Subject: [PATCH v3 0/4] Add device links to clocks
Hello,
While working on suspend to RAM feature, I ran into troubles multiple
times when clocks where not suspending/resuming at the desired time. I
had a look at the core and I think the same logic as in the
regulator's core may be applied here to (very easily) fix this issue:
using device links.
The only additional change I had to do was to always (when available)
populate the device entry of the core clock structure so that it could
be used later. This is the purpose of patch 1. Patch 2 actually adds
support for device links.
Here is a step-by-step explanation of how links are managed, following
Maxime Ripard's suggestion.
The order of probe has no importance because the framework already
handles orphaned clocks so let's be simple and say there are two root
clocks, not depending on anything, that are probed first: xtal0 and
xtal1. None of these clocks have a parent, there is no device link in
the game, yet.
+----------------+ +----------------+
| | | |
| | | |
| xtal0 core | | xtal1 core |
| | | |
| | | |
+-------^^-------+ +-------^^-------+
|| ||
|| ||
+----------------+ +----------------+
| | | |
| xtal0 clk | | xtal1 clk |
| | | |
+----------------+ +----------------+
Then, a peripheral clock periph0 is probed. His parent is xtal1. The
clock_register_*() call will run __clk_init_parent() and a link between
periph0's core and xtal1's core will be created and stored in
periph0's core->parent_clk_link entry.
+----------------+ +----------------+
| | | |
| | | |
| xtal0 core | | xtal1 core |
| | | |
| | | |
+-------^^-------+ +-------^^-------+
|| ||
|| ||
+----------------+ +----------------+
| | | |
| xtal0 clk | | xtal1 clk |
| | | |
+----------------+ +-------^--------+
|
|
+--------------+
| ->parent_clk_link
|
+----------------+
| |
| |
| periph0 core |
| |
| |
+-------^^-------+
||
||
+----------------+
| |
| periph0 clk 0 |
| |
+----------------+
Then, device0 is probed and "get" the periph0 clock. clk_get() will be
called and a struct clk will be instantiated for device0 (called in
the figure clk 1). A link between device0 and the new clk 1 instance of
periph0 will be created and stored in the clk->consumer_link entry.
+----------------+ +----------------+
| | | |
| | | |
| xtal0 core | | xtal1 core |
| | | |
| | | |
+-------^^-------+ +-------^^-------+
|| ||
|| ||
+----------------+ +----------------+
| | | |
| xtal0 clk | | xtal1 clk |
| | | |
+----------------+ +-------^--------+
|
|
+--------------+
| ->parent_clk_link

| periph0 core |

+----------------+ +----------------+
| | | |
| periph0 clk 0 | | periph0 clk 1 |
| | | |
+----------------+ +----------------+
|
| ->consumer_link
|
|
|
+-------v--------+
| device0 |
+----------------+
Right now, device0 is linked to periph0, itself linked to xtal1 so
everything is fine.
Now let's get some fun: the new parent of periph0 is xtal1. The process
will call clk_reparent(), periph0's core->parent_clk_link will be
destroyed and a new link to xtal1 will be setup and stored. The
situation is now that device0 is linked to periph0 and periph0 is
linked to xtal1, so the dependency between device0 and xtal1 is still
clear.
+----------------+ +----------------+

| | | |
| xtal0 core | | xtal1 core |
| | | |
| | | |
+-------^^-------+ +-------^^-------+
|| ||

| xtal0 clk | | xtal1 clk |

| | | |
+----------------+ +----------------+
|
| ->consumer_link
|
|
|
+-------v--------+
| device0 |
+----------------+
I assume periph0 cannot be removed while there are devices using it,
same for xtal0.
What can happen is that device0 'put' the clock periph0. The relevant
link is deleted and the clk instance dropped.
+----------------+ +----------------+
| | | |
| | | |
| xtal0 core | | xtal1 core |
| | | |

| |
| periph0 core |
| |
| |
+-------^^-------+
||
||
+----------------+
| |
| periph0 clk 0 |
| |
+----------------+
Now we can unregister periph0: link with the parent will be destroyed
and the clock may be safely removed.

This is my understanding of the common clock framework and how links
can be added to it.
As a result, here are the links created during the boot of an
ESPRESSObin:

Thanks,

Changes since v2:
=================
* Fixed compilation issue when not using the common clock framework:
removed the static keyword in front of clk_link/unlink_consumer()
dummy definitions in clkdev.c.
Changes since v1:
=================
* Add clock->clock links, not only device->clock links.
* Helpers renamed:
> clk_{link,unlink}_hierarchy()
> clk_{link,unlink}_consumer()
* Add two patches to pass a "struct device" to the clock registration
helper. This way device links may work between clocks themselves
(otherwise the link is not created).
Miquel Raynal (4):
clk: core: clarify the check for runtime PM
clk: core: link consumer with clock driver
clk: mvebu: armada-37xx-tbg: fill the device entry when registering
the clocks
clk: mvebu: armada-37xx-xtal: fill the device entry when registering
the clock
