Hello,
This series adds support for RISC-V Platform Management Interface (RPMI) to
U-Boot. RPMI is an OS-agnostic protocol for communication between an
Application Processor (AP) and a Platform Microcontroller (PuC) [1]. The
goals and purpose of RPMI are similar to ARM's SCMI.
From the first look it looks like SCMI. Why do you introducing something what
can be replaced by SCMI?
And SCMI has only specific ARM transport layer but the rest is arch independent.
In our case where we have Microblaze V in programmable logic I can't see any
reason to use RPMI for talking to the same server if I need to do it from ARM
side too via SCMI.
I pretty much think that there should be communication with ARM and instead of
creating another firmware interface talk to each other and have only one which
can be used across multiple architectures.
Thanks,
