I still have issues with this whole series. The DT hierarchy represents buses. You are describing buses here and control of them. I would expect to see some hierarchy, but there is none. What this looks like is you are adding nodes based on what fits the current driver. Rob

I already replied[1] about your same question on v2 patchset four 4 months ago.

Just, the bus_isp connect to between ISP block and DRAM. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks, Chanwoo Choi

But, I think it is not appropriate. there is no perfect paired set between sub-block and dvfs driver for AMBA bus. For example about Exynos5420's JPEG IP, There are two JPEG IPs in the Exynos5420. But two JPEG IPs use the same source clock for AMBA AXI line to transfer data between DRAM and JPEG as following: (AXI master) (AXI slave) JPEG_0 --|-----(AXI)-----| | |---- DRAM JPEG_1 --|-----(AXI)-----| Two AMBA buses use the same source clock. So, only one dvfs driver should handle the source clock for AXI bus. Also, two JPEG use the same AMBA APB line to configure the register of JPEG IP as following: (APB slave) (APB master) JPEG_0 --|-----(APB)-----| | |---- CPU JPEG_1 --|-----(APB)-----| The JPEG_0/1 could not be included in both AXI and APB in Device Tree. Additionally, the I2C/SPI/PCI and etc use the APB bus for communication between each controller and CPU. I'll expect your reply. Best Regards, Chanwoo Choi
