Could you explain that please. I fear this is not going to be very robust to state machine changes. And since it is hidden away in a driver, it is going to be forgotten about. You might want to think about making it more robust. Andrew

When the state machine runs, it kicks off auto-neg and immediately reads the link state. If the link is down, it transitions to PHY_NOLINK, at which point this code will enable the regulator. > > I fear this is not going to be very robust to state machine > > changes.

Being shared should not be a problem. The regulator API does reference counting. Any one driver turning the regulator on will enable it. But it will not be turned off until all the drivers disable it after enabling it. But that also means you need to balance the calls to regulator_enable() and regulator_disable(). If for whatever reason this function is called for PHY_HALTED more times than for PHY_NOLINK, the counter can go negative, and bad things would happen. So i would actually had a bool to smsc_phy_priv indicating if the regulator has been enabled. And for each phydev->state, decide if the regulator should be enabled, check if it is enabled according to the bool, and enable it is not. Same with states which indicate it should be disabled. The code is then not dependent on specific transitions, but on actual states. That should be more robust to changes. You also need to think about this regulator being shared. Say some other PHY has enabled the regulator. phy_start() might be able to skip PHY_NOLINK state and so this PHY never calls regulator_enable(). If that other PHY is then configured down, it will disable the regulator, and this PHY looses link. That probably is enough for this PHY to re-enable the regulator, but it is not ideal. Andrew

Add support for controlling regulator powering the magnetics. In case the interface is down, it is possible to save considerable power by turning the regulator supplying the magnetics off.
