So, when you add any new DT bindings (Or a new property in device tree blobs), you need to add its documentation in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/... and get it approved by DT maintainers as well.

Your current branch doesn't matter to us. All that matters here is mainline, that's where you are adding code to. And you must test your stuff on the latest upstream branch only, not on some old kernel release. You can include other dependency patches though, that are required to make it work and mention them in cover-letter. > However, as far as I know, there is no "power" in opp.c (suck like s/suck/such ? > opp-hz) as far, so I need to add something in opp.c for my purpose, suck > like add power in _opp_add_static_v2, and add something for return > "power", right? I may be wrong, please kindly give me your suggestion, > thank you. You first need to propose a change in DT bindings for OPPs: Documentation/devicetree/bindings/opp/opp.txt And then we can change the code properly. > Actually, I am considering to remove the part of static power point > since it is optional for Power Model. Could you agree with this? If its not important for your platform, then I don't have any issues with that.. -- viresh -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
