Yes, I agree. But it won't be possible to do it for all components.

I would prefer to have it in the for of devlink or use regulator netlink
interface. But, we do not need to do this discussion right now.

Exactly.

@Jakub, at current implementation stage, user need to know the domain
id, because ports (and priorities) are grouped by the top level
regulators (pse-regX in the regulator_summary), they are our top-level
bottlenecks.

HP and Cisco switch either use different PSE controllers, or just didn't
exposed this nuance to the user. Let's assume, they have only one
global power domain.

So, in current patch set I would expect (not force :) ) implementation for
following fields:
- per port:
  - priority (valid within the power domain)
  - power reservation/allocation methods. First of all, because all
    already supported controllers have different implemented/default
    methods: microchip - dynamic, TI - static, regulator-pse - fixed (no
    classification is supported).
    At same time, in the future, we will need be able switch between
    (static or dynamic) and fixed for LLPD or manual configuration.
    Yes, at this point all ports show the same information and it seems
    to be duplicated.
  - power domain ID.

@Jakub, did I answered you question, or missed the point? :)

Thank you!

I do not expect it to be the primer user interface, but it can provide
additional diagnostic information. I wonted to see how it is aligns
with current ethtool UAPI implementation and if it possible to combine
it for diagnostics.

pse-regX should be attached to the main supply regulator for better full
picture. And use different name to be better identified as PSE power domains with ID?
