REGULATOR_GET_EXCLUS(9)		 API reference	       REGULATOR_GET_EXCLUS(9)

NAME
       regulator_get_exclusive - obtain exclusive access to a regulator.

SYNOPSIS
       struct regulator * regulator_get_exclusive(struct device * dev,
						  const char * id);

ARGUMENTS
       dev
	   device for regulator “consumer”

       id
	   Supply name or regulator ID.

DESCRIPTION
       Returns a struct regulator corresponding to the regulator producer, or
       IS_ERR condition containing errno. Other consumers will be unable to
       obtain this reference is held and the use count for the regulator will
       be initialised to reflect the current state of the regulator.

       This is intended for use by consumers which cannot tolerate shared use
       of the regulator such as those which need to force the regulator off
       for correct operation of the hardware they are controlling.

       Use of supply names configured via regulator_set_device_supply is
       strongly encouraged. It is recommended that the supply name used should
       match the name used for the supply and/or the relevant device pins in
       the datasheet.
