AFAIK the separate v5 / 12v regulators you're creating here
are not used anywhere. So I guess there just here to
accurately / completely describe the power topology ?

Yes it was the point.

Ok.

The always on here seems to a bit weird, wasn't the
whole purpose of this patch set to teach ahci_platform
to turn it on as needed ?

Maybe I misunderstood the regulator binding, but I thought
that (once the suspend will be available on this platform) I
could use:

regulator-state-mem {
			regulator-off-in-suspend;
		};


You do probably want to put a regulator-boot-on here so
that disks do not get an unwanted powercycle (bad for
their lifetime) when the firmware has already turned on
the disk. Downside of using regulator-boot-on is that if
the power is not actually turned on no power-on-delay is

That's why I didn't use it

done, but we're not using a power on delay anyways.

But if regulator-always-on prevent to switch it off in
suspend then yes using regulator-boot-on is better.

AFAIK regulator-always-on means exactly that and thus likely
is not what you want. As for using regulator-off-in-suspend
that is not necessary as the suspend method for the acpi
driver will already turn it off.

Note that you can test this today by doing (IIRC):

echo devices > /sys/power/pm_test
echo mem > /sys/power/state

This is how I tested ahci_platform suspend handling on
the freescale imx processor on the wandboard.

It is probably a good idea to use regulator-boot-on and
then test things this way, and if that works use
regulator-boot-on.

Hans
