This mapping can be achieved in machine +initialisation code by creating a struct regulator_consumer_supply for +each regulator:: + + struct regulator_consumer_supply { + const char *dev_name; /* consumer dev_name() */ + const char *supply; /* consumer supply - e.g. "vcc" */ + }; + +e.g. for the machine above:: + + static struct regulator_consumer_supply regulator1_consumers[] = { + REGULATOR_SUPPLY("Vcc", "consumer B"), + }; + + static struct regulator_consumer_supply regulator2_consumers[] = { + REGULATOR_SUPPLY("Vcc", "consumer A"), + }; + +This maps Regulator-1 to the 'Vcc' supply for Consumer B and maps Regulator-2 +to the 'Vcc' supply for Consumer A. + +Constraints can now be registered by defining a struct regulator_init_data +for each regulator power domain. This structure also maps the consumers +to their supply regulators:: + + static struct regulator_init_data regulator1_data = { + .constraints = { + .name = "Regulator-1", + .min_uV = 3300000, + .max_uV = 3300000, + .valid_modes_mask = REGULATOR_MODE_NORMAL, + }, + .num_consumer_supplies = ARRAY_SIZE(regulator1_consumers), + .consumer_supplies = regulator1_consumers, + }; + +The name field should be set to something that is usefully descriptive +for the board for configuration of supplies for other regulators and +for use in logging and other diagnostic output. Normally the name +used for the supply rail in the schematic is a good choice. If no +name is provided then the subsystem will choose one. + +Regulator-1 supplies power to Regulator-2. This relationship must be registered +with the core so that Regulator-1 is also enabled when Consumer A enables its +supply (Regulator-2). The supply regulator is set by the supply_regulator +field below and co:: + + static struct regulator_init_data regulator2_data = { + .supply_regulator = "Regulator-1", + .constraints = { + .min_uV = 1800000, + .max_uV = 2000000, + .valid_ops_mask = REGULATOR_CHANGE_VOLTAGE, + .valid_modes_mask = REGULATOR_MODE_NORMAL, + }, + .num_consumer_supplies = ARRAY_SIZE(regulator2_consumers), + .consumer_supplies = regulator2_consumers, + }; + +Finally the regulator devices must be registered in the usual manner:: + + static struct platform_device regulator_devices[] = { + { + .name = "regulator", + .id = DCDC_1, + .dev = { + .platform_data = ®ulator1_data, + }, + }, + { + .name = "regulator", + .id = DCDC_2, + .dev = { + .platform_data = ®ulator2_data, + }, + }, + }; + /* register regulator 1 device */ + platform_device_register(®ulator_devices[0]); + + /* register regulator 2 device */ + platform_device_register(®ulator_devices[1]); -- cgit v1.2.3
