Hi Sebastian,

thanks for the review!

In its current state it does not look like data for DT. What
information is stored in this "config info"?

Truth is: I don't know. The format of this blob is neither disclosed nor even mentioned by publicly available datasheets.
As far as I can tell it is information about the battery used, most likely data on chemistry and design capacity of the pack.
Since this depends on the cell built into a device I'd expect it to be located in the DT.

+ cw_bat->bat_mode = MODE_BATTERY;
+ cw_bat->monitor_sec = CW2015_DEFAULT_MONITOR_SEC *
+ CW2015_TIMER_MS_COUNTS;
+
+ prop = of_find_property(node, PREFIX"voltage-divider", &length);
+ if (prop) {
+ length /= sizeof(u32);
+ if (length != 2) {
+ dev_err(dev, "Length of voltage divider array must be "
+ "2, not %u\n", length);
+ return -EINVAL;
+ }
+ ret = of_property_read_u32_index(node, PREFIX"voltage-divider",
+ 0, &data->divider_high);
+ if (ret) {
+ dev_err(dev, "Failed to read value of high side "
+ "voltage divider resistor: %d\n", ret);
+ return ret;
+ }
+ ret = of_property_read_u32_index(node, PREFIX"voltage-divider",
+ 1, &data->divider_low);
+ if (ret) {
+ dev_err(dev, "Failed to read value of low side "
+ "voltage divider resistor: %d\n", ret);
+ return ret;
+ }
+ }
+
+ ret = of_property_read_u32(node, PREFIX"divider-res2", &value);
+ if (ret < 0)
+ value = 0;
+ data->divider_low = value;
+
+ ret = of_property_read_u32(node, PREFIX"virtual-power", &value);
+ if (ret < 0)
+ value = 0;
+ cw_bat->bat_mode = value;

of_property_read_bool

+ ret = of_property_read_u32(node, PREFIX"monitor-interval", &value);
+ if (ret < 0)
+ dev_err(dev, "monitor-interval missing!\n");
+ else
+ cw_bat->monitor_sec = value * CW2015_TIMER_MS_COUNTS;
+
+ ret = of_property_read_u32(node, PREFIX"design-capacity", &value);
+ if (ret < 0) {
+ dev_err(dev, "design-capacity missing!\n");
+ data->design_capacity = 2000;
+ } else {
+ data->design_capacity = value;
+ }
+
+ of_property_read_u8(node, PREFIX"alert-level", &cw_bat->alert_level);
+ if (cw_bat->alert_level > 100) {
+ dev_err(dev, "invalid alert_level, clamping to 100 %%\n");
+ cw_bat->alert_level = 100;
+ }

This does not belong into DT.

Is there any interface that allows setting a hardware battery alert level? Or should I just drop it altogether?
