[PATCH 0/2] Add the property to make ocp level selectable

[cy_huang]

From: ChiYuan Huang <cy_huang@richtek.com>

This patch series is to make ocp level selectable.

Some application design use small inductor. And it's easy to trigger the
over current protection. Due to the OCP limit, It make the brightness current
not match the configured value.

To meet the HW design, the ocp level have to be selectable.

Could you explain here what is OCP (unfold the acronym)?

OK, if so, do I need to rename all properties from 'bled' to 'backlight' ?
If  only this property is naming as 'backlight'. it may conflict with
the others like as "richtek,bled-ovp-sel".

Yes. And the full name is 'over current protection'.

Thanks and this leads to second thing - you encode register value
instead of logical value. This must be a logical value in mA, so
"richtek,bled-ocp-microamp".

I see you already did some register-style for voltage. It's wrong but it
was done, so let it be. But let's don't make that a pattern...

We already have common properties for setting current of LEDs. We should 
use that here I think.

We already have common properties for setting current of LEDs. We should 
use that here I think.

It might not be exactly the same. We have "led-max-microamp" which is
the maximum allowed current. I guess over-current protection level  is
slightly higher (e.g. led-max-microamp + 1). IOW, led-max-microamp is
something which still can be set and used by system/hardware. OCP should
not.

Yap, you're right.
From the modern backlight IC design, it uses the boost converter architecture.
This OCP level is to limit the inductor current when the internal MOS
switch turn on.
Details can refer to the below wiki link
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boost_converter

And based on it, OVP is used to limit the inductor output voltage.
Each channel maximum current is based on the IC affordable limit.
It is more like as what you said 'led-max-microamp'.

So boost voltage level may depend on the LED VF.
The different series of LED may cause different boost voltage.

RT4831's OVP/OCP is not just the protection, more like as the limit.

No, the meaning is different. 'led-max-microamp' always means the
channel output current.
It already can be adjusted by backlight brightness node.

For example
low voltage side (3.3~4.4V) to generate the boost voltage to 16~17V,
even 20V for BLED Vout.
This OCP is to limit the input current of low voltage side.

After the explanation, do you still think it's the same thing?

Isn't this just restating the Subject: line?

It would be better to provide information useful to the reviewer here.
Something like:

"Currently this driver simply inherits whatever over-current protection
level is programmed into the hardware when it is handed over. Typically
this will be the reset value, <whatever>A, although the bootloader could
have established a different value.

Allow the correct OCP value to be provided by the DT."

BTW please don't uncritically copy the above into the patch header. It is
just made something up as an example and I did no fact checking...

Is 1.2A the reset value for the register?

Additionally, it looks like adding a hard-coded default would cause
problems for existing platforms where the bootloader doesn't use
richtek,bled-ocp-sel and pre-configures a different value itself.

Would it be safer (in terms of working nicely with older bootloaders)
to only write to the RT4831_BLOCP_MASK if the new property is set?

Isn't this just restating the Subject: line?

It would be better to provide information useful to the reviewer here.
Something like:

"Currently this driver simply inherits whatever over-current protection
level is programmed into the hardware when it is handed over. Typically
this will be the reset value, <whatever>A, although the bootloader could
have established a different value.

Allow the correct OCP value to be provided by the DT."

BTW please don't uncritically copy the above into the patch header. It is
just made something up as an example and I did no fact checking...

Is 1.2A the reset value for the register?

Additionally, it looks like adding a hard-coded default would cause
problems for existing platforms where the bootloader doesn't use
richtek,bled-ocp-sel and pre-configures a different value itself.

Would it be safer (in terms of working nicely with older bootloaders)
to only write to the RT4831_BLOCP_MASK if the new property is set?

Yes, it's the HW default value.

Ah, my excuse. I really didn't consider the case that you mentioned.
It seems it's better to do the judgement here for two cases.
1) property not exist, keep the current HW value
2) property exist, clamp align and update the suitable selector to HW.

Ok, great.

When you make this change can you make sure there is a comment in the
source code explaining that concerns about older firmware is *why* we
treat bled-ocp-sel differently to bled-ovp-sel!
