But I'm worried the problem you mentioned won't be solved even if we work on this new driver in the future. My work on the MT8183 scpsys(now v17) is to implement the new hardware logic. Here, I also see related patches, which means that these new logics are necessary. Why can't we work on the original driver? Meanwhile, I thought maybe we should separate the driver into general control and platform data for each SoC, otherwise it'll keep getting bigger and bigger if it need to be support new SoC. And consider DVFSRC (dynamic voltage and frequency scaling resource collector), should we keep the original driver name "scpsys" instead of "pm-domains" because it may provide more functions than power domains? > All this information can be getted from a properly defined binding, so > can be cleaner and smaller, hence, we implemented a new driver.

Well the decision was to change the driver in a not compatible way to make device tree entries better. If we work on the old driver, we would need to find some creative ways to handle old bindings vs new bindings. So I thought it would be better doing a fresh start implementing mt1873 support for reference and add mt8183 as new SoC. From what I have seen mt8192 and others fit the driver structure too. > Meanwhile, I thought maybe we should separate the driver into general > control and platform data for each SoC, otherwise it'll keep getting > bigger and bigger if it need to be support new SoC. > We could in a later series split the SoC depended data structures and put them in drivers/soc/mediatek/pm-domains-mt8183.h or something like this.

The thing with the new driver is, that the binding takes into account, that scpsys has several hardware block, which are represented as child nodes in DTS. The pm-domains is just one of these functionalities and I think DVFSRC should be a new driver with a child node of scpsys in DTS. Does this make sense?
