The patch titled
regulator: documentation - ABI
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
regulator-documentation-abi.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/

+What: /sys/class/regulator/.../state
+Date: April 2008
+KernelVersion: 2.6.26
+Contact: Liam Girdwood <lg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
+Description:
+ Each regulator directory will contain a field called
+ state. This holds the regulator output state.
+
+ This will be one of the following strings:
+
+ 'enabled'
+ 'disabled'
+ 'unknown'
+
+ 'enabled' means the regulator output is ON and is supplying
+ power to the system.
+
+ 'disabled' means the regulator output is OFF and is not
+ supplying power to the system..
+
+ 'unknown' means software cannot determine the state.
+
+ NOTE: this field can be used in conjunction with microvolts
+ and microamps to determine regulator output levels.
+
+
+What: /sys/class/regulator/.../type
+Date: April 2008
+KernelVersion: 2.6.26
+Contact: Liam Girdwood <lg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
+Description:
+ Each regulator directory will contain a field called
+ type. This holds the regulator type.
+
+ This will be one of the following strings:
+
+ 'voltage'
+ 'current'
+ 'unknown'
+
+ 'voltage' means the regulator output voltage can be controlled
+ by software.
+
+ 'current' means the regulator output current limit can be
+ controlled by software.
+
+ 'unknown' means software cannot control either voltage or
+ current limit.
+
+
+What: /sys/class/regulator/.../microvolts
+Date: April 2008
+KernelVersion: 2.6.26
+Contact: Liam Girdwood <lg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
+Description:
+ Each regulator directory will contain a field called
+ microvolts. This holds the regulator output voltage setting
+ measured in microvolts (i.e. E-6 Volts).
+
+ NOTE: This value should not be used to determine the regulator
+ output voltage level as this value is the same regardless of
+ whether the regulator is enabled or disabled.
+
+
+What: /sys/class/regulator/.../microamps
+Date: April 2008
+KernelVersion: 2.6.26
+Contact: Liam Girdwood <lg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
+Description:
+ Each regulator directory will contain a field called
+ microamps. This holds the regulator output current limit
+ setting measured in microamps (i.e. E-6 Amps).
+
+ NOTE: This value should not be used to determine the regulator
+ output current level as this value is the same regardless of
+ whether the regulator is enabled or disabled.
+
+
+What: /sys/class/regulator/.../opmode
+Date: April 2008
+KernelVersion: 2.6.26
+Contact: Liam Girdwood <lg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
+Description:
+ Each regulator directory will contain a field called
+ opmode. This holds the regulator operating mode setting.
+
+ The opmode value can be one of the following strings:
+
+ 'fast'
+ 'normal'
+ 'idle'
+ 'standby'
+ 'unknown'
+
+ The modes are described in include/linux/regulator/regulator.h
+
+ NOTE: This value should not be used to determine the regulator
+ output operating mode as this value is the same regardless of
+ whether the regulator is enabled or disabled.

+
+What: /sys/class/regulator/.../min_microvolts
+Date: April 2008
+KernelVersion: 2.6.26
+Contact: Liam Girdwood <lg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
+Description:
+ Each regulator directory will contain a field called
+ min_microvolts. This holds the minimum safe working regulator
+ output voltage setting for this domain measured in microvolts.
+
+ NOTE: this will return the string 'constraint not defined' if
+ the power domain has no min microvolts constraint defined by
+ platform code.
+
+
+What: /sys/class/regulator/.../max_microvolts
+Date: April 2008
+KernelVersion: 2.6.26
+Contact: Liam Girdwood <lg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
+Description:
+ Each regulator directory will contain a field called
+ max_microvolts. This holds the maximum safe working regulator
+ output voltage setting for this domain measured in microvolts.
+
+ NOTE: this will return the string 'constraint not defined' if
+ the power domain has no max microvolts constraint defined by
+ platform code.
+
+
+What: /sys/class/regulator/.../min_microamps

+What: /sys/class/regulator/.../num_users
+Date: April 2008
+KernelVersion: 2.6.26
+Contact: Liam Girdwood <lg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
+Description:
+ Each regulator directory will contain a field called
+ num_users. This holds the number of consumer devices that
+ have called regulator_enable() on this regulator.
+
+
+What: /sys/class/regulator/.../requested_microamps
+Date: April 2008
+KernelVersion: 2.6.26
+Contact: Liam Girdwood <lg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
+Description:
+ Each regulator directory will contain a field called
+ requested_microamps. This holds the total requested load
+ current in microamps for this regulator from all its consumer
+ devices.

+
+What: /sys/class/regulator/.../parent
+Date: April 2008
+KernelVersion: 2.6.26
+Contact: Liam Girdwood <lg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
+Description:
+ Some regulator directories will contain a link called parent.
+ This points to the parent or supply regulator if one exists.
