Hi,

 I'm trying to get things set up to use TIMER4 (or 5, 6, or 7) to provide 
an external clock source to another component and I'm having some trouble. 
For now I'm happy with just getting the standard 24khz clock, though I may 
want to be able to modify the frequency in the future.

I'm using the Yocto Project (Dora) to build my images and the straight TI 
kernels from the meta-ti layer (linux-ti-staging_3.12) with a static 
devicetree. I've customized my devicetree enough that I'm somewhat 
comfortable with devicetree configs, but I know I'm a long way from having 
real devicetree-fu. That said, I've added the following in an attempt to 
get TIMER4 to come up:

In the am33xx_pinmux section:

        timer4_pins: pinmux_timer4_pins {
          pinctrl-single,pins = <
            0x90 0x12  /* gpmc_advn_ale as TIMER4, OUTPUT_PULLUP | MODE2 */
          >;
        };

And further down (note: I'm not certain this is necessary or correct, but 
it was a shot in the dark):

&timer4_fck {
        pinctrl-names = "default";
        pinctrl-0 = <&timer4_pins>;
        status = "okay";
};

I sadly don't have a scope to verify clock on the TIMER4 pin, but my guess 
is that something's not qorking right from the following reported in 
/sys/kernel/debug/clk/clk_summary (note: I clipped bit after the relevant 
part):

root@beaglebone:/sys/kernel/debug/clk# more clk_summary 
   clock                        enable_cnt  prepare_cnt  rate

       timer4_fck               0           1            24000000  
       timer2_fck               1           1            24000000  
       timer1_fck               1           1            24000000  

I also haven't seen the device that needs the clocking initialize properly 
yet, so that's another tipoff.

Maybe related, I'm also seeing the following in the dmesg:

[    0.132509] platform mpu.1: FIXME: clock-name 'fck' DOES NOT exist in dt!

Any help or pointers would be appreciated. I've tried looking at section 20 
in the AM335x TRM and I get the feeling there's just a register setting or 
two that need to be done, but I'm just beginning to learn the hardware end 
of the universe after many years as a UN*X guy, so I got a bit lost in 
trying to figure out how to do it.

Thanks,

-d
