The IMX6 has some internal LDO regulators provided by the anatop regulator
block that can regulate the arm, soc, gpu/vpu core supplies. Alternatively a
design can supply vdd_arm and vdd_soc externally via a PMIC to provide a lower
power draw (switches are more efficient that ldo's).

What is the status of these patches ? My design uses a PFUZE100
regulator, and having this would be interesting.

Thanks,
JM

JM,

No update from me - I haven't had time to get back to this
unfortunately. Most of our customers are using the Freescale vendor
kernel and I have ldo-bypass working fine there, just not in a way
that is easily mainlineable without work.

OK, thank you...
It's ashame that Freescale won't do a proper job to mainline
everything, it would be good for them too !
Well, If I get some time to look into this I will probably start from
your proposal.

Thanks,
JM
