[PATCH RFC v5 0/4] clk: add support for v1 / v2 clock rate negotiation and kunit tests

[PATCH RFC v5 0/4] clk: add support for v1 / v2 clock rate negotiation and kunit tests

[Brian Masney]

The Common Clock Framework is expected to keep a clock’s rate stable
after setting a new rate with:

    clk_set_rate(clk, NEW_RATE);

Clock consumers do not know about the clock hierarchy, sibling clocks,
or the type of clocks involved. However, several longstanding issues
affect how rate changes propagate through the clock tree when
CLK_SET_RATE_PARENT is involved, and the parent's clock rate is changed:

- A clock in some cases can unknowingly change a sibling clock's rate.
  More details about this particular case are documented at:
  https://lore.kernel.org/linux-clk/20250528-clk-wip-v2-v2-2-0d2c2f220442@redhat.com/

- No negotiation is done with the sibling clocks, so an inappropriate
  or less than ideal parent rate can be selected.

A selection of some real world examples of where this shows up is at
[1]. DRM needs to run at precise clock rates, and this issue shows up
there, however will also show up in other subsystems that require
precise clock rates, such as sound.

This series introduces kunit tests to illustrate the current behavior in
the clk core. As discussed at Linux Plumbers Conference 2025 in Tokyo
[2], it was suggested to move the negotiation logic into the clk
providers themselves so that only the clks with this issue can have
their rate preserved, and add some common helpers to the clk core.

Note I am marking this series as a RFC because:

- I only have kunit tests, and there's no actual real users of these
  new helpers. (kunit doesn't count.) I'm hoping to get feedback from
  Stephen if this is what he had in mind for an acceptable solution
  based on earlier discussions. In the mean time, I'll see if I can
  get a board that has this issue, or work with someone in another
  company that can test this for me.

- I feel like the names of some of these newly-introduced members
  could be improved. Naming things can be hard.

Changes since v4:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-clk/20250923-clk-tests-docs-v4-0-9205cb3d3cba@redhat.com/
- Reworked based on feedback at Linux Plumbers [2] as described in two
  paragraphs above.
- Dropped gate and mux tests.

Changes since v3:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250812-clk-tests-docs-v3-0-054aed58dcd3@redhat.com
- Update clk_core struct members (Maxime)
- Add v2 rate negotiation logic and additional kunit tests
- Drop clk_dummy_rate_mhz() in kunit tests; use HZ_PER_MHZ

[PATCH RFC v5 2/4] clk: test: introduce test suite for sibling rate changes on a divider

[Brian Masney]

Introduce a test suite that creates a parent with two divider-only
children, and add kunit tests that document the current behavior when a
sibling clk can unknowingly change the rate of another clk. Some boards
are unknowingly dependent on this behavior, and per discussions at the
2025 Linux Plumbers Conference in Tokyo, we can't break the existing
behavior. So let's add kunit tests with the current behavior so that
we can be made aware if that functionality changes in the future.

[PATCH RFC v5 3/4] clk: add support for coordinated rate changes from the providers

[Brian Masney]

Some clock topologies require multiple clocks to change rates in a
specific sequence to maintain stability and avoid glitches. For example,
sibling clocks derived from a shared parent may need coordinated updates
to prevent output disruption.

The existing rate change propagation mechanism changes clocks
recursively from parent to children, but doesn't provide a way for
providers to explicitly control the order of rate changes across
multiple clocks or coordinate updates among siblings.

At the moment, changes to sibling clocks can unknowingly affect the
rate of other clocks in the tree, and some boards are unknowingly
dependent on this behavior.

Let's add infrastructure to the clk core so that clks can opt into
a new way to allow changing the rates of multiple clks by:

- Add a CLK_V2_RATE_NEGOTIATION flag for clks that want to participate
  in this new negotiation logic.

- A clk provider calls clk_hw_get_v2_stable_clks() to get the list of
  clks with this set as part of the planning phase.

- It is up the to clk provider to determine what the new parent rate
  should be for that part of the clk subtree.

- The clk provider calls clk_hw_add_coordinated_rate_changes() for any
  clks that should have also their rate changed. It is up to the
  provider to provide the correct order that the clks should be changed.

- The clk core executes the rate changes serially in the order
  specified by the provider.

If the change list is empty, then the behavior falls back to the
existing propagation mechanism to maintain compatibility with existing
clk drivers.

[PATCH RFC v5 4/4] clk: test: add kunit test for coordinated rate change

[Brian Masney]

Add kunit tests to demonstrate how to use the coordinated rate change
clk APIs, and to validate that they are working as expected.

Thanks for the report. I forgot to mark my series dependent on this on
series I had posted that includes units.h.

If anyone tries to test this, then you'll also need to apply this
series from me that includes units.h in clk-test.c.

I forgot to mark that as a dependency in b4.

I came up with an idea to simplify this patch set even more, so folks
can skip reviewing this version. I'll post a new even more simplified
version next week hopefully.
