Dell laptops support setting the battery charge start and stop thresholds, similar to support that is offered for other laptops through the `/sys/class/power_supply/BAT*/charge_*_threshold` API, but requires using Dell's Command Configure toolkit ( https://www.dell.com/support/manuals/il/en/ilbsdt1/command-configure-v4.2/dcc_ig_4.2/introduction-to-dell-command-configure-42 ). For example, one can set the battery charging start and stop threshold using the command `/opt/dell/dcc/cctk --primarybatterycfg=custom:50-80` (there is also a default "standard" profile that can be used instead of "custom"). As far as I understand the Dell tool is using SMBIOS to set the the charge threshold. It would be great if the kernel can support Dell devices in a similar way it supports other devices - this would allow standard system tools such as the new Plasma battery configuration feature ( https://invent.kde.org/plasma/powerdevil/-/merge_requests/5 ).
