The BIOS functions are translated into the appropriate microcontroller requests by the hardware specific drivers, like .Xr ykbec 4 . Currently only battery level, AC connection, and charging status are available from the .Nm device. Suspend/resume and other power events are not yet supported. .Pp The .Nm driver implements the following .Xr ioctl 2 calls. They are defined in .Aq Pa machine/apmvar.h . .Bl -tag -width Ds .\" .It Dv APM_IOC_STANDBY .\" .Em NOT YET SUPPORTED on loongson .\" .Pq Li "no parameters" .\" Request .\" .Dq standby .\" mode. .\" .It Dv APM_IOC_SUSPEND .\" .Em NOT YET SUPPORTED on loongson .\" .Pq Li "no parameters" .\" Request .\" .Dq suspend .\" mode. .It Dv APM_IOC_GETPOWER .Pq Li "struct apm_power_info" Request the current power state. The argument structure is as follows: .Bd -literal -offset indent struct apm_power_info { u_char battery_state; u_char ac_state; u_char battery_life; u_char spare1; u_int minutes_left; u_int spare2[6]; }; .Ed .Pp The following values are defined for .Va battery_state : .Bl -tag -width Ds .It Dv APM_BATT_HIGH Battery has a high state of charge. .It Dv APM_BATT_LOW Battery has a low state of charge. .It Dv APM_BATT_CRITICAL Battery has a critical state of charge. .It Dv APM_BATT_CHARGING Battery is not high, low, or critical and is currently charging. .It Dv APM_BATT_UNKNOWN Can not read the current battery state. .It Dv APM_BATTERY_ABSENT No battery installed. .El .Pp The following values are defined for .Va ac_state : .Bl -tag -width Ds .It Dv APM_AC_OFF External power not detected. .It Dv APM_AC_ON External power detected. .\" .It Dv APM_AC_BACKUP .\" Backup power in use. .\" .It Dv APM_AC_UNKNOWN .\" External power state unknown. .El .Pp The .Va battery_life value contains the estimated percentage of battery life available. 100% indicates a full charge. .Pp The .Va minutes_left value contains the estimated number of minutes of battery life remaining. .\" .It Dv APM_IOC_NEXTEVENT .\" .Em NOT YET SUPPORTED on loongson .\" .Pq Li "struct apm_event_info" .\" The .\" .Tn APM .\" driver stores up to .\" .Dv APM_NEVENTS .\" events. .\" This was defined as 16 at the time this documentation was written. .\" If the event list is full when a new event is detected the new event is lost. .\" .Dv APM_IOC_NEXTEVENT .\" ioctl returns the next event on the list or .\" .Er EAGAIN .\" if the event list is empty. .\" The format of the returned event is: .\" .Bd -literal -offset indent .\" struct apm_event_info { .\" u_int type; .\" u_int index; .\" u_int spare[8]; .\" }; .\" .Ed .\" where .\" .Va index .\" is a sequential count of events that can be used to check if any .\" events were lost and .\" .Va type .\" is one of: .\" .Pp .\" .Bl -tag -width Ds -offset indent -compact .\" .It Dv APM_STANDBY_REQ .\" .It Dv APM_SUSPEND_REQ .\" .It Dv APM_NORMAL_RESUME .\" .It Dv APM_CRIT_RESUME .\" .It Dv APM_BATTERY_LOW .\" .It Dv APM_POWER_CHANGE .\" .It Dv APM_UPDATE_TIME .\" .It Dv APM_CRIT_SUSPEND_REQ .\" .It Dv APM_USER_STANDBY_REQ .\" .It Dv APM_USER_SUSPEND_REQ .\" .It Dv APM_SYS_STANDBY_RESUME .\" .El .\" .It Dv APM_IOC_DEV_CTL .\" .Em NOT YET SUPPORTED on loongson .\" .Pq Li "struct apm_ctl" .\" Allows an application to directly set the .\" .Tm APM .\" operating mode. .\" The argument structure is as follows: .\" .Bd -literal -offset indent .\" struct apm_ctl { .\" u_int dev; .\" u_int mode; .\" }; .\" .Ed .\" .Pp .\" .Va dev .\" indicates the device, typically .\" .Dv APM_DEV_ALLDEVS . .\" .Pp .\" .Va mode .\" indicates the desired operating mode. .\" Possible values are .\" .Bl -tag -compact -offset indent .\" .It Dv APM_SYS_READY .\" .It Dv APM_SYS_STANDBY .\" .It Dv APM_SYS_SUSPEND .\" .It Dv APM_SYS_OFF .\" .It Dv APM_LASTREQ_INPROG .\" .It Dv APM_LASTREQ_REJECTED .\" .El .It Dv APM_IOC_PRN_CTL .Pq Li "int" This .Xr ioctl 2 controls message output by the .Nm driver when a power change event is detected.
