1Generic OPP (Operating Performance Points) Bindings
2----------------------------------------------------
3
4Devices work at voltage-current-frequency combinations and some implementations
5have the liberty of choosing these. These combinations are called Operating
6Performance Points aka OPPs. This document defines bindings for these OPPs
7applicable across wide range of devices. For illustration purpose, this document
8uses CPU as a device.
9
10This document contain multiple versions of OPP binding and only one of them
11should be used per device.
12
13Binding 1: operating-points
14============================
15
16This binding only supports voltage-frequency pairs.
17
18Properties:
19- operating-points: An array of 2-tuples items, and each item consists
20  of frequency and voltage like <freq-kHz vol-uV>.
21	freq: clock frequency in kHz
22	vol: voltage in microvolt
23
24Examples:
25
26cpu@0 {
27	compatible = "arm,cortex-a9";
28	reg = <0>;
29	next-level-cache = <&L2>;
30	operating-points = <
31		/* kHz    uV */
32		792000  1100000
33		396000  950000
34		198000  850000
35	>;
36};
37
38
39Binding 2: operating-points-v2
40============================
41
42* Property: operating-points-v2
43
44Devices supporting OPPs must set their "operating-points-v2" property with
45phandle to a OPP table in their DT node. The OPP core will use this phandle to
46find the operating points for the device.
47
48This can contain more than one phandle for power domain providers that provide
49multiple power domains. That is, one phandle for each power domain. If only one
50phandle is available, then the same OPP table will be used for all power domains
51provided by the power domain provider.
52
53If required, this can be extended for SoC vendor specific bindings. Such bindings
54should be documented as Documentation/devicetree/bindings/power/<vendor>-opp.txt
55and should have a compatible description like: "operating-points-v2-<vendor>".
56
57* OPP Table Node
58
59This describes the OPPs belonging to a device. This node can have following
60properties:
61
62Required properties:
63- compatible: Allow OPPs to express their compatibility. It should be:
64  "operating-points-v2".
65
66- OPP nodes: One or more OPP nodes describing voltage-current-frequency
67  combinations. Their name isn't significant but their phandle can be used to
68  reference an OPP.
69
70Optional properties:
71- opp-shared: Indicates that device nodes using this OPP Table Node's phandle
72  switch their DVFS state together, i.e. they share clock/voltage/current lines.
73  Missing property means devices have independent clock/voltage/current lines,
74  but they share OPP tables.
75
76- status: Marks the OPP table enabled/disabled.
77
78
79* OPP Node
80
81This defines voltage-current-frequency combinations along with other related
82properties.
83
84Required properties:
85- opp-hz: Frequency in Hz, expressed as a 64-bit big-endian integer. This is a
86  required property for all device nodes but devices like power domains. The
87  power domain nodes must have another (implementation dependent) property which
88  uniquely identifies the OPP nodes.
89
90Optional properties:
91- opp-microvolt: voltage in micro Volts.
92
93  A single regulator's voltage is specified with an array of size one or three.
94  Single entry is for target voltage and three entries are for <target min max>
95  voltages.
96
97  Entries for multiple regulators shall be provided in the same field separated
98  by angular brackets <>. The OPP binding doesn't provide any provisions to
99  relate the values to their power supplies or the order in which the supplies
100  need to be configured and that is left for the implementation specific
101  binding.
102
103  Entries for all regulators shall be of the same size, i.e. either all use a
104  single value or triplets.
105
106- opp-microvolt-<name>: Named opp-microvolt property. This is exactly similar to
107  the above opp-microvolt property, but allows multiple voltage ranges to be
108  provided for the same OPP. At runtime, the platform can pick a <name> and
109  matching opp-microvolt-<name> property will be enabled for all OPPs. If the
110  platform doesn't pick a specific <name> or the <name> doesn't match with any
111  opp-microvolt-<name> properties, then opp-microvolt property shall be used, if
112  present.
113
114- opp-microamp: The maximum current drawn by the device in microamperes
115  considering system specific parameters (such as transients, process, aging,
116  maximum operating temperature range etc.) as necessary. This may be used to
117  set the most efficient regulator operating mode.
118
119  Should only be set if opp-microvolt is set for the OPP.
120
121  Entries for multiple regulators shall be provided in the same field separated
122  by angular brackets <>. If current values aren't required for a regulator,
123  then it shall be filled with 0. If current values aren't required for any of
124  the regulators, then this field is not required. The OPP binding doesn't
125  provide any provisions to relate the values to their power supplies or the
126  order in which the supplies need to be configured and that is left for the
127  implementation specific binding.
128
129- opp-microamp-<name>: Named opp-microamp property. Similar to
130  opp-microvolt-<name> property, but for microamp instead.
131
132- opp-level: A value representing the performance level of the device,
133  expressed as a 32-bit integer.
134
135- clock-latency-ns: Specifies the maximum possible transition latency (in
136  nanoseconds) for switching to this OPP from any other OPP.
137
138- turbo-mode: Marks the OPP to be used only for turbo modes. Turbo mode is
139  available on some platforms, where the device can run over its operating
140  frequency for a short duration of time limited by the device's power, current
141  and thermal limits.
142
143- opp-suspend: Marks the OPP to be used during device suspend. If multiple OPPs
144  in the table have this, the OPP with highest opp-hz will be used.
145
146- opp-supported-hw: This enables us to select only a subset of OPPs from the
147  larger OPP table, based on what version of the hardware we are running on. We
148  still can't have multiple nodes with the same opp-hz value in OPP table.
149
150  It's a user defined array containing a hierarchy of hardware version numbers,
151  supported by the OPP. For example: a platform with hierarchy of three levels
152  of versions (A, B and C), this field should be like <X Y Z>, where X
153  corresponds to Version hierarchy A, Y corresponds to version hierarchy B and Z
154  corresponds to version hierarchy C.
155
156  Each level of hierarchy is represented by a 32 bit value, and so there can be
157  only 32 different supported version per hierarchy. i.e. 1 bit per version. A
158  value of 0xFFFFFFFF will enable the OPP for all versions for that hierarchy
159  level. And a value of 0x00000000 will disable the OPP completely, and so we
160  never want that to happen.
161
162  If 32 values aren't sufficient for a version hierarchy, than that version
163  hierarchy can be contained in multiple 32 bit values. i.e. <X Y Z1 Z2> in the
164  above example, Z1 & Z2 refer to the version hierarchy Z.
165
166- status: Marks the node enabled/disabled.
167
168- required-opps: This contains phandle to an OPP node in another device's OPP
169  table. It may contain an array of phandles, where each phandle points to an
170  OPP of a different device. It should not contain multiple phandles to the OPP
171  nodes in the same OPP table. This specifies the minimum required OPP of the
172  device(s), whose OPP's phandle is present in this property, for the
173  functioning of the current device at the current OPP (where this property is
174  present).
