[RFC] Migrate to Hz resolution for OPP binding

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 




Hi,

I guess this is just to evaluate how big the lynch mob will be. Anyway:
Triggered by this discussion https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/5/15/46, I
looked a little into what it would take to migrate everybody to Hz
frequency resolutions to avoid all the conversions between cpufreq, CCF,
OPPs, etc.
Turns out, OPPs are already stored in Hz resolution in the kernel, but the DT
bindings use kHz resolution to specify them in DT. So, code-wise there
is just a removal of a multiplication in the OPP parser (see below), but
then there are the DT bindings...

As plan B, I was thinking to add the property 'operating-points-hz'...

Any better ideas?
