Description:
Some regulator directories will contain a field called
"status". This reports the current regulator status, for
regulators which can report that output value.
This will be one of the following strings:
off
on
error
fast
normal
idle
standby
"off" means the regulator is not supplying power to the
system.
"on" means the regulator is supplying power to the system,
and the regulator can't report a detailed operation mode.
"error" indicates an out-of-regulation status such as being
disabled due to thermal shutdown, or voltage being unstable
because of problems with the input power supply.
"fast", "normal", "idle", and "standby" are all detailed
regulator operation modes (described elsewhere). They
imply "on", but provide more detail.
Note that regulator status is a function of many inputs,
not limited to control inputs from Linux. For example,
the actual load presented may trigger "error" status; or
a regulator may be enabled by another user, even though
Linux did not enable it.
