Current OPP (Operating performance point) DT bindings are proven to be insufficient at multiple instances.
The shortcomings we are trying to solve here:
- Getting clock/voltage/current rails sharing information between CPUs. Shared by all cores vs independent clock per core vs shared clock per cluster.
- Support for specifying current levels along with voltages.
- Support for multiple regulators.
- Support for turbo modes.
- Other per OPP settings: transition latencies, disabled status, etc.?
- Expandability of OPPs in future.
This patch introduces new bindings "operating-points-v2" to get these problems solved. Refer to the bindings for more details.
