As Matthias pointed out earlier, SCPSYS provides more functionality, but the only one that's currently implemented upstream is the System Power Manager, responsible for managing the MTCMOS (power domains). In any case, now I'm a little confused on how to proceed, can you please give some suggestion? Thanks, Angelo > Your DTS should reflect the hardware, not some hacks. > > Best regards, > Krzysztof
