ACPI Device Runtime Power Management

This page captures the investigation notes and references to implementation for ACPI device runtime power management.

Device power management on NXP I.MX8MP Platform

We have implemented device power management for few devices (I2C, UART) in IMX8MP platform. Changes to different components are given below.

EDK2

https://gitlab.com/LinaroLtd/clientpc/edk2-platforms/-/merge_requests/4

Implements SCMI protocol support

SCMI AML methods to set clock state and get clock rate

Device power management for I2C and UART

GCLK AML method to get clock rate using SCMI

TF-A

https://gitlab.com/LinaroLtd/clientpc/tf-a/-/merge_requests/2/

Add support for SCMI protocol

Implements a simple clock driver for I.MX8MP platform and SCMI clock management support

The implementation includes an SCMI server implemented in TF-A and a SCMI agent implemented in AML.
