Re: [PATCH] clk: at91: allow 24 Mhz clock as input for PLL

[Alexander Dahl]

Hello, 

out of curiosity: The SAMA5D27-SOM1-EK board has a 24 MHz crystal, that is 
also what /sys/kernel/debug/clk/clk_summary says and the board runs without 
obvious problems. What is this change improving in real practice then?

The board works, but, the characteristics of the PLL are incorrect.
This can lead to unwanted behavior, like calculating wrong minimum 
values for multipliers, or other issues

In this code here in clk-pll.c for example

if (parent_rate > characteristics->input.max) {
                 tmpdiv = DIV_ROUND_UP(parent_rate, 
characteristics->input.max);
                 if (tmpdiv > PLL_DIV_MAX) 

                         return -ERANGE; 

 

                 if (tmpdiv > mindiv) 

                         mindiv = tmpdiv; 

         }

The divisor is capped by checks, but at another possible requested 
parent rate, this may lead to something wrong, like here, the minimum 
divisor might be greater than what is the real possible one. So in some 
cases it can happen that unwanted results occur.

We may consider at some points to rely on these values more, so, it's 
obvious that they should be correct in the characteristics

So short answer: no improve in your case , where the rates required are 
around 492 Mhz cpu/132 mhz bus (IIRC), but the characteristics need to 
be correct to cover all possible cases.

Is there a Fixes: tag for this? Seems like it was always wrong?

Hi Stephen,

At the initial design , the 12 Mhz was the only possibility for the 
boards themselves. But, with the commit who added this:

Fixes: c561e41ce4d2 ("clk: at91: add sama5d2 PMC driver")
