But this code also supports ENET and ESDHCI clocks on i.MX6Q (as
supporting those was the motivator for this work).

One important thing to be aware of - the problem with SPL's footprint.
The implementation with clock.c is small and simple, but doesn't scale
well.

Yes, code size (especially in SPL) is an _important_ factor here.

For example the barebox managed to get subset of Linux CCF ported,
without loosing the CCF similarity.


Important factors/requirements for the i.MX clock code:

1. Easy maintenance in long-term

2. Reusing the code in SPL (with a very important factor of
_code_size_).

3. Reuse the code for

We rely on leveraging Linux when possible for a lot of reasons.  First,
it's generally going to have to solve most of the same problems we have
to solve.  Second, it's what most folks are going to be familiar with.
So if we can strip down that same framework to work for us, it'll make
life easier on everyone involved.

As per my experience the main the over-ahead to handle clocks in
U-Boot if we go with separate clock drivers is for Video and Ethernet
peripherals. these are key IP's which use more clocks from U-Boot
point-of-view, others can be handle pretty straight-forward unless if
they don't have too much tree chain.

On this series, the tree management is already supported ENET in
i.MX6, and Allwinner platforms.

As of now, I'm thinking I can handle reset of the clocks with similar way.

Allwinner clocks also has similar gates, muxs, and with other platform
stuff which has too much scope in Linux to use CCM.

I don't know why we rely too-much on Linux to import the big stack
code, since the requirement of U-Boot here is to handle the clocks as
minimum(as required) as compared to what OS is looking for.

Are we looking for handling clock tree management for a whole or
looking as required (or as simple) is the main criteria to think
about.

Now i.MX6 is using clock.c CLK implementation. If we decide to
replace it - we shall do it in a way, which would allow us to follow
Linux kernel. (the barebox implementation is a stripped CCF from
Linux, the same is in patch [1]).

I do have a gut feeling, that we will end up with the need to have the
CCF framework ported anyway. As for example imx7/8 can re-use muxes,
gates code.

However, those are only my "feelings" after a glimpse look - I will look
into your code more thoroughly and provide feedback.

I'm not Allwinner expert - but if I may ask - how far away is this
implementation from mainline Linux kernel?

How difficult is it to port the new code (or update it)?

Fabio, Stefano what do you think?

As we change the clock.c code, IMHO we shall do the new port properly.

The U-Boot implementation of CLK would require as minimal and simple
as possible due to requirement of U-Boot itself. Hope you agree this
point? if yes having CCF stack code to handle all clock with
respective separate drivers management is may not require as of now,
IMHO.

This series is using recursive calls for handling parenting stuff to
handle get or set rates, which is fine for handling clock tree
management as far as U-Boot point-of-view. We have faced similar
situation as I explained in commit message about Allwinner clocks [2]
and we ended up going this way.

The patches where I get introduced clock tree is based on muxes, gates
which were similar like Linux but I've managed to update according to
U-Boot need. I have tried enet, enet_ref clocks as well and those are
working out-of-box.

Feel free to comments, I have no intention to block anything. let's
have a proper discussion.

Hmm It looks like we are doing some development in parallel.

Please look into following commit [1]:
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1034051/

It ports from Linux 5.0 the CCF framework for iMX6Q, which IMHO in the
long term is a better approach.
The code is kept simple and resembles the code from Barebox.

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but the code from your work is not
modeling muxes, gates and other components from Linux CCF.

[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 00/10] clk: imx: Add i.MX6 CLK support

2019-04-02 Thread Jagan Teki
This is revised version of previous i.MX6 clock management [1]. 

The main difference between previous version is
- Group the i.MX6 ccm clocks into gates and tree instead of handling the 
  clocks in simple way using case statement.
- use gate clocks for enable/disable management.
- use tree clocks for get/set rate or parent traverse management.
- parent clock handling via clock type.
- traverse the parent clock using recursive functionlaity.

The main motive behind this tree framework is to make the clock tree 
management simple and useful for U-Boot requirements instead of garbing 
Linux clock management code.

We are trying to manage the Allwinner clocks with similar kind, so having 
this would really help i.MX6 as well.

Added simple names for clock macros, but will update it in future
version.

I have skipped ENET clocks from previous series, will add it in future
patches.

Changes for v2:
- changed framework patches.
- add support for imx6qdl and imx6ul boards
- add clock gates, tree.
