Hi,
I am working on DT binding for Tegra DVFS.
For Tegra, DVFS node mainly consists of frequency and voltage pairs.
Frequency in the pair may change for different process. E.g. for process
1 CPU clock frequency could be 900MHz at 1V while for process 2 it could
be 1GHz at 1V.
Tegra uses vendor specific ids to identify the correct frequency table.
Hello,
It seems that in the example, the values in "voltage-array" and
"frequencies" are switched.
Anyway, what about SoCs that reads information from IEM (or any other module)
to measure gate delays or some other value to set the appriorate voltage values
for every possible frequency? I remember some of Exynos SoCs have been doing
it; dynamically measure the characteristics at boot-up time and apply voltages
accordingly; they couldn't identify it based on the chip-id or simply by reading
a single register.
But in that case you would have a nominal voltage for each OPP which gets
adjusted at boottime or runtime depending on the exact silicon characteristics?
I would say the DT binding should then specify 1 table with the nominal values
and leave the dynamics to the driver.
It makes sense or is it different than this?
Cheers,
Peter.
