[PATCH 1/6] dt-bindings: clock: imx8m: document nominal/overdrive properties

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

 



The imx8m-clock.yaml binding covers the clock controller inside all
of the i.MX8M Q/M/N/P SoCs. All of them have in common that they
support two operating modes: nominal and overdrive mode.

While the overdrive mode allows for higher frequencies for many IPs,
the nominal mode needs a lower SoC voltage, thereby reducing
heat generation and power usage.

In any case, software should respect the maximum clock rate limits
described in the datasheet for each of the two operating modes.

To allow device tree consumers to enforce these limits, document two new
optional properties that can be used to sanity check the clock tree.
