Re: [PATCH v15 3/8] mfd: simple-mfd-i2c: Enable support for the silergy,sy7636a

Hi,

this all creates a lot of question marks...
One of my main question is whether sy7636a = sy7636 (at least the
driver in the kobo vendor kernels does not have the "A" at the end,
whic does not necessarily mean a difference).

https://www.silergy.com/products/panel_pmic
lists only a SY7636ARMC, so chances are good that the letters were just
stripped away by the driver developers. Printing on chip package is
cryptic so it is not that helpful. It is just "BWNBDA"

Typo? or is it really a SY3686A? So what we are talking about?

hmm, this thing is called VCOM_MANUAL in the 4.1.15-based driver for the
Kobos and in the 3.0.35 kernel for the Tolinos it is:

// 1:controll the vcom by external VCOM_EN pin 
#define SY7636_REG_OPM_VCOM_EXT_mask    0x1 //  
#define SY7636_REG_OPM_VCOM_EXT_lsb             6 //  

In both kernels, it is set if a gpio is used to control the regulator.
That does not necessarily conflict with your usage. The gpio might just
be hardwired to something in your device. Maybe just a comment about
that issue.

hmm, what does that maximum mean? What you can set without something
freaking out just by setting it? Or the limit where the driver works
reliably?

Hmm, are that all defines you know about? I am fine with not including
unused things now, but I am curious.
For comparison, here is my "scratchpad" of all the information I could
squeeze out of the sy7636 driver until now:

OPMODE 0
  RAILS_ON 7
  VCOM_MANUAL 6
  LIGHTNESS 5

  VDDH_DISABLE 4
  VEE_DISABLE 3
  VPOS_DISABLE 2
  VNEG_DISABLE 1
  VCOM_DISABLE 0

  -> combined as RAILS_DISABLE in code

  VCOM: 10000 uV per step, accepts up to 2.75V (that is a bit contradictory)
VCOM_ADJ1 1

VCOM_ADJ2 2
  VCOM2_B8 7
  VDDH_EXT 0..4

VLDO_ADJ 3
  VLDO_ADJ = 5..7
  VPDD_ADJ = 0..4 

VPDD_LEN 4 
  VPPD_LEN 0..4

VEE_VP_EXT 5
  VP_EXT 5..6
  VEE_EXT 0..4

PWRON_DLY = 6
  TDLY4 = 6..7
  TDLY3 = 4..5
  TDLY2 = 2..3
  TDLY1 = 0..1

FAULTFLAGS 7
  FAULS 1..4: to be read out after interrupt and cleared
      0  no faults
      1  UVP at VB rail
      2  UVP at VN rail
      3  UVP at VPOS rail
      4  UVP at VNEG rail
      5  UVP at VDDH rail
      6  UVP at VEE rail
      7  SCP at VB rail
      8  SCP at VN rail
      9  SCP at VPOS rail
      A  SCP at VNEG rail
      B  SCP at VDDH rail
      C  SCP at VEE rail
      D  SCP at VCOM rail
      E  UVLO
      F  Thermal shutdown

  PG 0

THERM 8

Regards,
Andreas
