Hello Guenter,

Thanks for your time to review.

I find no reference to this chip anywhere. Can you provide one ?


I have Preliminary specification under NDA, checking with manufactures upload in public accessibility.

Also, please refrain from cryptic abbreviations. You may know what
ADAS means, but I have no idea.

Sure

Why not use PMBUS_REGULATOR_STEP ?

MPQ7932 chip supports ramp delay and softstart which is not covered
by PMBUS_REGULATOR_STEP, I have incremental patch to address which
requires API's in pmbus_regulator_ops to be exported so chip driver
can extend/modifiy with reuse of pmbus_regulator api. Plan is to submit 1st set of minimal driver and create RFC.

I can replace PMBUS_REGULATOR_STEP for this series.


The only difference is that the above also sets min_uV.
I'd rather have that added to PMBUS_REGULATOR_STEP instead
of adding more macros.

As for min_uV, is that really needed ? None of the other regulators
seemed to need it.


Indeed min_uV is needed.
output voltage is in the range from 0.20625V to 1.8V. Calculated based as VOUT_CMD [7:0]*6.25mV+206.25mV

min voltage is 206.25mV if register is 0.

It is common to min_uV in regulator driver, e.g mpq7920, mp5416

I add one more patch to this series for min_uV addition in PMBUS_REGULATOR_STEP.

This needs explanation. VOUT_COMMAND directly sets a voltage, and the provided value is in ULINEAR16 format. Just using its lower 8 bits seems, at the very
least, odd.


Indeed, unfortunately word_write results -EREMOTEIO and got clarified with manufacture chip support only byte write except STATUS_WORD :(

Question then is what this byte contains. What if an attempt is made
to write a value > 0xff ? Writing 0x00 instead of 0x100 can only result
in severe trouble.


As mention above VOUT_CMD is one byte range 0 to 255. we have .n_voltages = 0xff, regulator driver forbid the regulator consumer to set value beyond 0xff

VOUT_CMD [7:0]*6.25mV+206.25mV

+        return 0;
+
+    case PMBUS_MFR_VOUT_MAX:
+        return MPQ7932_N_VOLTAGES;
+

This is not how this is intended to work. If the chip does not provide
those properties, they should not be faked.


Unfortunately, chip support neither

       PMBUS_VOUT_MARGIN_HIGH          = 0x25,
       PMBUS_VOUT_MARGIN_LOW           = 0x26,

nor

       PMBUS_MFR_VOUT_MIN              = 0xA4,
       PMBUS_MFR_VOUT_MAX              = 0xA5


as a result set voltage fails due to error in pmbus_regulator_get_low_margin. I can understand these absolute workaround, please suggest alternatives


Good point. I'd accept that with explanation, but PMBUS_MFR_VOUT_MAX
is a maximum voltage, not the number of voltages. And is 0 for
the minimum voltage really correct ? It seems to contradict
MPQ7932_BUCK_UV_MIN.


MRF_VOUT_MAX / MIN takes the absolute value of register (0 to 255) and pmbus_reg2data does the conversion

        info->m[PSC_VOLTAGE_OUT] = 160;
        info->b[PSC_VOLTAGE_OUT] = -33;

e.g reg_value is 0
        val = div_s64(val - b, m);
        val = div_s64(0 - (-33), 160);
        val = div_s64(33, 160) => 0.20625 (MPQ7932_BUCK_UV_MIN)


which gives same result of
VOUT_CMD [7:0]*6.25mV+206.25mV

Is that really all the chip supports ? No input data, no current
or power measurements ?

Is this even a real PMBus chip, or a fake one which claims to support
PMBus but in reality doesn't ?

I would say this is PMIC buck regulator chip over PMBUS, I guess the regulator support in pmbus shall be used without hardware monitor support (though chip support temperature, error status, cml, status)

PMBus drivers are not primarily regulator drivers. They
are hardware monitoring drivers. It is difficult for me to
determine, due to lack of information about this chip,
what it actually supports. If the chip is really a regulator
masquerading as PMBus chip, you might want to consider writing
a regulator driver for it.


I try to share datasheet once I got permission from manufacturer.
Sure, I consider to write regulator driver over pmbus (addnl helper support on regulator subsystem like regmap) if we conclude should not be part of hwmon.


Depends on you. Do you want a hwmon driver with regulator support,
or a regulator driver ? We can't have a regulator driver in
the hwmon subsystem.


I have firmly believe this series is already a correct one best of my knowledge
