[PATCH v3 0/3] CPUFreq: Add support for cpu performance dependencies

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

 



Hi All,

In this V3 posting I have replaced the new dt-binding with minor changes/
improvements for opp (since we are now using opp tables instead).
The RFC still stands on how to make this info available to sw consumers.

In the RFC, I am proposing a simple addition of a performance dependencies
cpumask in CPUFreq core and an example of how drivers and consumers would
make use of it.
I also propose an alternative approach, which does not require changes in
CPUFreq core, but - possibly - in all the consumers.

This is to support systems where exposed cpu performance controls are more
fine-grained that the platform's ability to scale cpus independently.

[v3]
  * Remove proposal for new 'cpu-performance-dependencies' as we instead
    can reuse the opp table.
  * Update documentation for devicetree/bindings/opp
  * Minor changes within opp to support empty opp table
  * Rework the RFC by adding a second proposal

[v2]
  * Fix errors when running make dt_binding_check
  * Improve commit message description for the dt-binding
  * Add RFC for implementation in cpufreq-core and one of its
    drivers.
