[PATCH 0/2] Add CDSP Power Manangement Driver
From: Vignesh Viswanathan
Date: Tue May 19 2026 - 15:08:28 EST
On platforms like IPQ9650, the CDSP subsystem cannot manage its own power
rails and requires the APSS to handle power management on its behalf. Add a
platform driver to fulfill this role.
Handle LPM (Low Power Mode) by executing hardware isolation and restoration
sequences via MPM register programming, coordinated with the NSP Q6 through
a handshake protocol. Support both FULL_PC (CX+MX collapse) and LONG_APCR
(CX-only) modes, detected dynamically at runtime.
Handle DCVS (Dynamic Clock and Voltage Scaling) requests from the NSP Q6
received via a shared SMEM channel. Apply voltages via the regulator
framework and write responses back to SMEM.
Expose virtual cdsp-vdd-cx and cdsp-vdd-mx regulators so that the PAS
remoteproc driver can control the NSP power rails through the standard
regulator framework.
This driver functionally depends on [1] for bringing up the CDSP on
IPQ9650, but there is no compile time dependency.
