[PATCH v4 4/4] Documentation: EM: Describe new registration method using DT

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

 



The new registration method allows to get power values from the DT OPP
definition. The new OPP entry property "opp-microwatt" contains total
power expressed in micro-Watts. Align the EM documentation with this
new possible registration method of EM.

+Registration of EM using DT
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The  EM can also be registered using OPP framework and information in DT
+"operating-points-v2". Each OPP entry in DT can be extended with a property
+"opp-microwatt" containing micro-Watts power value. This OPP DT property
+allows a platform to register EM power values which are reflecting total power
+(static + dynamic). These power values might be coming directly from
+experiments and measurements.
