The PPE (Packet Process Engine) hardware block is available on Qualcomm
IPQ SoC that support PPE architecture, such as IPQ9574.
The PPE in IPQ9574 includes six integrated ethernet MAC for 6 PPE ports,
buffer management, queue management and scheduler functions. The MACs
can connect with the external PHY or switch devices using the UNIPHY PCS
block available in the SoC.
The PPE also includes various packet processing offload capabilities
such as L3 routing and L2 bridging, VLAN and tunnel processing offload.
It also includes Ethernet DMA function for transferring packets between
ARM cores and PPE ethernet ports.
This patch adds the base source files and Makefiles for the PPE driver
such as platform driver registration, clock initialization, and PPE
reset routines.

Can you not just set ppe_dev->icc_paths to ppe_icc_data?
Konrad
The `avg_bw` and `peak_bw` for two of the PPE ICC clocks ('ppe' and
'ppe_cfg') vary across different SoCs and they need to be read from
platform data. They are not pre-defined in `ppe_icc_data` array.
Therefore, we use this format to assign `icc_paths`, allowing us to
accommodate cases where `avg_bw` and `peak_bw` are not predefined.
Hope this is fine. Thanks.
You're currently hardcoding the clock rate, which one of the comments
suggests is where the bw values come from. Is there a formula that we
could calculate the necessary bandwidth based on?
The clock rate for the PPE-related NoC (ICC) is fixed at 353 MHz on the
IPQ9574 platform, as confirmed by the hardware team. There is no formula
required to derive the rate.
We could then clk_get_rate() and do it dynamically
Thank you for the suggestion. Yes, we can use the PPE clock rate as the
configuration value for the PPE NoC clocks, since both operate on the
same clock tree and share the same clock rate. With this, we could use
the clk_get_rate() as you suggested to get the PPE clock rate, which
will be configured to the same rate as the PPE NoC (ICC) clocks.
