 We could always add a callback for the driver to handle any custom
 properties...  one of the advantages of an OS like Linux is that we can
 improve the core code.

I thought about this - adding a callback, called on each child in
regulator_of_get_init_data(). However the reason behind this callback is
to parse GPIO and set config.ena_gpio. However in that context the
regulator_config is const so the callback cannot change it. Unless it
casts it to non-const... which isn't what we want I think.

So now I wonder whether adding generic bindings for ena_gpio make sense.
These would look like bindings for fixed-regulator (with ena- prefix).
Unfortunately this would duplicate a little the ena_gpio in
regulator_config... but to me it seems more appropriate.

What do you think about adding generic bindings for ena_gpio?

Best regards,
Krzysztof

Well, if you only want this for enable GPIO control (sorry, I'm really
not reading a lot of these long threads when it looks like there'll be a
resubmit anyway) we can always add a way for drivers to specify the name
of a property to look at easily enough.

   This would work but I don't like it. The properties of a regulator are

 Mmm, but doesn't it make more sense to have them in the child nodes?

Yes, it makes more sense. Using old way of parsing regulators from DT it
was straightforward.

However new DT style parsing (regulator_of_get_init_data()) does the
basic parsing stuff and this removes a lot of code from driver. The
driver no longer parses all regulaotrs but the regulator core does it.
Unfortunately regulator core does not parse custom bindings (like such
GPIOs) so I would have to iterate once again through all regulators just
to find gpios property.

It is simpler just to do something like (5 regulators can be controlled
by GPIO):

max77686_pmic_dt_parse_gpio_control(struct platform_device *pdev, *gpio)
{
  gpio[MAX77686_LDO20] = of_get_named_gpio(np, ldo20-gpios, 0);
  gpio[MAX77686_LDO21] = of_get_named_gpio(np, ldo21-gpios, 0);
  gpio[MAX77686_LDO22] = of_get_named_gpio(np, ldo22-gpios, 0);
  gpio[MAX77686_BUCK8] = of_get_named_gpio(np, buck8-gpios, 0);
  gpio[MAX77686_BUCK9] = of_get_named_gpio(np, buck9-gpios, 0);
}

 Besides if the bindings of this driver have already been published,
 I'm afraid you will have to maintain backward compability.

These are new bindings. Driver exists but I am adding new

Mark, what device should be assigned to config.dev during registration
of regulators? The regulator driver's device or its parent (MFD main

Various drivers do this differently.

 2. Cannot request some GPIO more than once.

We have been confronted to this problem with the regulator core as well:

http://marc.info/?l=linux-arm-kernelm=140417649119733w=1

I have a draft patch that allows GPIOs to be requested by several
clients. What prevented me from submitting it was that I wanted to
make sure the different requested configurations were compatible, but
maybe I am overthinking this. There are also a couple of other patches
that this depends on (like removal of the big descs array), so I don't
think it will be available too soon, sadly.

So maybe your best shot for now is to keep using the integer API, as
much as I hate it. Once we become able to request the same GPIO
several times, you should be good to switch to descriptors. Sorry this
has not been done faster.

 http://marc.info/?l=linux-arm-kernelm=140417649119733w=1
 
 I have a draft patch that allows GPIOs to be requested by several
 clients. What prevented me from submitting it was that I wanted to
 make sure the different requested configurations were compatible, but
 maybe I am overthinking this. There are also a couple of other patches
 that this depends on (like removal of the big descs array), so I don't
 think it will be available too soon, sadly.

Shouldn't be the nature of get()/put() interface to allow multiple
requests? To me it was a kind of intuitive that I could do another
devm_gpiod_get() for the same gpio. But then it hit me with EBUSY :).

 
 So maybe your best shot for now is to keep using the integer API, as
 much as I hate it. Once we become able to request the same GPIO
 several times, you should be good to switch to descriptors. Sorry this
 has not been done faster.

I'll do it legacy way but I'll try to use bindings gpiolib-safe. This
way future transition in the driver should not affect bindings.

Best regards,
Krzysztof

  The gpiod_get() gets GPIO from a device level, not from given sub-node

  ldo21_reg: ldo21 {
   regulator-compatible = LDO21;

   regulator-compatible = LDO22;

   regulator-min-microvolt = 280;
   regulator-max-microvolt = 280;
   ec-gpio = gpk0 2 0;
  };
 
 
  I could put GPIOs in device node:
 
  max77686_pmic@09 {
   compatible = maxim,max77686;
   interrupt-parent = gpx0;
   interrupts = 7 0;
   reg = 0x09;
   #clock-cells = 1;
   ldo21-gpio = gpy2 0 0;
   ldo22-gpio = gpk0 2 0;
 
   ldo21_reg: ldo21 {
   regulator-compatible = LDO21;
   regulator-name = VTF_2.8V;
   regulator-min-microvolt = 280;
   regulator-max-microvolt = 280;
   };
 
   ldo22_reg: ldo22 {

   regulator-name = VMEM_VDD_2.8V;
   regulator-min-microvolt = 280;
   regulator-max-microvolt = 280;
   };
 
  This would work but I don't like it. The properties of a regulator are
  above the node configuring that regulator.
 
  Any ideas?
 
 
  Continuing talking to myself... I found another problem - GPIO cannot be
  requested more than once (-EBUSY). In case of this driver (and board:
  Trats2) one GPIO is connected to regulators. The legacy GPIO API and
  regulator core handle this.
 
  With new GPIO API I would have to implement some additional steps in
  such case...
 
  So there are 2 issues:
  1. Cannot put GPIO property in regulator node.

 For this problem you will probably want to use the
 dev(m)_get_named_gpiod_from_child() function from the following patch:

 https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/10/6/529

 It should reach -next soon now.

 Thanks! Probably I would switch to top level gpios property anyway
 (other reasons) but it would be valuable in some cases to specify them
 per child node.

Mmm, but doesn't it make more sense to have them in the child nodes?
Besides if the bindings of this driver have already been published,
I'm afraid you will have to maintain backward compability.



  2. Cannot request some GPIO more than once.

 We have been confronted to this problem with the regulator core as well:

 http://marc.info/?l=linux-arm-kernelm=140417649119733w=1

Only if it makes sense for the resource to be requested multiple
times. GPIOs are kind of a difficult case here. Consumers could ask
for e.g. conflicting directions. But for cases where it should work I
agree that multiple consumers would be welcome.

 To me it was a kind of intuitive that I could do another
 devm_gpiod_get() for the same gpio. But then it hit me with EBUSY :).

[PATCH 6/8] regulator: max77686: Add external GPIO control

2014-10-27 Thread Krzysztof Kozlowski
Add control over GPIO for regulators supporting this: LDO20, LDO21,
LDO22, buck8 and buck9.

This is needed for proper (and full) configuration of the Maxim 77686
PMIC without creating redundant 'regulator-fixed' entries.
