From 3f0292ae8bb100cc8f96106a3de277df48134887 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Heiko=20St=C3=BCbner?= Date: Wed, 5 Oct 2011 12:27:05 +0200 Subject: regulator: Add driver for gpio-controlled regulators This patch adds support for regulators that can be controlled via gpios. Examples for such regulators are the TI-tps65024x voltage regulators with 4 fixed and 1 runtime-switchable voltage regulators or the TI-bq240XX charger regulators. The number of controlling gpios is not limited, the mapping between voltage/current and target gpio state is done via the states map and the driver can be used for either voltage or current regulators. A mapping for a regulator with two GPIOs could look like: gpios = { { .gpio = GPIO1, .flags = GPIOF_OUT_INIT_HIGH, .label = "gpio name 1" }, { .gpio = GPIO2, .flags = GPIOF_OUT_INIT_LOW, .label = "gpio name 2" }, } The flags element of the gpios array determines the initial state of the gpio, set during probe. The initial state of the regulator is also calculated from these values states = { { .value = volt_or_cur1, .gpios = (0 << 1) | (0 << 0) }, { .value = volt_or_cur2, .gpios = (0 << 1) | (1 << 0) }, { .value = volt_or_cur3, .gpios = (1 << 1) | (0 << 0) }, { .value = volt_or_cur4, .gpios = (1 << 1) | (1 << 0) }, } The target-state for the n-th gpio is determined by the n-th bit in the bitfield of the target-value.
