I know we rely today on presence of node before we initialise, but hey we have exception for system power protocol for other reasons, why not add this one too. In short we shouldn't have to add a node if there are no consumers. It was one of the topic of discussion initially when SCMI binding was added and they exist only for the consumers otherwise we don't need it as everything is discoverable from the interface. -- Regards, Sudeep
