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

   8 Registration
   9 ============
  10
  11 Drivers can register a regulator by calling :-
  12
  13 struct regulator_dev *regulator_register(struct regulator_desc *regulator_desc,
  14                                           void *reg_data);
  15
  16 This will register the regulators capabilities and operations the regulator
  17 core. The core does not touch reg_data (private to regulator driver).
  18
  19 Regulators can be unregistered by calling :-
  20
  21 void regulator_unregister(struct regulator_dev *rdev);
  22
  23
  24 Regulator Events
  25 ================
  26 Regulators can send events (e.g. over temp, under voltage, etc) to consumer
  27 drivers by calling :-
  28
  29 int regulator_notifier_call_chain(struct regulator_dev *rdev,
  30                                   unsigned long event, void *data);
