I don't understand what you mean by "platform callback". Normally the driver would unconditionally use the regulators. > If I put regulator enabling into the driver how can one make it working > on a board without regulators (chip powered all the time)? Should the > driver ignore errors from regulator_get()? No, check the errors. The regulator API will stub itself out if it's not enabled in Kconfig (which will happen on boards where it's not being used at all), boards using a mixed configuration can use fixed voltage regulators for static supplies and REGULATOR_DUMMY can also be used. > What if one regulator needs enabling other to operate properly > (parent-child hierarchy)? Set up supplies for the child regulators in their constraints. This isn't heavily tested at the minute but it should do the right thing for you automatically in the core; if it doesn't work we can fix it up. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-samsung-soc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
