In that case any reason why you can't reuse the existing smc transport for SCMI. It was added recently in case you haven't checked the latest kernel version(v5.8 or above). Check out for drivers/firmware/arm_scmi/smc.c IIUC rather vaguely Florian was cc-ed on those patches. > we may implement the platform-to-agent channel in the future. This is not yet support with that transport, it is hard to generalise as different vendors have their own solutions there. > An unusual aspect of this driver is how the completion of an SCMI message > is indicated.

I just rejected multiple message support as we had assumed fast smc/hvc. -- Regards, Sudeep
