Fake Battery Module for the Linux kernel

This is a kernel for simulating multiple batteries on Linux. I use it for testing puposes on AxOS.

Careful while using it!!!

Loading the module

You can build the module with a simple make, and load it with insmod:

$ sudo insmod ./fake_battery.ko

Changing battery values via /dev/fake_battery

You can write values to /dev/fake_battery

$ echo 'charging = 0' | sudo tee /dev/fake_battery # set state to discharging
$ echo 'charging = 1' | sudo tee /dev/fake_battery # set state to charging
$ echo 'capacity0 = 77' | sudo tee /dev/fake_battery # set charge on BAT0 to 77%
$ echo 'capacity1 = 77' | sudo tee /dev/fake_battery # set charge on BAT1 to 77%
