Platform-specific build options
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The default build options should generate a working firmware image. There are
some build options that allow to fine-tune the firmware, or to disable support
for optional features.
- ``SUNXI_SETUP_REGULATORS`` : On SoCs that typically ship with a PMIC
power management controller, BL31 tries to set up all needed power rails,
programming them to their respective voltages. That allows bootloader
software like U-Boot to ignore power control via the PMIC.
This setting defaults to 1. In some situations that enables too many
regulators, or some regulators need to be enabled in a very specific
sequence. To avoid problems with those boards, ``SUNXI_SETUP_REGULATORS``
can bet set to ``0`` on the build command line, to skip the PMIC setup
entirely. Any bootloader or OS would need to setup the PMIC on its own then.
