST_PERFORMANCE to EC_**DC**_BEST_PERFORMANCE (as an example).

If that's the case, I suspect mode >> 4 is what you want. That reduces EC_AC_BEST_PERFORMANCE to 1 (16 >> 4)... which happens to match the value for EC_DC_BEST_...
