[PATCH v2 1/2] Documentation: can: flexcan: Add flexcan clocks' information

[Pankaj Bansal]

The clocking information is missing from flexcan device tree bindings.
This information is needed to be able to use flexcan. Document the same.

[Joakim Zhang] In flexcan driver now, "ipg" is for CHI clock, "per" is for PE clock. I think it's unnecessary to exchange here.

In flexcan driver now, same is clock supplied to both CHI and PE blocks using CTRL[CLK_SRC] = 1
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.1.3/source/drivers/net/can/flexcan.c#L1365

And clock_freq is being calculated using "per".
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.1.3/source/drivers/net/can/flexcan.c#L1515

Therefore, "per" is the CHI clock and "ipg" is PE clock.

As you said, clock_freq calculated by "per", and you can find that priv->can.clock.freq = clock_freq.
And can.clock.freq is used to calculate TQ. You know PE clock is for CAN bus. So I think "per" is for PE.

Did I misunderstand?

PER is being used for CHI as well as PE (because CTRL[CLK_SRC] = 1 https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.1.3/source/drivers/net/can/flexcan.c#L136)
ONLY CHI clock can be supplied to both CHI and PE. (PE clock can only be supplied to PE provided CTRL[CLK_SRC] = 0, and PE clock < CHI clock )
