None of these nodes reference a power domain (which would usually be
CX/MX/MMCX). This way, the RPMhPDs will never be scaled.

The current upstream implementation only allows one power domain to be
scaled, but that's better than none (see other DTs for recent SoCs).

Konrad

SM4450 doesn't support MMCX and CX/MX domains will remain active so
power-domains property is actually not required for SM4450 clock nodes.

It's not only about them being active.. some PLLs require e.g. MX to be
at a certain level, or the system will be unstable

Konrad

With active I mean CX/MX rails will be default running at minimum level required for clock controllers. Adding power-domains property for CX/MX rails is like a redundant code as that will also scale such rails at default specified minimum level only. Also we hadn't added such property for other targets DT nodes to scale up CX/MX at minimum level.

What I mean here is that, the minimum level may not be enough. In such case
you would also add a required-opps = <&handle_to_rpmhpd_opp_level>

Konrad


Apologies, but could you please elaborate the use-case where minimum level isn't enough ? I guess for clock controllers configuration min level of CX/MX would be suffice, client will anyhow scale such rails to higher levels depending on their use-case.

The main issue here is with PLLs within the clock controllers. Nobody
votes for them. It's an unsolved problem and we currently work around
cases where it's necessary by requiring that (with runtime pm, so when
there's active consumers of the clock controller) the attached power
domain is at >= SOME_LEVEL

Konrad

Konrad, this target (SM4450) have all the PLLs connected to CX/MX(again this is not collapsible). At boot the RPMHPD driver would keep the rails at minimum level and which is good to operate for the clock controller. I do not see currently this requirement you pose here specifically for SM4450.

As part of the PLL requirement within clock controller, this is definitely a requirement which we plan to RFC soon. There are discussions already in progress on how to handle this requirement.

Ok, if it works, let's keep it as is until that RFC

Konrad

Thanks Konrad, please provide your ack on this patch if it looks fine for now.
