sysfs_light handles every case sanely already, no need to be cute ;).
This prevents always setting the warmth when setting the FL on NL
devices with a mixer, because, besides being useless, it's also slow
(lua does mmap'ed io, so every handle requires an fstat + mmap).
It was subtly affecting the fluidity of the toggle ramp, and much less
subtly wreaking havoc on #5373 ;).
KA1 owners might want to investigate keeping the fds around one way or
another, like we do for the fl ioctl, to alleviate the overhead of doing
that for not one but three or four fds...
I won't be doing that, since I lack the hardware to test it, and FL+NL
stuff is pain.
* Do the same on Cervantes
* Bump base to pickup related ioctl tweaks
When reasonably possible, the program should only crash in debug mode.
Adds a couple of extra unit tests to prevent regressions and adds docs.
Fixes <https://github.com/koreader/koreader/issues/5356>.
This commit standardizes the various todos around the code a bit in a manner recognized by LDoc.
Besides drawing more attention by being displayed in the developer docs, they're also extractable with LDoc on the command line:
```sh
ldoc --tags todo,fixme *.lua
```
However, whether that particular usage offers any advantage over other search tools is questionable at best.
* and some random beautification
on if it's off.
Because, on the KA1, since wetting the warmth *has* to set the
brightness, it could ;).
Patch only actually needed on Kobo, as all Cervantes devices with warmth
support have a mixer, which mean they *can* set the warmth without
affecting the brightness ;).
* Don't override hw_intensity when we start with the FL off
* And add an insane workaround to make the first toggle behave sanely in this case.
* And also handle the sneakier case where the first toggle happening would not be manual, but triggered by a suspend/resume cycle.
* Make hasNaturalLight* caps safe to call without a device check. (fix#4919)
Make it clear that it's expecting the NTX implementation, though.
* Don't turn the FL on on resume if it was off on suspend
* Make sure turnOn/turnOff actually updates hw_intensity in the process where it matters, instead of just in a short lived fork ;). (fix#4923)
Companion PR to https://github.com/koreader/koreader-base/pull/884
* Basically flags devices known to be stable when using PxP inversion.
* Plus, random fix for #4870 ;).
* A few FrontLight tweaks & cleanups on Kobo:
* Moved the Kobo-specific startup status insanity to Kobo-specific init
* Made turnOff/turnOn frontlight do a smooth ramp down/up
* On Kobo, use turnOff/turnOn for suspend/resume, to get that smooth toggle
* On Kobo, for NaturalLight w/ a mixer, only set warmth for setWarmth, and only set Brightness for setBrightness, otherwise, it tried to set both with not in-sync values, which made the FL widget jittery.
* Enforce a known rotation on startup, to make sure we handle touch input coordinates properly.
* Proper FrontLight warmth support (thanks to @cairnsh & @pazos in #4291)!
* Fix the PageTurn buttons mapping to match Nickel's defaults
* Properly remap PageTurn buttons depending on the current rotation.
* Actually enable the Mk.7 screen refresh codepath on *all* Mk.7 devices (I'd messed up the device check...).
* Full accelerometer handling (includes a touch of refactoring regarding orientation handling in general).
* Fix insidiously broken USBMS behavior in Nickel after we exit on FW >4.8.
Fix#4291Fix#3002
Add support in nickel_conf to save/retrieve setting of
'autoColorEnabled', which is the automatic warmth feature in
Nickel. We do not support reading of 'BedTime', because it is encoded
as a QVariant. This setting is hence saved/loaded solely in/from
G_reader_settings.
This is the first step to support "automatic warmth", meaning that
warmth will be set according to the current time. The user can set a
"bedtime" at which warmth should be maximal. Warmth will increase
towards approaching bedtime and decrease afterwards.
Add new members 'auto_warmth' and 'max_warmth_hour' which tell if this
feature is enabled and the "bedtime", resp. Add a method
'calculateAutoWarmth' which will set the current warmth according to
the current time. The progression is linear but not symmetrical: we
start 5h before "bedtime", but turn back warmth to '0' 2h after it, to
make sure that warmth is '0' in the morning.
For automatically setting warmth in the background we use the
backgroundrunner plugin, because not only is it more comfortable to
use, but we also cannot require 'uimanager' during device
initialization.
If the device has natural light support (currently only KA1), use the
sysfs interface instead of the ioctl-based one. It might also be
usable on other Kobo devices for setting brightness without natural
light, but since I cannot test this, this is currently restricted to
the KA1.
* frontlight on kobo: a few fixes
Rewritten to not update NickelConf on every change, and never
if KOBO_SYNC_BRIGHTNESS_WITH_NICKEL = false.
Reintroduce global settings frontlight_intensity and
is_frontlight_on to keep level and state across koreader
sessions.
Fix a few of the remaining issues on kobo light.
Ensure settings are saved when rebooting/powering off from
File browser.
* Ensure untoggle works when starting with light off
* Put back fl_min=0 as it is for all other devices (the idea
fl_min should be 1 and toggling managed some other way is
not implemented in current code).
* Fix a few frontlightwidget issues
* Use PluginShare to exchange data between plugins
* Remove legacy code in reader.lua and kobo/device.lua, and move KOBO_LIGHT_ON_START to kobo/powerd.lua
* A better sync config logic
* Consider kobo without hardware frontlight toggle
* update frontlight widget once toggle is tapped.
* Start battery stat plugin
* BatteryStat & kobolight
* Several minor improvements
* Remove a useless function
* flush settings
* Some review feedbacks
* Resolve review comments
* Remaining Minutes -> Remaining Hours
* Add dump_file
* typo
* realpath
* realpath on folder
* Remove useless os.time()
* Resolve review comments
* warning
* Add BatteryStat.debugging flag
* treat log as txt
* Minor improvement
* Charging hour should be positive
* Use warn instead of info
* onSuspend in Kobo
* Charging events for kobo and kindle
* More events
* dumpOrLog
* Warnings
* Typo
* More space
* Singleton
* slightly format change
* BatteryStat singleton
* Init
* Remove debugging flag
* sleeping percentage is still negative
* Read settings
* Do not need to change was_suspending and was_charging
* Typo
* Remove debugging flag
* Not charging should happen before suspend
* Resolve review comments
* was_suspend and was_charging should be updated each time in onCallback()
We pretty much always want to turn it off on suspend, and turn it on to
some measure on wakeup.
That, and nickel's FrontLightState is completely nonsensical on my device anyway...
* Drops support for mocking the frontlight setting internally which may
cause incorrect in-memory values.
* Adds new supported value for `KOBO_LIGHT_ON_START` (-2), which sets
'Kobo eReader.conf' as the source to update `settings.reader.lua`'s
brightness setting on startup, thus using the value from it
indirectly.
* Adds the `KOBO_SYNC_BRIGHTNESS_WITH_NICKEL` configuration variable
which updates 'Kobo eReader.conf' every time the brightness setting is
changed within koreader.
* Fixes missing call to save brightness when modifying via two-finger
swipe.
Closes#1523.
I've tested this on a N905C. I assume this implementation never
worked (since charge_now is supposed to show state of charge), but
it would be useful to get a confirmation.
This is a major overhaul of the hardware abstraction layer.
A few notes:
General platform distinction happens in
frontend/device.lua
which will delegate everything else to
frontend/device/<platform_name>/device.lua
which should extend
frontend/device/generic/device.lua
Screen handling is implemented in
frontend/device/screen.lua
which includes the *functionality* to support device specifics.
Actually setting up the device specific functionality, however,
is done in the device specific setup code in the relevant
device.lua file.
The same goes for input handling.
