[RFC PATCH 2/7] firmware: arm_scmi: Allow protocols to register for notifications

Cristian Marussi cristian.marussi at arm.com
Fri Jun 20 12:28:08 PDT 2025


Allow protocols themselves to register for their own notifications and
providing their own notifier callbacks. While at that, allow for a protocol
to register events with compilation-time unknown report/event sizes: such
events will use the maximum transport size.
