Hi Asutosh,

Thanks for sharing this idea.

1. I did not see above flow defined in UFS specifications, please
correct me if I was wrong.

2. For above flow, the concern is that I am not sure if all devices
supporting VCC (2.4v - 2.7v) can accept higher voltage, say 2.95v, for
version detection.

3. For version detection, another concern is that I am not sure if all
3.x devices support VCC (2.4v - 2.7v) only, or in other words, I am not
sure if all 2.x devices support VCC (2.7v - 3.6v) only. The above rule
will break any devices not obeying this "conventions".

For platforms that support both 2.x (2.7v-3.6v) and 3.x (2.4v-2.7v),

It would be good for UFS drivers detecting the correct voltage if the
protocol is well-defined in specifications. Until that day, any
"non-standard" way may be better implemented in vendor's ops?

If the vop concept works on your platform, we could still keep struct
ufs_vreg and allow vendors to configure proper min_uV and max_uV to make
regulator_set_voltage() works during VCC toggling flow. Without specific
vendor configurations, min_uV and max_uV would be NULL by default and
UFS core driver will only enable/disasble VCC regulator only without
adjusting its voltage.

Maybe one possible another idea is to decide the correct voltage and
configure regulator properly before kernel?

Thanks,
Stanley Chu
