[PATCH 01/11] firmware: arm_scmi: Add clock determine_rate operation

From: Cristian Marussi

Date: Fri Feb 27 2026 - 10:38:29 EST


Add a clock operation to help determining the effective rate, closest to
the required one, that a specific clock can support.

Calculation is currently performed kernel side and the logic is taken
directly from the SCMI Clock driver: embedding the determinate rate logic
in the protocol layer enables semplifications in the SCMI Clock protocol
interface and will more easily accommodate further evolutions where such
determine_rate logic into is optionally delegated to the platform SCMI
server.

Spoiler alert next SCMI spec will most probably include a new
CLOCK_DETERMINE_RATE command to delegate to the platform such calculations,
so this clock proto_ops will be needed anyway sooner or later
