Marco Casaroli 209f73ff0e drivers/power: Do not call gauge methods a driver did not implement.
Every BATIOC_* case in the gauge upper half calls dev->ops->X() after
checking only that the *argument* pointer is non-NULL.  The operations
themselves are optional -- max1704x.c implements four of the eight, and
the in-tree fake gauge leaves chipid and operate NULL -- so asking a gauge
for something it does not provide calls through a NULL pointer.

On ARM that is not a null dereference but a branch to address 0, which has
the Thumb bit clear: the core takes a usage fault with CFSR bit 17,
INVSTATE, escalated to a hard fault.  From userspace it looks like the
program stopped mid-run for no reason, and on a board whose assert path
delays before resetting it looks like a hang.

Guard all eight.  A missing method is now ENOTTY, which is what the default
case already returns for an unrecognised command and what a caller can
sensibly probe for.

Tested on sim:nsh with the fake gauge and a local test app.  Before the
change, ioctl(BATIOC_CHIPID) kills the simulator with SIGSEGV.  After the
change, BATIOC_CHIPID and BATIOC_OPERATE return ENOTTY and
BATIOC_VOLTAGE still returns the voltage.  nucleo-f412zg:nsh with
BATTERY_GAUGE, MAX1704X, BQ27426 and BATTERY_FAKE_GAUGE builds.

Apache NuttX is a real-time operating system (RTOS) with an emphasis on standards compliance and small footprint. Scalable from 8-bit to 64-bit microcontroller environments, the primary governing standards in NuttX are POSIX and ANSI standards. Additional standard APIs from Unix and other common RTOSs (such as VxWorks) are adopted for functionality not available under these standards, or for functionality that is not appropriate for deeply-embedded environments (such as fork()).

For brevity, many parts of the documentation will refer to Apache NuttX as simply NuttX.

Getting Started

First time on NuttX? Read the Getting Started guide! If you don't have a board available, NuttX has its own simulator that you can run on terminal.

Documentation

You can find the current NuttX documentation on the Documentation Page.

Alternatively, you can build the documentation yourself by following the Documentation Build Instructions.

The old NuttX documentation is still available in the Apache wiki.

Supported Boards

NuttX supports a wide variety of platforms. See the full list on the Supported Platforms page.

If you wish to contribute to the NuttX project, read the Contributing guidelines for information on Git usage, coding standard, workflow and the NuttX principles.
