[PATCH 1/3] arm: dts: qcom: apq8064: Use 27MHz PXO clock as DSI PLL reference

[PATCH 1/3] arm: dts: qcom: apq8064: Use 27MHz PXO clock as DSI PLL reference

[Marijn Suijten]

The 28NM DSI PLL driver for msm8960 calculates with a 27MHz reference
clock and should hence use PXO, not CXO which runs at 19.2MHz.

Note that none of the DSI PHY/PLL drivers currently use this "ref"
clock; they all rely on (sometimes inexistant) global clock names and
usually function normally without a parent clock.  This discrepancy will
be corrected in a future patch, for which this change needs to be in
place first.

Checked the downstream driver, it always uses 27 MHz clock in calculations.

Given our concerns for msm8974 not updating DT in parallel with the 
kernel (hence the need for a global-name fallback because "ref" is 
missing from the DT), should we worry about the same for apq8064?  That 
is, is there a chance that the kernel but not the firmware is upgraded 
leading to the wrong parent clock being used?  The msm8960 variant of 
the 28nm PLL driver uses parent_rate in a few places and might read 
cxo's 19.2MHz erroneously instead of using pxo's 27MHz.

Checked the code. It uses .parent_names =  "pxo", so changing ref
clock should not matter. We'd need to fix ref clocks and after that we
can switch parent names to fw_name.

Correct, hence why this patch is ordered before the switch to .fw_name.
These patches can't go in the same series if apq8064 doesn't update its
firmware in parallel with the kernel just like msm8974.  Do you know if
this is the case?  If so, how much time do you think should be between
the DT fix (this patch) and migrating the drivers?

You can have parent_data with .fw_name and .name in it.  .name will be
used as a fallback if .fw_name doesn't match.

The problem is that it will always find the "ref" clock which references
&cxo_board until the DT is updated with this patch to use &pxo_board
instead.  Question is, will the kernel and DT usually/always be updated
in parallel?

Afaik these devices all boots off a boot.img, which means that it's
unlikely that a new kernel is installed on a device with an older DT.
None of them would boot mainline off the DT that shipped with the
original product.

As such, if I pick this patch up as a fix for 5.15 you can respin the
other two patches and they can land in 5.16 and I would be surprised if
anyone will run into any issues with it.


I.e. I've applied this patch.

That was my understanding as well, DT overlays are a "new thing" afaik
and most devices (at least all Sony's that I'm working with) use an
appended DTB that's always in-sync with the kernel image.

Sounds good, I'll leave this patch out from v2.  Should it have a Fixes:
tag to get backported too?

Since most review seems to be in I'll respin v2 shortly with the
addition of the "ref" clock to msm8974, that should probably get the
same treatment (added to 5.15 fixes) then we can land this patchset in
5.16 (maybe without .name= fallback if Dmitry is okay with that).

I think that with the introduction of DT overlays the system becomes
more flexible and as such more susceptible for bugs caused by unexpected
DT versions.

I think in practice the real issues comes when the DTB is delivered
separately (i.e. not by boot.img) or inbetween two kernel releases where
the Qualcomm tree might not be in sync with the driver tree.

Sounds good, I added to this:

Fixes: 6969d1d9c615 ("ARM: dts: qcom-apq8064: Set 'cxo_board' as ref clock of the DSI PHY")

Sounds good.

Offtopic: We have some problems with this on newer Sony devices where
the BL indeed tries to overlay this DTBO on the DT, which is usually a
downstream DT not fitting on top of a mainline kernel+appended-DTB.  The
solution is to simply wipe DTBO, and afaik it should be fine to compile
the overlay bits directly inside the appended-DTB anyway.  Leads to
unsuspecting problems at times, but it is manageable.

Dmitry sees this as a problem for msm8974 but I'm not familiar enough
with the board.  I take it this doesn't use appended DTBs then?

Did the same on the v2 respin since it seems like those patches were
incomplete without the driver change.

Sent the msm8974 patch separately and re-spun a v2.  I haven't added the
.name="xo" fallback yet while awaiting Dmitry to see if that counts as
enough time for firmware to be delivered between kernel 5.15 and 5.16.
