In theory it's possible that a driver requests a non-exact clock from the dpll, and when it gets an error, it does something else. The path that worries me at the moment is the set-rate path. That calls __clk_round_rate() (if the user hasn't called it already) and silently tries to set the clock to the altered rate. Hmm, so you mean a driver could call set_rate, and presume it only uses exact rates the dpll can produce, and presumes that set_rate returns an error if the dpll cannot produce the requested rate? Isn't that what I said? If a driver has such behavior, I think it still doesn't work, as (correct me if I'm wrong) we always have the clk-divider after a dpll. And the clk-divider doesn't handle the error, so neither can the driver. Or what kind of scenario do you have in mind? Tomi signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Hi Mike/Paul,
(sorry for top-posting)
any comments here, what do we do ? Do we split this patch ? Use v1 ? Use
v2 ?
cheers

So that's one possible rounding policy; maybe it works fine for a display
interface PLL, at least for some values of closest rate. But another
might be only allow a selection from a set of pre-determined rates
characterized by the silicon validation team. Or another rounding
function might need to select a more distant rate that minimizes jitter,
EMI, or power consumption.
Thought about this some more. Do you only need this for the DSS PLL, or
do you need it for one of the core OMAP PLLs?
If the former, then how about modifying your patch to create a separate
round_rate function that's only used for the DSS PLL that implements the
behavior that you want?
That would eliminate any risk of impacting other users on the system. And
would also allow this change to get into the codebase much faster, since
there's no need for clk API changes, etc.
How about this one:

Btw, I'm fine with my v2 patch, but I think the original one is fine also. It's true that the original patch changes the dpll behavior when an exact match is not found.

And as clk-divider doesn't handle the error from dpll in any way, and instead returns bogus rates, I presume all our drivers use exact clocks. So v2 is perhaps slightly safer option, but I'm not sure if the added complexity (even if quite small) is worth it. Tomi signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

In the past, we had rate tolerance code, which allowed the clock code to return an approximate rate within some margin. See for example commit 241d3a8dca239610d3d991bf58d4fe38c2d86fd5 (OMAP2+: clock: remove the DPLL rate tolerance code). The rate tolerance was set at compile-time, but it was set on a per-PLL basis, which in theory allowed PLLs responsible for audio, etc. to have a very low rate tolerance, but PLLs that only drove internal functional blocks to have a high rate tolerance. Part of the reason why this was removed is because some of the TI hardware guys didn't want any PLL rates used that were not explicitly characterized. Ok.

Or another rounding function might need to select a more distant rate that minimizes jitter, EMI, or power consumption. Seems to me that there needs to be some way for a clock user to communicate its requirements along these lines to the clock framework for use by the rate rounding code. At the very least, some kind of [min, max] interval seems appropriate. Also I've often thought that it would be useful for your purposes to be able to query a clock to return a list or some other parametric description of the rates that it can provide. I fully agree with all you said above. However, I'm not trying to fix the omap clock framework here =). I just want the displays to work properly in mainline kernel. So, presuming this was merged, and gets display working, how would it affect other users compared to the current state? The patched version returns the same rate than before, if an exact match is found. Rounded rate is only returned as a last option, instead of an error. Do we have drivers that handle that error somehow, and then do something (what?) to get some other rate? If the clock path in question also has a divider component after the pll, using clk-divider.c (which I guess is used in all/most of the DPLLs?), things would go badly wrong if there's an error, as clk-divider.c doesn't handle it. So I can make no guarantees, but I have a hunch that all current users ask for an exact clock, in which case this patch doesn't change their behavior, except for display which it fixes. no further updates here ?

The rate tolerance was set at compile-time, but it was set on a per-PLL basis, which in theory allowed PLLs responsible for audio, etc. to have a very low rate tolerance, but PLLs that only drove internal functional blocks to have a high rate tolerance. Part of the reason why this was removed is because some of the TI hardware guys didn't want any PLL rates used that were not explicitly characterized. Ok. What this basically means is that the user of the clock needs to know what rates the dpll can support, which obviously isn't right. In principle I agree with you, but I'm not sure that this rate rounding function is the solution. This patch adds a simple method of rounding: during the iteration, the code keeps track of the closest rate match. If no exact match is found, the closest is returned. So that's one possible rounding policy; maybe it works fine for a display interface PLL, at least for some values of closest rate. But another might be only allow a selection from a set of pre-determined rates characterized by the silicon validation team. Or another rounding function might need to select a more distant rate that minimizes jitter, EMI, or power consumption. Seems to me that there needs to be some way for a clock user to communicate its requirements along these lines to the clock framework for use by the rate rounding code. At the very least, some kind of [min, max] interval seems appropriate. Also I've often thought that it would be useful for your purposes to be able to query a clock to return a list or some other parametric description of the rates that it can provide. I fully agree with all you said above. However, I'm not trying to fix the omap clock framework here =). I just want the displays to work properly in mainline kernel. So, presuming this was merged, and gets display working, how would it affect other users compared to the current state? The patched version returns the same rate than before, if an exact match is found. Rounded rate is only returned as a last option, instead of an error. Do we have drivers that handle that error somehow, and then do something (what?) to get some other rate? If the clock path in question also has a divider component after the pll, using clk-divider.c (which I guess is used in all/most of the DPLLs?), things would go badly wrong if there's an error, as clk-divider.c doesn't handle it. So I can make no guarantees, but I have a hunch that all current users ask for an exact clock, in which case this patch doesn't change their behavior, except for display which it fixes.

Do you only need this for the DSS PLL, or do you need it for one of the core OMAP PLLs? If the former, then how about modifying your patch to create a separate round_rate function that's only used for the DSS PLL that implements the behavior that you want? That would eliminate any risk of impacting other users on the system. And would also allow this change to get into the codebase much faster, since there's no need for clk API changes, etc. The DSS internal PLLs are handled by the DSS driver, which does all kinds of iteration to find good clocks. This patch is for a dedicated display PLL, present on, for example, BeagleBoneBlack. If you think that's better approach, I can take a look how it can be done (I'm not too familiar with the clock framework). Or maybe there's a possibility to have a flag of some kind, which allows rounded values to be returned? That sounds like an easy addition too. Note that the same change is needed for DT and non-DT boots. Having separate round function would mean create a new clock driver (i.e. compatibility string), wouldn't it? Adding a flag sounds easier.

Paul Tero, please ack if you want me to queue this.
The patches look good to me and based on quick testing they don't seem
to cause any visible problems (namely this one), so acked.
