We spend already some week to publicly talk about this.. The problem is, imx8 has multiple MUs, only some of them communicate directly with SCU. SCU has some well defined protocol and MU should be used and configured in some SCU specific way. From NXP perspective, SCU firmware should not be replaceable and from Linux side seen as part of the HW. @Dong, is it correct description?
