I'm pretty sure lockstep or not is a thing for both and TCMs seem to be a common thing. And I don't really think System DT will not impact it. Though it's not well enough defined to say either way IMO. But if Bjorn wants to take this, fine. I'm not acking it though nor worrying about it for any compatibility with system DT. Rob

The cluster mode is a common theme, and if you have a preference for a common property-name, both I and Ben can use that. The values though might vary between different vendor SoCs. I have given out all the differences and reasons on a v2 thread, the SoC and clock and reset integration aspects make it look very different. Please see the discussion here, https://patchwork.kernel.org/comment/23560321/ There was only one open comment/question I had regarding Core identification w.r.t my binding. Do you prefer a node-name index difference or a separate core-id/cpu-id property identifying which is Core0 and Core1. > > And I don't really think System DT will not impact it. Though it's not > well enough defined to say either way IMO. Yeah agreed. But the current architecture in System DT does allow you to add plugins to generate the proper compliant dts node. In anycase, I doubt TI will ever be using it in general, because we do not have a concept of DT on our firmwares. I have given all these inputs again on v2, but haven't seen any responses on it. So, I do appreciate your feedback. > > But if Bjorn wants to take this, fine. I'm not acking it though nor > worrying about it for any compatibility with system DT. Any specific reasons? For the most part, I am using all standard properties. regards Suman
