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
Liam Girdwooda5766f12008-10-10 13:22:20 +010013struct regulator_dev *regulator_register(struct device *dev,
14 struct regulator_desc *regulator_desc);

Liam Girdwooda5766f12008-10-10 13:22:20 +010016This will register the regulators capabilities and operations to the regulator
17core.

19Regulators can be unregistered by calling :-
20
21void regulator_unregister(struct regulator_dev *rdev);

24Regulator Events
25================
26Regulators can send events (e.g. over temp, under voltage, etc) to consumer
27drivers by calling :-
28
29int regulator_notifier_call_chain(struct regulator_dev *rdev,
30 unsigned long event, void *data);
