SubjectRE: [PATCH 5/5] regulator: Support AP watchdog reset operation for s5m8767a
Date
Hi Mark,
I'm sorry for insufficient explanation.
Basically, PMIC can't know status of ap reset.
Problem can be happened like below.

- AP Bootable lowest arm voltage: 0.9v
- AP arm voltage table for DVFS: 0.8v, 0.9v, 1.0v
- During AP works on 0.8v, watchdog reset is asserted
- AP can't boot, because vdd arm is still 0.8v

Solution
- Basic concept: After ap watchdog reset, GPIO configuration is changed by default value
- S5M8767A has function of voltage control with gpio (8 levels with 3 gpios)
- Set bootable voltage on level 0 -> can work with default gpio configuration
- In the probing, Change voltage control level from level 0 to level 1
- Execute normal dvfs operation on level 1
- After watchdog reset, ap gpio is set by default value
- PMIC operation mode is changed by ap reset (level1 -> level0)
- AP can execute normal boot

If you have any question, email me again.
Thanks,
Sangbeom.
