2==========================
3
4The regulator driver interface is relatively simple and designed to allow
5regulator drivers to register their services with the core framework.

8Registration
9============
10
11Drivers can register a regulator by calling :-
12
Linus Walleij040932c2009-08-21 14:00:57 +020013struct regulator_dev *regulator_register(struct regulator_desc *regulator_desc,
14 struct device *dev, struct regulator_init_data *init_data,
15 void *driver_data);

Liam Girdwooda5766f12008-10-10 13:22:20 +010017This will register the regulators capabilities and operations to the regulator
18core.
Liam Girdwoode8695eb2008-04-30 17:20:11 +010019
20Regulators can be unregistered by calling :-
21
22void regulator_unregister(struct regulator_dev *rdev);
23

25Regulator Events
26================
27Regulators can send events (e.g. over temp, under voltage, etc) to consumer
28drivers by calling :-
29
30int regulator_notifier_call_chain(struct regulator_dev *rdev,
31 unsigned long event, void *data);
