The manual says that *both* the 0b00 (reset default) and 0b01 values capture both edges, and actually the H6, A133 and H616 have the same bits, and it apparently works there. I don't see those bits documented in the A64 (and earlier), but haven't checked yet whether they exist there regardless or have an effect. So I think we should force those bits either to 0 or to 1, depending on how those bits behave on A64 and before, and how compatible this is with H6, A133, H616. I will try to run some experiments on the weekend. > - SPLCFG (the sample configuration register) bits [1:0] select the > sample clock as a division of the module clock, replacing the > fixed module clock / 64 sample rate of the older IP. That's not fully correct: even the A20(!) has these two bits, actually there is a third bit, held in bit 24 (because reasons). All those bits reset to 0, which is encoded as /64, so this is where the rate comes from. And sunxi_ir_probe() sets the IR clock to 8MHz, which should end up as 24MHz / 3, on all chips, including the A523. So what is going on here? Is the manual wrong, about those bits, or the clock sources? Can you point to the BSP sources, if you used those? > module clock / 256, which together with the 24 MHz module clock Why is the A523 mod clock set to 24 MHz? You seem to do this in the DT, overriding the 8MHz default? The driver clearly has a clk_set_rate() call with that default 8MHz as an argument, and I don't think we should deviate from that, unless there are good reasons. The sample clock should be more of a driver/subsystem decision, not a a device one. > used on the A523 gives a 10.7 μs sample period, close to the 8 μs > of the previous 8 MHz / 64 configuration, and keeps the default > 125 ms idle timeout representable in the 8-bit idle threshold This is some good info that helps people understand the reasoning behind those timing values. Please put this in a comment near the top of the file. But actually: how does this compute? With an 8us sample clock period, the 8-bit ATHR field only covers 2 ms. And I don't see us setting the ATHC bit to bump this by 128.

As mentioned above, those bits exist in earlier IP as well. Typically non-implemented bits in Allwinner IP as RES0, so I think we can program them unconditionally (and should on H6/A133/H616) and don't need a quirks flag. > + * @sample_div_sel: value for the SPLCFG sample-clock divider field (0 on > + * legacy SoCs that lack the field). Same here: those bits exist back to the A20, even. And their meaning didn't change, if I see this correctly. So no quirk needed, instead we should program them explicitly to the value we want (probably 0). > + * @sample_divisor: module-clock divisor that yields the sample clock; matches > + * @sample_div_sel on newer IP, or the fixed /64 on legacy SoCs. That looks odd: why do we have that value in the first place? Following the things I mention above, the divisor shouldn't be different on the A523. And also, I think we should just do the math in the driver, and calculate the divisor, based on some timing requirement. Which could be something like: aim for a clock period of 8us. Though all the parameters seem to be stable: the 24 MHz OSC input, the dividers in the mod clock, and the post dividers in register 0x34. So there wouldn't be much of a calculation, really. But I still think the driver can figure this out itself, and doesn't need explicit telling of a divisor. So I think we would need a separate patch to fix up driver operation before A523. Then the A523 bits should go on top of this. And maybe make this two patches, one for the edge sample bits, one for the clock calculation.
