Hi Leo,
Sorry for jumping late in the discussion but should we also remove
the NAP state from the property cpu-idle-states of the CPUs because
this state not supported by the platform at least for now and may be
not in a near future ?
Then, I have another question regarding the update of the
psci-suspend-parameter. These changes implies an update of the psci
firmawre which means that we will now have 2 different firmware
version compatible with 2 different dt.
Is there any way to check that the ATF on the board is the one that
compatible with the parameter with something like a version ? I
currently use the previous firmware which works fine with current
kernel and dt binding once the NAP state is removed from the table.
When moving on recent kernel, I will have to take care of updating the
firmware and if i need to go back on a previous kernel, i will have to
make sure that i have the right ATF version. This make a lot of chance
of having the wrong configuration
Regards,
Vincent
