Subject: [PATCH 2/4] pwm: tegra: Increase precision in pwm rate calculation
Date: Wed, 5 Apr 2017 19:43:44 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1491401626-31303-3-git-send-email-ldewangan@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1491401626-31303-1-git-send-email-ldewangan@nvidia.com>

The rate of the PWM calculated as follows:
	hz = NSEC_PER_SEC / period_ns;
 	rate = (rate + (hz / 2)) / hz;

This has the precision loss in lower PWM rate.
Changing this to have more precision as:
	hz = DIV_ROUND_CLOSE(NSEC_PER_SEC * 100, period_ns);
	rate = DIV_ROUND_CLOSE(rate * 100, hz)

Example:
1. period_ns = 16672000, PWM clock rate is 200KHz.
	Based on old formula
		hz = NSEC_PER_SEC / period_ns
		   = 1000000000ul/16672000
		   = 59 (59.98)
		rate = (200K + 59/2)/59 = 3390

	Based on new method:
		hz = 5998
		rate = DIV_ROUND_CLOSE(200000*100, 5998) = 3334

	If we measure the PWM signal rate, we will get more accurate period
	with rate value of 3334 instead of 3390.

2.  period_ns = 16803898, PWM clock rate is 200KHz.
	Based on old formula:
		hz = 60, rate = 3333
	Based on new formula:
		hz = 5951, rate = 3360

	The rate of 3360 is more near to requested period then the 3333.
