This includes devices like wcn3990 (which have platform + serial parts) and qca6390 / qca6490 / wcn6750 / etc. (which have PCI and serial parts). >From my point of view, the PCIe-only part was nice for an RFC, but for v1 I have expected to see a final solution that we can reuse for wcn3990. > > But I am aware of this and so I actually have an idea for a > generalized power sequencing framework.

And it is a correct representation of the device. The WiFi and BT parts are powered up by the outputs from PMU. We happen to have three different pieces (WiFi, BT and PMU) squashed on a single physical device. > > So I'm thinking that the DT representation should remain as it is: > with separate WLAN and BT nodes consuming resources relevant to their > functionality (BT does not need to enable PCIe regulators). Is it so? The QCA6390 docs clearly say that all regulators should be enabled before asserting BT_EN / WLAN_EN. See the powerup timing diagram and the t2 note to that diagram. > Now how to > handle the QCA6490 model you brought up? How about pwrseq drivers that > would handle the sequence based on compatibles? The QCA6490 is also known as WCN6855. So this problem applies to Qualcomm sm8350 / sm8450 platforms. And strictly speaking I don't see any significant difference between QCA6390 and WCN6855. The regulators might be different, but the implementation should be the same. > > We'd add a new subsystem at drivers/pwrseq/. Inside there would be: > drivers/pwrseq/pwrseq-qca6490.c.

I've been there and I had implemented it in the same way, but rather having the pwrseq as a primary device in DT and parsing end-devices only as a fallback / compatibility case. -- With best wishes Dmitry
