No, more like there needs to be a WL running in order for SLPC to actively make changes to the requested frequency. > >>> We already check these things in our SLPC selftests. > > Is it then expected to respect the 300MHz max in this case? Or if it > can't, should it be reflected in the sysfs readback? It should respect the 300 Mhz. The only question in my mind is regarding efficient frequency. Can we print out what the RP1 is here?
