The consumer part datasheet does NOT mention 1.3GHz at all, so consumer part ONLY support 1GHz/1.5GHz, and industrial part ONLY support 800MHz/1.3GHz, this is what we did in our internal tree and NPI release, so better to make them aligned, otherwise, we have to change it when kernel upgrade. And normally, with same voltage, i.MX SoCs always run at highest frequency, so it is better to keep the rule, otherwise customer may ask, how about using same voltage to run at 1.2GHz or 1.1GHz? > > > opp-hz = /bits/ 64 <1300000000>; > > opp-microvolt = <1000000>; > > - opp-supported-hw = <0xc>, <0x7>; > > + /* Industrial only but rely on speed grading */ > > + opp-supported-hw = <0xc>, <0x4>; > > Comment is false, you're explicitly excluding consumer parts via the second > element. Yes, that is what I meant to do, as we no need to support 1.3GHz for consumer part, with 1.0V, consumer part can run up to 1.5GHz. > > > opp-hz = /bits/ 64 <1500000000>; > > opp-microvolt = <1000000>; > > /* Consumer only but rely on speed grading */ > > - opp-supported-hw = <0x8>, <0x7>; > > + opp-supported-hw = <0x8>, <0x3>; > > If you don't want to rely on the fact that only consumer parts should be > fused for 1.5 Ghz then please delete the comment. Don't quite understand, 1.5GHz is indeed consumer ONLY, but if the consumer part is fused to 1GHz, then 1.5GHz is also NOT available, so it also rely on speed grading. So keep the comment there is OK? Thanks, Anson.
