PATCH 1/1 can: flexcan: add 2nd clock to support imx53 and newer

From: Steffen Trumtrar <[email protected]>

This patch add support for a second clock to the flexcan driver. On modern freescale ARM cores like the imx53 and imx6q two clocks ("ipg" and "per") must be enabled in order to access the CAN core.

In the original driver, the clock was requested without specifying the connection id, further all mainline ARM archs with flexcan support (imx28, imx25, imx35) register their flexcan clock without a connection id, too.

This patch first renames the existing clk variable to clk_ipg and adds the connection id "ipg" to the clk_get() call. Then a second clock "per" is requested. As all archs don't specify a connection id, both clk_get return the same clock. This ensures compatibility to existing flexcan support and adds support for imx53 at the same time.

After this patch hits mainline, the archs may give their existing flexcan clock the "ipg" connection id and implement a dummy "per" clock.

This patch has been tested on imx28 (unmodified clk tree) and on imx53 with a seperate "ipg" and "per" clock.

This isn't a problem, the clock is just enabled twice. As soon as this patch is mainline the clock tree on the one-clock-for-flexcan archs can modify their clock tree. I've commented on this in the commit message, have you read it?

Yes, good catch.

Is it allowed to call clk_put with a NULL pointer? Both clocks can be NULL, if the frequency is defined via the device tree, this is case for powerpc.

PATCH 1/1 can: flexcan: add 2nd clock to support imx53 and newer

In reply to Marc Kleine-Budde
Quoted 4 lines · Marc Kleine-Budde

Yes, good catch.

Is it allowed to call clk_put with a NULL pointer?

As NULL is a valid clock by definition it is allowed to do this. However, calling clk_put with a NULL pointer when a corresponding call to clk_get never returned NULL is probably not a good idea.

Yes, good catch.

Is it allowed to call clk_put with a NULL pointer? Both clocks can be NULL, if the frequency is defined via the device tree, this is case for powerpc.

This has been discussed here already several times. Everything returned by clk_get() that does not satisfy the IS_ERR() check, is a valid clk cookie and can be used for the clk API calls.

This patch add support for a second clock to the flexcan driver. On modern
freescale ARM cores like the imx53 and imx6q two clocks ("ipg" and "per") must be enabled in order to access the CAN core.

I've switched to devm completely (see Patch v2), so the clk_put is obsolete.

In this particular driver the NULL pointer in question is not returned via the clk_get(). On powerpc we don't use clk_get(), because it's not working (AFIAK) on the p1010 (the powerpc arch that has a flexcan).
