SubjectRe: [PATCH] regulator: core: Resolve supply name earlier to prevent double-init
From
Date
Hi all,

This is a follow-up patch from my patch on mmc side:
[PATCH v4] arm64: dts: rockchip: Fix SD card init on rk3399-nanopi4
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-rockchip/patch/73F9AED0-D2A8-4294-B6E1-1B92D2A36529@kohlschutter.com/

Thanks to Robin Murphy's help, we were able to figure out that my NanoPI R4S's SD-Card voltage regulator was initialized twice and that a voltage drop was the reason for the initialization failure.
Adding an mdelay to the init code, or — surprisingly — adding a "regulator-uv-protection-microvolt" declaration had "fixed" the issue in 99/100 tries.

Best,
Christian

from arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/rk3399-nanopi4.dtsi:
vcc3v0_sd: vcc3v0-sd {
compatible = "regulator-fixed";
enable-active-high;
gpio = <&gpio0 RK_PA1 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
pinctrl-names = "default";
pinctrl-0 = <&sdmmc0_pwr_h>;
regulator-always-on;
regulator-min-microvolt = <3000000>;
regulator-max-microvolt = <3000000>;
regulator-name = "vcc3v0_sd";
vin-supply = <&vcc3v3_sys>;
};
