Subject: [PATCH v2] clk: qcom: ipq-cmn-pll: keep the CMN block bus clocks enabled
Date: Tue, 4 Aug 2026 13:53:59 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260804115359.16633-1-kuncy7@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260730191353.557494-1-kuncy7@gmail.com>
The probe function takes a runtime PM reference to enable the GCC AHB &
SYS clocks of the CMN PLL block, registers the clocks, and then drops
the reference, letting pm_clk gate both clocks a few milliseconds after
probe has returned. The clock ops access the CMN PLL registers without
a runtime PM reference of their own, and on IPQ5018 gating the CMN
block bus clocks makes the SoC hang on a subsequent bus access: boards
died silently within milliseconds of the CMN PLL probe, up to a 100%
reproducible boot loop, depending on binary layout (micro-timing).
Take a devres-managed runtime PM reference in probe, so the bus clocks
stay enabled for as long as the driver is bound and the reference is
released again on unbind.

Changes in v2:
- Use devm_pm_runtime_get_noresume() instead of simply skipping the
pm_runtime_put() on the probe success path. The v1 arrangement left
the usage count elevated with nothing to balance it on unbind; the
devres action releases it. Spotted by the Sashiko automated review
(thanks to Mieczyslaw Nalewaj for pointing it out). Note that
pm_runtime_reinit() on unbind does set the status back to suspended,
so the leak did not have the re-bind consequences the report
suggested - but it was a leak nonetheless, and the devres form is
the idiomatic way to express "keep this device resumed while bound".
- The diff is now purely additive; the existing error handling in
probe is left untouched.
Note for stable: devm_pm_runtime_get_noresume() was added in v6.16 by
commit 73db799bf5ef ("PM: runtime: Add new devm functions"), while this
driver dates back to v6.14. On 6.14.y/6.15.y (both EOL) the equivalent
is to move the pm_runtime_put() out of probe and add one to
ipq_cmn_pll_clk_remove() instead.
