SubjectRe: [PATCH] regulator: qcom-smd: Batch up requests for disabled regulators
From
Date
Hi Bjorn,

This seems intresting, but I'm not sure I fully understand it yet.

So if I understand this correctly, the boot chain turned on and
configured the regulator, but didn't give the RPM its vote, so the RPM
doesn't know anything and just assumes the default state -
off/unconfigured. Right?

If we are in Linux, is that boot chain "vote" valid anymore?

So, this would happen when Linux is processing the constraints from DT
for example, but is still initing the devices, so there are no consumers
and thus the device is not enabled, but the voltage configuration is
sent to the RPM to ensure the constraints are met?

I'm curious, would any sort of additional latency be expected because
the RPM has delayed work to the enable "stage"?

While I suspect there are benefits to this change regardless, it seems
like what you are describing above should be addressed by
"regulator-boot-on" in the DT. Why is that not a valid solution for
this scenario?
