[PATCH v3 0/8] mfd: watchdog: rtc: New driver for ST's LPC IP

[PATCH v3 0/8] mfd: watchdog: rtc: New driver for ST's LPC IP

[Lee Jones]

ST's Low Power Controller (LPC) controls two devices; watchdog and RTC.
Only one of the devices can be used at any one time, which is enforced
by the correlating MFD driver.
  
This driver set provides everything you need to choose one (and only
one) of the LPC devices to run per I/P block, of which there are two
on the enabled STiH407 h/w.

Version 3:
 - Move Regmap pointer into core device data structure
 - Remove error message from devm_ioremap_resource
  
Version 2:
 - Only calculate keepalive once in probe()
 - Check for a 0 clk_rate
 - Set limits using predefined attributes from watchdog_device
 - CONFIG_PM => CONFIG_SLEEP
 - Call st_wdog_setup() on resume
 - Remove MFD driver -- instead rely on driver probing mechanism
   which continues attempting to bind to different drivers until
   one does not return -ENODEV

[Lee Jones]

On current ST platforms the LPC controls a number of functions.  This
patch enables support for the LPC Watchdog and LPC RTC devices on LPC1
and LPC2 respectively.

[PATCH v3 4/8] watchdog: bindings: Provide ST bindings for ST's LPC Watchdog device

[Lee Jones]

On current ST platforms the LPC controls a number of functions including
Watchdog and Real Time Clock.  This patch provides the bindings used to
configure LPC in Watchdog mode.

+STMicroelectronics Low Power Controller (LPC) - Watchdog
+========================================================
+
+LPC currently supports Watchdog OR Real Time Clock functionality.
+
+[See: ../rtc/rtc-st-lpc.txt for RTC options]
+
+Required properties
+
+- compatible 	: Must be one of: "st,stih407-lpc" "st,stih416-lpc"
+				  "st,stih415-lpc" "st,stid127-lpc"
+- reg		: LPC registers base address + size
+- interrupts    : LPC interrupt line number and associated flags
+- clocks	: Clock used by LPC device (See: ../clock/clock-bindings.txt)
+- st,lpc-mode	: The LPC can run either one of two modes ST_LPC_MODE_RTC [0] or
+		  ST_LPC_MODE_WDT [1].  One (and only one) mode must be
+		  selected.
+
+Required properties [watchdog mode]
+
+- st,syscfg	: Phandle to syscfg node used to enable watchdog and configure
+		  CPU reset type.
+- timeout-sec	: Watchdog timeout in seconds
+
+Optional properties [watchdog mode]
+
+- st,warm-reset	: If present reset type will be 'warm' - if not it will be cold
+
+Example:
+	lpc@fde05000 {
+		compatible	= "st,stih416-lpc-watchdog";
+		reg		= <0xfde05000 0x1000>;
+		clocks 		= <&clk_s_d3_flexgen CLK_LPC_0>;
+		st,syscfg	= <&syscfg_core>;
+		timeout-sec	= <120>;
+		st,lpc-mode	= <ST_LPC_MODE_WDT>;
+		st,warm-reset;

I was expecting the suspend / resume callbacks would be disabling / enabling
the IP clock.

Is there a reason why it doesn't?

>From looking at the code by this point the watchdog has already been disabled so gating
the IP seems reasonable.

As your now doing a re-spin for Pauls comments, I thought I would send a reminder

[PATCH v3 6/8] rtc: bindings: Provide ST bindings for ST's LPC RTC device

[Lee Jones]

On current ST platforms the LPC controls a number of functions including
Watchdog and Real Time Clock.  This patch provides the bindings used to
configure LPC in RTC mode.

[PATCH v3 7/8] rtc: st: add new driver for ST's LPC RTC

[Lee Jones]

ST's Low Power Controller (LPC) controls two devices; watchdog and RTC.
Only one of the devices can be used at any one time.  This is enforced
by the correlating MFD driver.  This portion of the driver-set controls
the Real Time Clock.

I think all the writel IO accessors in this driver can be replaced
with the *_relaxed variant. This will avoid the overhead of taking a
spinlock in the l2 outer cache part of writel.

Is there a reason for not disabling the IP clock in suspend / resume functions?

Yes, there is no technical reason why we can't use the relaxed
variants.  Will fix.

There is.  It will stop the alarm timer, which is undesirable.

You're really operating on old information.  With much improved L2 cache
support code which went in a year or so ago, for the popular L2 cache
controllers, we don't take a spinlock anymore - we just write to the
register directly.

The spinlock is only present for L2C-220 controllers, which are rare.

Moreover, taking the spinlock is only expensive if you have things like
lockdep enabled, otherwise it should be inline and will be fast.

However, using the _relaxed variants where we can get away with weaker
ordering of the writes to the device is a good thing nevertheless.  I'm
