cover mxs-lradc: Add support for current sources

Patch 1/3 changes the driver and updates the binding documentation (I guess it is still in staging.)

Patches 2/3 and 3/3 add the devicetree nodes to imx23 and imx28 boards. I'd like to get input whether this is actually desired. On boards where these regulators would never be enabled this costs a few extra bytes of RAM for allocation of the device data, because the nodes can't be easily removed in .dts files which are including the .dtsi files. The alternative is to add the new nodes to many .dts files, which would be a lot code duplication.

PATCH 1/3 iio: mxs-lradc: Add regulators for current sources

The hardware has two current sources ISRC0 and ISRC1 to allow measuring resistors without additional circuitry. This commit makes them available as regulators.

Tested on an imx233-olinuxino board.

---
The current regulator API doesn't fit this type of device very well: Typically consumers will want to set a defined current, ie. min_uA == max_uA, but they can't without help from configuration data, because the valid values aren't reported by the API for current regulators. I have been thinking about extending the API, but currently AFAIK no such consumers exist and most users, like myself, will force the regulator to a defined value in devicetree anyway.

I am tempted to block this patch and ask you to properly split the mxs-lradc driver into MFD with touchscreen and IIO part and only then add the regulator bits. The lradc is becoming a katamari of ad-hoc misplaced functionality.

I almost finished, I already split the driver into MFD, sorry for the delay. Can this wait a little bit?

Thanks,
Ksenija

PATCH 1/3 iio: mxs-lradc: Add regulators for current sources

[CCing Mark and Liam again]

Quoted 25 lines · Ksenija Stanojevi?
Quoted 24 lines · Marek Vasut
Quoted 22 lines · Harald Geyer

The hardware has two current sources ISRC0 and ISRC1 to allow measuring
resistors without additional circuitry. This commit makes them available
as regulators.

Tested on an imx233-olinuxino board.

---
The current regulator API doesn't fit this type of device very
well: Typically
consumers will want to set a defined current, ie. min_uA == max_uA, but they
can't without help from configuration data, because the valid values aren't
reported by the API for current regulators. I have been thinking about
extending the API, but currently AFAIK no such consumers exist and most
users, like myself, will force the regulator to a defined value in devicetree anyway.

I am tempted to block this patch and ask you to properly split the mxs-lradc driver into MFD with touchscreen and IIO part and only then
add the regulator bits. The lradc is becoming a katamari of ad-hoc misplaced functionality.

I know. However I'm afraid working this into a proper MFD is above my skills
and I don't feel responsible for the status quo either.

Quoted 2 lines

I almost finished, I already split the driver into MFD, sorry for the delay.

Wow, looks like I have a lot of luck today.

Quoted 1 line

Can this wait a little bit?

Sure. I now have a working kernel for my purposes, so no hurry on my part.
CC my when you submit your code or maybe even pick my patch into your series,
if you feel like it.

Thanks,
Harald

PATCH 1/3 iio: mxs-lradc: Add regulators for current sources

Quoted 26 lines · Harald Geyer

[CCing Mark and Liam again]

The hardware has two current sources ISRC0 and ISRC1 to allow measuring resistors without additional circuitry. This commit makes them available as regulators.

Tested on an imx233-olinuxino board.

---
The current regulator API doesn't fit this type of device very well: Typically consumers will want to set a defined current, ie. min_uA == max_uA, but they can't without help from configuration data, because the valid values aren't reported by the API for current regulators. I have been thinking about extending the API, but currently AFAIK no such consumers exist and most users, like myself, will force the regulator to a defined value in devicetree anyway.

I am tempted to block this patch and ask you to properly split the mxs-lradc driver into MFD with touchscreen and IIO part and only then add the regulator bits. The lradc is becoming a katamari of ad-hoc misplaced functionality.

Quoted 6 lines

I know. However I'm afraid working this into a proper MFD is above my skills and I don't feel responsible for the status quo either.

Quoted 1 line

I almost finished, I already split the driver into MFD, sorry for the delay.

Wow, looks like I have a lot of luck today.

Indeed! Glad to here you have this underway Ksenija. Let me know if you want any other patches held until this is done.

For now I'm assuming that Stefan's series won't cause too much trouble, so I'll probably apply those, but will hold anything more major until your patches show up.

Thanks,

Jonathan

Can this wait a little bit?

Sure. I now have a working kernel for my purposes, so no hurry on my part. CC my when you submit your code or maybe even pick my patch into your series, if you feel like it.

Thanks,
Harald

PATCH 1/3 iio: mxs-lradc: Add regulators for current sources

In reply to Harald Geyer

CCing Mark and Liam.

I guess I shouldn't rely blindly on get_maintainer.pl ...

Quoted 322 lines · Harald Geyer

The hardware has two current sources ISRC0 and ISRC1 to allow measuring
resistors without additional circuitry. This commit makes them available
as regulators.

Tested on an imx233-olinuxino board.

---
The current regulator API doesn't fit this type of device very well:
Typically
consumers will want to set a defined current, ie. min_uA == max_uA, but they
can't without help from configuration data, because the valid values aren't
reported by the API for current regulators. I have been thinking about
extending the API, but currently AFAIK no such consumers exist and most
users, like myself, will force the regulator to a defined value in devicetree anyway.

IMHO the binding should represent the direct connection between the current source and the physical channel. I think a node label isn't enough. Unfortunately i don't have an idea to do it the "right way".

IMHO the binding should represent the direct connection between the current source and the physical channel. I think a node label isn't enough. Unfortunately i don't have an idea to do it the "right way".

I strictly followed the names of the data sheet here: imx23 and imx28 reference manuals both call the current sources ISRC0 and ISRC1 even if they are attached to different channels of the ADC. I think inventing some ISRC6 for imx28 would do more harm then good.

I haven't looked into it yet, but I expect that that the mfd conversion will avoid this neatly.

Thanks,

IMHO the binding should represent the direct connection between the current source and the physical channel. I think a node label isn't enough. Unfortunately i don't have an idea to do it the "right way".

I strictly followed the names of the data sheet here: imx23 and imx28 reference manuals both call the current sources ISRC0 and ISRC1 even if they are attached to different channels of the ADC. I think inventing some ISRC6 for imx28 would do more harm then good.

So just to check... These two current sources are effectively pushing current out of the ADC input pin? Assumption being that this causes an appropriate voltage across a component between there and 0V?

I wonder if we are better off not treating these as regulators at all - whilst you could in theory use them for general purposes, it would be a bit nuts and sometimes the 'it is nuts argument' is enough to mean we don't support something :)

I wouldn't have any problem with an additional attribute for the adc channels - maybe something like...

in_voltage6_sourcecurrent? Then the control could be pushed to userspace.

Or if it only makes sense to do it as a fixed value in DT then define optional child nodes for the individual channels, with the relevant ones have current-source-microamp or something like that as an parameter.

What do you think?

The hardware has two current sources ISRC0 and ISRC1 to allow measuring
resistors without additional circuitry. This commit makes them available
as regulators.

Tested on an imx233-olinuxino board.

---
The current regulator API doesn't fit this type of device very
well: Typically
consumers will want to set a defined current, ie. min_uA == max_uA, but they
can't without help from configuration data, because the valid values aren't
reported by the API for current regulators. I have been thinking about
extending the API, but currently AFAIK no such consumers exist and most
users, like myself, will force the regulator to a defined value in devicetree anyway.

I'm very open to that idea. Not having yet an other subsystem involved would simplify some things a lot.

Or if it only makes sense to do it as a fixed value in DT then define optional child nodes for the individual channels, with the relevant ones have current-source-microamp or something like that as an parameter.

My research in thermistors is still ongoing (so I don't have a kernel driver yet) but I think for thermistors with exponential temperature dependence dynamic setting of the current source will be necessary to get high resolution across the whole temperature range.

Of course many applications wont need this. For checks like "Is my battery over-heating?" a simple fixed current from DT will to well, so I guess we should support both.

Quoted 1 line

What do you think?

As I already stated in an other subthread, I'm not entirely happy with the regulator approach. Having everything inside iio would make supporting complex use cases easier in the future, I guess.

Also IIO devices are much easier to control from user space then regulators, which might be desired for this type of device.

OTOH I'm not sure how many other devices out there have a similar feature. I'd rather not invent a new API for just very few devices. IMO iio already suffers from the complexity of the sysfs API. Maybe somebody with a good overview of ADCs available on the market can provide some input here.

Also of course there are lots of ADCs out there without internal current source and those could be used with thermistors too but would need a regulator anyway. So maybe eventually we would end up with both solutions supported, which I'd avoid if at all possible. (I guess we could work around the last issue by providing some generic driver to pull an iio channel and a regulator together - do we like that level of abstraction?)

If we start our own API to control current sources we might end up pretty much reimplementing the regulator API for the single consumer case.

I'd like to have input from more people on the above points before going one way or the other.

Thanks,
Harald

This adds the devicetree nodes to make the mxs-lradc driver register regulator devices for the integrated current sources.

Tested on an imx23-olinuxino board.

complex indeed. Might be possible to cheat and imply the regulators are
always connected to all inputs... or do you want to dynamically change
the regulator output? That gets messy fast - though in theory might be
possible...

Yes, that's a good summary of what I'm thinking. As there is no iio-multiplexer yet, this is sort of an academic question. But it's kind of an obvious thing to want, so we shouldn't be surprised when somebody actually starts working on that.

Thanks,

Patch 1/3 changes the driver and updates the binding documentation (I guess it is still in staging.)

Patches 2/3 and 3/3 add the devicetree nodes to imx23 and imx28 boards. I'd like to get input whether this is actually desired. On boards where these regulators would never be enabled this costs a few extra bytes of RAM for allocation of the device data, because the nodes can't be easily removed in .dts files which are including the .dtsi files. The alternative is to add the new nodes to many .dts files, which would be a lot code duplication.

if i get it right the real intention of this patch series is to make the mxs-lradc provide resistance values instead of voltages.

... or even temperature values if a thermistor is connected.

Quoted 3 lines

So how about
dropping the whole regulator stuff and provide the values as IIO_RESISTANCE via iio interface?

Can you elaborate on this?

My thinking is that there should be a thermistor (or whatever else) driver, that is a consumer of the regulator and a consumer of the IIO_VOLTAGE iio channel and provides a new device with an IIO_RESISTANCE or IIO_TEMP channel. Maybe there is a simpler solution, that I'm missing?

I agree with that approach - need a way to describe the upstream hardware - so will need a thermistor driver

okay, this makes more sense to me. In this case it would be good to have this new driver in this patch series. So it's possible to verify the matching binding.

Actually I'm not 100% happy with the above solution myself, because if we start supporting devices that act as an iio-multiplexer (some device that is an iio consumer and provides many new iio channels and can control via gpios which of it child channels is actually routed to the upstream device) I don't know how to properly manage the regulator device.

However since this is only hypothetical ATM, I think we don't have to worry about this too much.

Btw this feature should be only added to dts files where is actually used.

Ok, so how do we figure out which boards these are?
I use this on the olinuxino and I guess all evaluation boards support the use case too. The others I don't know enough about to be sure and I guess it's not a good idea to just wait until somebody speaks up and complains that the feature is missing on board X ...

The imx23 dtsi file specifies features on SoC level and i think this should be kept. We shouldn't implement features for ADC pins without deeper knowledge about these boards.

Maybe we could introduce a new dtsi file in order to reduce copy & paste. But at first the OlinuXino should be a good starting point ...
