All the FEC driver should care about is the FEC logic block inside the SoC. It should not concern itself with the way a SoC happens to bring a clock (PTP clock) to the input of the FEC logic block - that is purely a SoC implementation detail. It makes sense to add fsl,stop-mode (= a GPR bit) to the FEC driver, as this bit is a logic input to the FEC block, which the driver needs to dynamically flip. But the PTP clock is different, because it's statically routed by the SoC. Maybe this problem needs a clock routing solution? Isn't there an imx6q plus clock mux we're not modelling? enet_ref-o------>ext>---pad_clk--| \ | |M |----fec_ptp_clk o-----------------------|_/ Where M = mux controlled by GPR5[9] The issue here is that pad_clk is routed externally, so its parent could be any internal or external clock. I have no idea how to model this in the clock framework.
