  Right, then you know you have the right regulator :)

 Once we switch it off it is expected, but then if it is *switched on*
 it is expected that we should be able to access registers. Here there
 is an abort accessing these registers. 

Most likely you need to also reconfigure the registers or
re-enable the clock or reset it at the interconnect too.

  After discussing with hardware team, it is confirmed that this
  LDO9 regulator powering RTC cannot be turned off when
  SoC is active and expected to be always on.
  
  Hmm but sounds like you already proved it can be idled? So
  the regulator really should be managed by the driver?

 Actually I adapted the driver to support a power regulator.
 Then I observed that if rtc is loaded as  a module there is
 an abort(  which is happening because the regulator is disabled
 once and re-enabled). So when we checked with the hardware team,
 they confirmed that ldo9 should not be disabled. 

Hmm so how is it enabled initially then?

To me it sounds like very standard stuff to reinitialize
a driver for any omap device when waking from suspend or
returning from off-idle. If the RTC device cannot be reset,
idled and re-initialized properly, there's something wrong
with the RTC driver, clocks, regulators, or hwmod data for
that device.

Tony

Tony,

Lokesh and i tried disabling the ldo9 regulator and then re-enabling it
post boot via driver as well as through I2C tools. Once we disable and 
re-enable

we see that we can not access the RTC related registers any further.
So we checked with the hardware team and they confirmed that it should
never be disabled.

Keerthy

Well the dts entries should describe the hardware. If the
regulator can be enabled and disabled, we should not claim it's
always on.

Also adding temporary dts entries just causes more churn on the

From the PMIC perspective every regulator can be enabled and
disabled. From a Board perspective there are some which need
to be always on. For Ex: SMPS123 which feeds on to the MPU.

I guess RTC also needs the supply to be on as long as we want
the clock to be ticking.

 Is this regulator really always on?
 This feeds on to RTC which is a free running clock. So i guess always on is
 justified no?
 Well the dts entries should describe the hardware. If the
 regulator can be enabled and disabled, we should not claim it's
 always on.
 
 From the PMIC perspective every regulator can be enabled and
 disabled. From a Board perspective there are some which need
 to be always on. For Ex: SMPS123 which feeds on to the MPU.

Right, and we already have regulator-boot-on for those. Or are
you seeing some issue with that?

 I guess RTC also needs the supply to be on as long as we want
 the clock to be ticking.

Sure, but if somebody wants shut it off regulator-boot-on is
better from driver point of view.

Tony

regulator-boot-on describes that at boot a particular regulator is on.
It does not guarantee that it will be on for the rest of the time. The
regulator framework can go ahead and disable it if no one has requested
for it. In case of RTC we do not want that to happen.

That's a bug in the RTC driver then. The driver should request a
regulator if it's specified.
