Since the gpi can be used by several regulators for voltage selection or enable/disable action this gpi is marked as shared. If I got you right than you would do something like for regulatorX. pinctrl-node { gpio2 { func = "vsel"; } } But the gpi(o)2 can also be used to enable/disable a regulatorY if I understood the datasheet correctly. I other words: +--> Alternate function / ---+ +--> GPI ----> Edge detection ---> more processing | | | | | +-----> Regulator control | | | \__ __/ \__________ _______ \/ \/ pinctrl gpio This is how I understood the pinctrl use-case. I configure the pin as gpio and then the regulator driver consume a gpio. > At the end of the day I'm not the gatekeeper here so I think Mark's input is > necessary as he will likely have a view on how this should be done.

Why should this only apply to da9062 devices? IMHO this property can be used by any other dlg pmic as well if it is supported.
