I'll repeat what I said off-list so that we can have the whole
conversation on the list:
That looks like a custom Tegra-specific API. I think it'd be much better
to integrate this into the common clock framework as a standard clock
constraints API. There are other use-cases for clock constraints besides
EMC scaling (e.g. some in audio on Tegra, and I'm sure many on other
SoCs too).
Yes, I wrote a bit in the cover letter about our requirements and how
they map to the CCF. Could you please comment on that?
My comments remain the same. I believe this is something that belongs in
the clock driver, or at the least, some API that takes a struct clock as
its parameter, so that drivers can use the existing DT clock lookup
mechanism.
Ok, let me put this strawman here to see if I have gotten close to what
you have in mind:
* add per-client accounting (Rabin's patches referenced before)
* add clk_set_floor, to be used by cpufreq, load stats, etc.
* add clk_set_ceiling, to be used by battery drivers, thermal, etc.
* an EMC driver would collect bandwidth and latency requests from
consumers and call clk_set_floor on the EMC clock.
* the EMC driver would also register for rate change notifications in
the EMC clock and would update the latency allowance registers at that
point.
How does it sound?

Tomeu
