In linux kernel since version 3.10 (release Date: 2013-06-30)
System Control and Power Interface (SCPI) Message Protocol is
defined for the purpose of communication between the Application
Cores(AP) and the System Control Processor(SCP). The MHU peripheral
provides a mechanism for inter-processor communication between SCP
and AP.
SCP controls most of the power managament on the Application
Processors. It offers control and management of: the core/cluster
power states, various power domain DVFS including the core/cluster,
certain system clocks configuration, thermal sensors and many
others.
This protocol library provides interface for all the client drivers
making use of the features offered by the SCP.
