Yes indeed, Diep Pham tested the original patch IIRC and also has reported
few bugs in SCMI clock code which are fixed. Hence I know it is used by
Renesas.
Hi Peng,
Absence of DTS changes indicate nothing. I am aware of couple of vendors
who use SCMI on several platforms and do report issues regularly and help
in review of the code. So DTS is not a good indicator of SCMI usage
unfortunately. On reason could be that since it is a firmware, bootloaders
can detect and update DTS, just my thought and may differ from the reality.
