I'm not too convinced about this. While I'm not able to produce a reference from a quick view either into ieee1275 and DTSpec, I believe the DT describes the hardware from software's perspective. That is, there's no point in describing hardware implementation details that have no bearing on software interface (such as a single software-controlled clock being routed to different parts of a chip). Adding Rob to Cc, he will likely be able to clarify. > Now it's a bit hard to make > any definite statements about the Vivante GC GPU module itself, as most > of the information we have is from reverse engineering.
