Subject: [PATCH] arm64: dts: meson: odroid-n2: keep SD card regulator always on
Date: Fri, 19 Jul 2019 21:29:54 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190719192954.26481-1-xruppen@gmail.com> (raw)

When powering off the Odroid N2, the tflash_vdd regulator is
automatically turned off by the kernel. This is a problem
when issuing the "reboot" command while using an SD card.
The boot ROM does not power this regulator back on, blocking
the reboot process at the boot ROM stage, preventing the
SD card from being detected.

Adding the "regulator-always-on" property fixes the problem.

Here is what the boot ROM output looks like without this patch:

    [root@alarm ~]# reboot 
    [...]
    [   24.275860] shutdown[1]: All loop devices detached.
    [   24.278864] shutdown[1]: Detaching DM devices.

Other people can be seen having this problem on the odroid
forum [1].

The cause of the problem was found by Martin Blumenstingl
on #linux-amlogic. We may want to add his Suggested-by tag
if he agrees.
