How to support RK3399K chip?
The highest frequency of the RK3399K chip can reach 2.016GHz. If the hardware device in your hand uses the RK3399K chip and needs to support RK3399K, manually add the following patch. Take the RK3399K chip supported on the AIO-3399J all-in-one machine as an example:
#Before patching, first confirm whether there is a kernel/arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/rk3399k-opp.dtsi file in the SDK source code
#After confirming that the file exists, manually add the following patch to the final dts, as follows, manually add the following in rk3399-firefly-aio.dts:
