The CPU Complex (CCPLEX) Power Manager (Denver MCE, or DMCE) is an
offload engine for BPMP to do voltage related sequencing and for
hardware requests to be handled in a better latency than BPMP-firmware.
There are two interfaces to the MCEs - Abstract Request Interface (ARI)
and the traditional NVGINDEX/NVGDATA interface.
MCE supports various commands which can be used by CPUs - ARM as well
as Denver, for power management and reset functionality. Since the
linux kernel is the master for all these scenarios, each MCE command
can be issued by a corresponding SMC. These SMCs have been moved to
SiP SMC space as they are specific to the Tegra186 SoC.

Tegra186 is the newest SoC in the Tegra family which consists
of two CPU clusters - Denver and A57. The Denver cluster hosts
two next gen Denver15 CPUs while the A57 cluster hosts four ARM
Cortex-A57 CPUs. Unlike previous Tegra generations, all the six
cores on this SoC would be available to the system at the same
time and individual clusters can be powered down to conserve
power.
