The opp-microwatt property was added with the intention of providing
platforms a way to specify a precise value for the power consumption
of a device at a given OPP to enable better energy-aware scheduling
decisions by informing the kernel of the total static and dynamic
power of a device at a given OPP, removing the reliance on the EM
subsystem's often flawed estimations. This property is parsed by
opp_parse_supplies(), which creates a hard dependency on the
opp-microvolt property.
Some platforms, such as Apple Silicon, do not describe their device's
voltage regulators in the DT as they cannot be controlled by the kernel
and/or rely on opaque firmware algorithms to control their voltage and
current characteristics at runtime. We can, however, experimentally
determine the power consumption of a given device at a given OPP, taking
advantage of opp-microwatt to provide EAS on such devices as was
initially intended.
Allow platforms to specify and consume any subset of opp-microvolt,
opp-microamp, or opp-microwatt without a hard dependency on
opp-microvolt to enable this functionality on such platforms.
