[PATCH] arm64: dts: qcom: sc7280-herobrine: Fix PCIe regulator glitch at bootup

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



While scoping signals, we found that the PCIe signals weren't
compliant at bootup. Specifically, the bootloader was setting up PCIe
and leaving it configured, then jumping to the kernel. The kernel was
turning off the regulator while leaving the PCIe clock running, which
was a violation.

In the regulator bindings (and the Linux kernel driver that uses
them), there's currently no way to specify that a GPIO-controlled
regulator should keep its state at bootup. You've got to pick either
"on" or "off". Let's switch it so that the PCIe regulator defaults to
"on" instead of "off". This should be a much safer way to go and
avoids the timing violation. The regulator will still be turned off
later if there are no users.
