Subject: [PATCH] arm64: dts: qcom: db820c: Improve regulator voltage range and mark it as always-on
Date: Mon, 27 Sep 2021 13:37:45 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210927163745.2066610-1-gpiccoli@igalia.com> (raw)

Commit 2317b87a2a6f ("arm64: dts: qcom: db820c: Add vdd_gfx and tie it into mmcc")
introduced this voltage regulator which seems to be essential for the GPU,
according to the board schematics [0]. The problem is that such commit sets
the regulator min/max voltage range to a static value, which is a bit lower than
the range supported to such regulator [1]. With that, the GPU is not stable
as per my experiments (in a Dragonboard 820c-based board) - I've observed
sudden reboots into a FW bad state.

More than that, my experiment showed that this regulator must be set to
always-on - this idea came from a commit in Linaro's tree, from Rajendra [2].
With the voltage range updated plus set as always-on, the GPU is working
correctly, in a stable fashion.

Hi Andy/Bjorn/all, this patch was tested in 5.14, but I've tested it
in the linux-next tree as well and was able to apply there cleanly.
I'm new in the DTS world, so my apologies in advance for any rookie
mistake - suggestions are appreciated! Thanks in advance for the review,


Guilherme
