[PATCH v5 0/3] Enable DW9714V camera focus coils on SHIFT 6MQ
From: David Heidelberg via B4 Relay
Date: Sat Aug 22 2026 - 01:17:03 EST
Implements wiring for:
- SGM2036 linear regulator used to turn on the focus coils [1]
- Dongwoon 9714V focus coil used by IMX519 camera sensor [2]
- Dongwoon 9714V focus coil used by S5K2X7SP camera sensor

Open question for future work: modeling the I2C bus supply.
Like many similar chips, the DW9714 has a single VDD supply, but its I2C
lines go through a level shifter to a 1.8V rail, and there is currently no
place in DT to describe that rail so it gets enabled during I2C access to
the device. As a stopgap, this series models it as an always-on, see the
comment in the vreg_lvs1a_1p8 node).
Direction agreed with Rob Herring and Mark Brown on IRC:
- Modeling the level shifter itself is overkill as long as it is just a
supply; modeling the connector would come first if needed.
- Since each side of the shifter has its own supply, the proper solution
is a generic 'bus-supply' property valid in both the I2C controller and
device nodes.
- Defining it per-device-schema would ideally use an I2C equivalent of
spi-peripheral-props.yaml, which does not exist yet. The pragmatic
interim is to define bus-supply in i2c-controller.yaml for both places
and add 'bus-supply: true' to schemas that need it now (dw9714),
deferring the peripheral-props question until more shared device
properties accumulate.
Once bus-supply exists, the regulator-always-on workaround in this DTS can
be dropped.

Changes in v5:
- There is secondary rear camera with the same AF. Tested with the
camera (not upstreamed yet).
- Verified the both rear cameras i2c addresses, added comment about it.
- Link to v4: https://patch.msgid.link/20260810-dw9714v-v4-0-a227cb1d29bd@xxxxxxx
Changes in v4:
- Updated DT bindings commit description. (Sakari)
- Link to v3: https://patch.msgid.link/20260803-dw9714v-v3-0-8e10278dcd0d@xxxxxxx
Changes in v3:
- Multiline compatible. (Konrad)
- Dropped output-low from avdd_cam pinctrl. (Konrad)
- Then dropped whole sleep pinctrl state, as it's same as default.
- Reworded the TODO. (Konrad)
- Dropped camss node. (claude)
- Moved before cdsp_pas (sort)
- Dropped unused regulator label.
- Switched the i2c bus shifter with the regulator VDD, as previously it
was incorrectly wired and keep always-on on the i2c bus shifter.
