+++ 1.10.0-alpha.1 --- <unreleased> +++

  * Development version

  * Features
    Battery Care:
    - Lenovo laptops (non-ThinkPad series and ThinkBooks):
      use the new charge_types sysfs attribute as of kernel 6.17.
      Support for the legacy interface in kernels < 6.17 has been split
      off into the additional plugin lenovo-legacy.
    - Laptops with Wilco EC (like Dell Chromebooks modded with custom UEFI
      firmware from MrChromebox.tech): start and stop threshold (Issue #838)
    - LG Gram laptops: remove support for kernels < 5.18 (lg-legacy plugin).
      Note: the lg plugin for kernel 5.18 and newer remains included.
    - ThinkPads:
      - Charge thresholds are not restored or changed by 'tlp start' or
        automatic operation while 'tlp discharge/recalibrate' is running
      - Streamline model detection
    - RESTORE_THRESHOLDS_ON_BAT: change default to enabled.
      If the charger is disconnected, for instance after a 'tlp fullcharge',
      then the configured charge thresholds will be automatically restored.
    - tlp-stat -b: on laptops that provide battery metrics in mA(h), calculate
      the equivalent in mW(h) and display it adjacently
    - tlp-stat -b -v: show battery serial number
    General:
    - Remove backward compatibility with /etc/default/tlp
    - tlp-stat -s:
      - "Power profile" renamed to "TLP profile" to distinguish it
        from similarly sounding kernel tunables
      - OS Release: fix parsing of Gentoo's /etc/os-release with '' quoting
    - Use 'daemon' facility for logging and trace
    Graphics:
    - Support Intel Xe graphics:
      - INTEL_GPU_POWER_PROFILE_ON_AC/BAT/SAV: SLPC power profile
      - INTEL_GPU_MIN/MAX_FREQ_ON_AC/BAT/SAV: min/max frequencies
    - RADEON_DPM_PERF_LEVEL_ON_SAV added (power-saver profile)
    - RADEON_DPM_STATE_ON_AC/BAT/SAV: *DEPRECATED* feature will be
      removed in TLP 1.11. Only affects the legacy driver radeon.
    - tlp-stat -g: show power_state for AMD and Nvidia GPUs
    - RUNTIME_PM_DRIVER_DENYLIST: add amdgpu, nvidia to default to
      facilitate hybrid GPU powerdown
    PCIe Devices:
    - tlp-stat -e: indicate when autosuspend is deactivated using
      RUNTIME_PM_ON_AC/BAT=""
    Power Profiles:
    - TLP_PROFILE_AC/BAT: customize automatic TLP profiles for AC and battery.
      For example, they can be changed to balanced on AC power and power-saver
      on battery power.
    - TLP_DEFAULT_MODE: renamed to TLP_PROFILE_DEFAULT
    - TLP_PERSISTENT_DEFAULT: *DEPRECATED* instead use TLP_AUTO_SWITCH=0
      together with TLP_PROFILE_DEFAULT to lock TLP to a fixed profile
    - Reversed the order of TLP's profiles in the desktop UI to match
      power-profiles-daemon's order
    - Rewrite of tlp-pd to use only GLib and no longer python-dbus
    - tlp-pd property BatteryAware now reflects TLP_AUTO_SWITCH
      (0=false, 1/2=true) and becomes de facto readonly,
      i.e. it discards written values
    Processor:
    - tlp-stat -p: section "+++ Platform profile" renamed to '+++ Platform"
    Radio Devices:
    - RESTORE_DEVICE_STATE_ON_STARTUP: *DEPRECATED* feature will be
      removed in TLP 1.11
  * Bugfixes
    Battery Care:
    - ThinkPads:
      - tlp discharge/recalibrate: catch reset during initialization
      - Fix detection of T580 with Libreboot
    Power Profiles:
    - tlpctl: recover --version

+++ 1.9.1 --- 07.01.2026 +++

* Bugfix Release
  Power Profiles (tlp-pd)
  - Fix Polkit Authentication Bypass in Profiles Daemon in Version 1.9.0
    (CVE-2025-67859)
    - https://security.opensuse.org/2026/01/07/tlp-polkit-authentication-bypass.html
    - Version 1.8.0 and older are not affected
    - Ensure that all processes that change the power profile or the daemon's
      log level are authenticated, either by a desktop user session or as root
    - Limit the number of stacked profile holds (tlpctl launch) to 16
    - Make profile hold cookies unpredictable, to prevent unrelated users
      from releasing an active profile hold

  Battery:
  - Fix RESTORE_THRESHOLDS_ON_BAT: consider the change to battery power,
    not the profile. Ensure even after suspension.

+++ 1.9.0 --- 01.12.2025 +++

+++ 1.9.0-beta.1 --- 05.11.2025 +++

  * Beta Release

  * Features
    Power Profiles:
    - tlp-pd: TLP Profiles Daemon is a new addition to TLP. It implements
      the D-Bus interface, which lets desktop environments show a
      power profile switch. Together with TLP as the backend for applying
      these profiles, it replaces power-profiles-daemon.
    - Introduce a third configuration profile for maximum power savings
      and make tlp-pd possible. The following are now available:
      - performance: parameters ending in _AC are used when AC power
        is connected or when the new command 'tlp performance' is run.
      - balanced: parameters ending in _BAT are used when operating
        on battery power or when the new command 'tlp balanced' is run.
      - power-saver: parameters ending in _SAV are used when the new command
        'tlp power-saver' is run. If there is no _SAV parameter available
        for a feature, the _BAT parameter will be used instead.
    - tlpctl: new command to switch between power profiles, launch applications
      with specific profiles and control tlp-pd.
      It offers a subset of powerprofilesctl's commands supplemented by
      TLP-specific shortcuts.
    - TLP_AUTO_SWITCH: controls the automatic switching of the power profile
      when the charger is connected or removed (even during a suspend).
      The Innovation (and new default) is a "smart" mode that can retain a
      manually selected profile when the power source changes.
    - Use the TLP_DEFAULT_MODE profile when automatic switching is disabled.
    - tlp-stat --pd-diag: show tlp-pd diagnostic
    - tlp: drop the commands 'false' and 'true', which have been superseded
      by 'ac' and 'bat' for ages
    Battery Care:
    - Tuxedo laptops supported by the clevo_acpi out-of-tree driver from
      tuxedo-drivers: start and stop threshold (Issue #803);
      only models with a Clevo ODM chassis are compatible,
      check the tlp-stat -b output to find out if yours is
    - tlp-stat -b: advertise chargeonce, discharge, recalibrate features
      individually
    General:
    - TLP_DISABLE_DEFAULTS: deactivate all intrinsic defaults so that
      only settings that have been explicitly activated are applied;
      helpful to use only selected features
    - tlp-stat -s: unified representation of tlp/tlp-rdw/tlp-pd's status
    - tlp-stat --trace-nm: show the journal entries for NetworkManager
      correlated with TLP's trace output, supplemented with device details
      for NetworkManager and rfkill
    - Response to invalid subcommands/options: output not only “Usage:”
      but also “Error:”
    Graphics:
    - New parameter for the power-saver profile: AMDGPU_ABM_LEVEL_ON_SAV

      - CPU_SCALING_MIN/MAX_FREQ_ON_SAV
      - CPU_MIN/MAX_PERF_ON_SAV
      - CPU_BOOST_ON_SAV
      - CPU_HWP_DYN_BOOST_ON_SAV
    - tlp-stat -p: add to display per core:
      - amd_pstate_lowest_nonlinear_freq, amd_pstate_max_freq
      - (-v) scaling_cur_freq (current core frequency)
      - (-v) amd_pstate_hw_prefcore, amd_pstate_prefcore_ranking
    - tlp-stat -t -v: show all individual temperature/fan sensors
    Radio Devices:
    - bluetooth/nfc/wifi/wwan: add command 'cycle', equivalent of 'toggle' twice
    - DEVICES_TO_DISABLE_ON_BAT_NOT_IN_USE: Fix the disabling of nfc
