I can understand the missing description for the above commands, but for the
list below, no. What does QCOM_SCMI_SET_PARAM do exactly ? All I can
understand is the syntax of the interface with below details. What is the
algorithm string ? Is it fixed or choice of the caller ? If fixed, can we
have that list here ?

And how is it related to the algorithm string ? Sorry details please. Based on
the quality firmware we have seen so far, I will be more pedantic, you need to
be patient to make any progress and I don't want to deal with the Qcom
firmware mess with all these. I will make you specify every single detail and
the code will just be compliant with that. Anything else will be firmware bug
that needs to be fixed in the firmware. Sorry, I don't see any other approach
will make anyone's life easier here.

So there is a fixed list from the above statement IIUC. So kindly list them
here in this document. I may need to follow the last version but I would
prefer you to explicitly mention how is the MEMLAT protocol in the previous
version gets used here ? I just can't understand that from these description.

What is this activity ? How will the firmware know what is that ? All possible
details please if there are all hidden in the buffer too.
