Subject: [PATCH v2] clk: respect the clock dependencies in of_clk_init

Until now the clock providers were initialized in the order found in
the device tree. This led to have the dependencies between the clocks
not respected: children clocks could be initialized before their
parent clocks.

Instead of forcing each platform to manage its own initialization order,
this patch adds this work inside the framework itself.

Using the data of the device tree the of_clk_init function now delayed
the initialization of a clock provider if its parent provider was not
ready yet.

The strict dependency check (all parents of a given clk must be
initialized) was added by Boris BREZILLON

Since the v1, I have merged the strict dependency check from Boris.
And of course tested on my Armada 370 and Armada XP based board

Hi Mike,

I would like to know if you consider to take the following patch.
If you don't then I will have to amend the patch set adding support
to Armada 375/38x SoC with the same kind of solution that Sebastian
used for the other mvebu clocks.

Thanks,

Gregory

In general this is really great. It's a first step towards sorting out
dependencies between clock providers correctly. I have some comments
inline, though.

Shouldn't this be reflected by a tag of this patch? If you squash a
patch signed off by someone then I believe their sign-off tag should be
added to the base patch. Correct me if I'm wrong, though.

The name is a bit too generic and slightly misleading. IMHO struct
deferred_clk_provider (and deferred_clk_providers for the list) would be
better.

of_clk_get_parent_count() can be used here...

...or even better, __of_clk_get_from_provider() could modified to return
-EPROBE_DEFER if requested provider is not registered and you could
simply call of_clk_get(np, i) and handle its return value appropriately:

- on !IS_ERR(clk) call clk_put() and continue with iterations,
- on IS_ERR(clk) && PTR_ERR(clk) == -EPROBE_DEFER return 0 immediately,
- in any other case end the loop (end of clock specifiers).

This would make CCF even closer to proper handling of provider ordering,
with a nice side effect of handling deferred probe for platform devices.

I wonder if this couldn't be replaced with simply adding all the
providers to the list first and then proceeding with the loop below to
handle the registrations.

Hmm, this is basically the code above repeated without the if. What
about something like the code snippet below?

bool force = false;
while (!list_empty(&clk_provider_list)) {
is_init_done = false;
list_for_each_entry_safe(clk_provider, next,
&clk_provider_list, node) {
if (force || parent_ready(clk_provider->np)) {
clk_provider->clk_init_cb(clk_provider->np);
list_del(&clk_provider->node);
kfree(clk_provider);
is_init_done = true;
}
}

if (!is_init_done)
force = true;
}

Tomasz

Just to add in here, I think the approach is good but agree with Tomasz'

I'm wondering if any of you has followed the discussion that Greg,
Emilio and I had about the need of this change.

If so, can you point out *why* we need to sort out registration
dependency?

It was not really obvious for me to know how to deal with code merged from
someone else, but indeed adding a sign-off tag seems to be sensible.

There is already a patch sent for this "clk: return probe defer when DT clock
not yet ready": http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1643466

Mike will you take it?

Then I can use it to implement the suggestion made by Tomasz.

So here we make the assumption that the device tree is written correctly. I think
it should be acceptable because here we only try to deal with the order
of the clocks providers not the accuracy of the device tree. If the device
tree is wrong then it should trig errors message in other part of the kernel.

Yes you're right

indeed it's better.


Thanks for your review,

I have just merged it to clk-next. I'll push out an updated clk-next
branch later tonight.
