Binding for ST’s CPUFreq driver

ST’s CPUFreq driver attempts to read ‘process’ and ‘version’ attributes
from the SoC, then supplies the OPP framework with ‘prop’ and ‘supported
hardware’ information respectively. The framework is then able to read
the DT and operate in the usual way.

For more information about the expected DT format [See: ../opp/opp.txt].

Frequency Scaling only

No vendor specific driver required for this.

Located in CPU’s node:

• operating-points : [See: ../power/opp.txt]

Example [safe]

cpus {
cpu@0 {
/* kHz uV */
operating-points = <1500000 0
1200000 0
800000 0
500000 0>;
};
};

Dynamic Voltage and Frequency Scaling (DVFS)

This requires the ST CPUFreq driver to supply ‘process’ and ‘version’ info.

Located in CPU’s node:

• operating-points-v2 : [See ../power/opp.txt]

Example [unsafe]

cpus {
cpu@0 {
operating-points-v2 = <&cpu0_opp_table>;
};
};

cpu0_opp_table: opp_table {
compatible = “operating-points-v2”;
