The patch regulator: core: Avoid propagating to supplies when possible
has been applied to the regulator tree at https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/regulator.git All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted. You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed. If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing patches will not be replaced. Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying to this mail. Thanks, Mark >From 488c008a7b7c88b0989ab165f9d0d89ee0777add Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Douglas Anderson <[email protected]> Date: Tue, 20 Nov 2018 09:52:54 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] regulator: core: Avoid propagating to supplies when possible When we called regulator_enable() on a regulator we'd end up propagating that call all the way up the chain every time. This is a bit of a waste of time. A child regulator already refcounts its own enables so it should avoid passing on to its parent unless the refcount transitioned between 0 and 1. Historically this hasn't been a huge problem since we skipped dealing with enable for always-on regulators. In a previous patch, however, we removed the always-on optimization. On one system, the debugfs regulator_summary was now showing a "use_count" of 33 for a top-level regulator. Let's implement this optimization. This turns out to be fairly trivial with the recent reorganization of the regulator core. NOTE: as part of this patch I'll make "always-on" regulators start with a use count of 1. This keeps the counts clean when recursively resolving regulators. ALSO NOTE: this commit also contains somewhat of a bug fix to regulator_force_disable(). It was incorrectly looping over "rdev->open_count" when it should have been looping over use_count. We have to touch that code anyway (since we should no longer loop at all), so we'll fix it together in one patch. Also: since this comes after commit f8702f9e4aa7 ("regulator: core: Use ww_mutex for regulators locking") we can now move to use _regulator_disable() for our supply and keep it in the lock.
