Subject: [PATCH v3] regulator: max14577: fix set_mode clobbering enable on MAX77836 LDOs
Date: Tue, 16 Jun 2026 18:02:56 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260616170256.1659595-1-inasj268@gmail.com> (raw)
So the PWRMD field in CNFG1_LDO is both the enable bit and the mode.
You can't change one without stepping on the other.
The problem is that enable() from the regulator core just writes
enable_mask (which is PWRMD_NORMAL). If you'd called set_mode(LPM)
then disabled and re-enabled, the mode gets reset to NORMAL. And
set_mode updates the register through the same field, so it can
accidentally enable a disabled regulator.
Fix it by storing the mode in per-regulator data. A custom enable
writes whatever mode was last set. set_mode only touches hardware
if the regulator is already on; otherwise it just caches the value.
Add of_map_mode while here so the initial mode can be wired from DT.

v3:
- Cache the desired mode in driver data instead of writing to the
enable register directly, so enable() and set_mode() stop fighting
over the same register field (caught by Mark Brown).
- Add custom enable/disable that respect the cached mode.
- Add of_map_mode while here.
