PMI8996 is *almost* the same hardware as PMI8994, say for some annoyances: - Boards equipped with PMI8996 now have to include pmic-id (which wasn't the case before) - Different qpnp-ibb-discharge-resistor value (will be addressed after LABIBB is introduced) - Different inhibit-derating-ua value (will be addressed after BCL is introduced) - Different ramp_up_step value (will be addressed after [if?] QPNP Flash LED is introduced) This DTSI is supposed to be included >>ON TOP OF<< pmi8994.dtsi, like this: -- msm8996-nice-device.dts -- \#include "pmi8994.dtsi" \#include "pmi8996.dtsi" or more likely like this: -- msm8996-some-phone.dts -- \#include "msm8996.dtsi" ... \#include "pmi8994.dtsi" -- msm8996-pmi8996-some-phone.dts -- \#include "msm8996-some-phone.dts" \#include "pmi8996.dtsi" So that we only have to keep 2 DTs for devices that were shipped with both ones, instead of what would be three (device base + pmi8994 + pmi8996) Signed-off-by: Konrad Dybcio <konrad.dybcio@somainline.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210608202143.247427-1-konrad.dybcio@somainline.org Signed-off-by: Bjorn Andersson <bjorn.andersson@linaro.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
