So in our case this would be: - alternate - gpo - gpi In our use-case it is a gpi.. An other reason why pinctrl seems not be the right solution is that the regulator must be configured to use this gpi. This decision can't be made globally because each regulator can be configured differently.. For me its just a local gpio. Regards, Marco > > > > Regards, > > Marco > > >

I know in the datasheet this isn't marked as an alternate function specifically but to me having regulator control by the chip's own GPI is an alternative function for that GPIO pin, in the same way a specific pin can be used for SYS_EN or Watchdog control. It's a dedicated purpose rather than being a normal GPI. See the following as an example of what I'm suggesting: https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/pinctrl/pinctrl-palmas.txt You could then pass the pinctrl information to the regulator driver and use that rather than having device specific bindings for this.

That's true, the common gpio bindings are from the view of the processor, e.g. which gpio must the processor drive to enable/switch the regualtor. So one reasone more to use a non-common binding. Please take a look on my other comment I made :) I don't use the gpio-alternative function. I use it as an input.

Yes I think I was at cross purposes when I made this remark. The bindings there describe the GPOs that are used to enable/disable and set voltage/current for regulators and the supported voltage/current levels that can be configured in this manner. What you're describing is the GPI for DA9061/2. If you look at GPIO handling in existing regulator drivers I believe they all deal with external GPOs that are configured to enable/disable and set voltage/current limits rather than the GPI on the PMIC itself. That's why I'm thinking that the configurations you're doing here should actually be in a pinctrl or GPIO driver. I'd be interested in hearing Mark's view on this though as he has far more experience in this area than I do. > > Regards, > Marco > > > > - rtc : This node defines settings required for the Real-Time Clock > > > associated > > >with the DA9062.
