Subject: [PATCH v6 1/2] dt-bindings: cpufreq: add virtual cpufreq device
Date: Mon, 20 May 2024 21:30:51 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240521043102.2786284-2-davidai@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20240521043102.2786284-1-davidai@google.com>
Adding bindings to represent a virtual cpufreq device.
Virtual machines may expose MMIO regions for a virtual cpufreq device
for guests to read performance information or to request performance
selection. The virtual cpufreq device has an individual controller for
each performance domain. Performance points for a given domain can be
normalized across all domains for ease of allowing for virtual machines
to migrate between hosts.

+description:
+ Virtual CPUFreq is a virtualized driver in guest kernels that sends performance
+ selection of its vCPUs as a hint to the host through MMIO regions. Each vCPU
+ is associated with a performance domain which can be shared with other vCPUs.
+ Each performance domain has its own set of registers for performance controls.
+

+ compatible:
+ const: qemu,virtual-cpufreq

+ description:
+ Address and size of region containing performance controls for each of the
+ performance domains. Regions for each performance domain is placed
+ contiguously and contain registers for controlling DVFS(Dynamic Frequency
+ and Voltage) characteristics. The size of the region is proportional to
+ total number of performance domains.
