[PATCH 0/4] clk: imx: scu: add parsing clocks from device tree support

[PATCH 0/4] clk: imx: scu: add parsing clocks from device tree support

[Aisheng Dong]

This patch series is a preparation for the MX8 Architecture improvement.
As for IMX SCU based platforms like MX8QM and MX8QXP, they are comprised
of a couple of SS(Subsystems) while most of them within the same SS
can be shared. e.g. Clocks, Devices and etc.

However, current device tree is heavily depends on Clocks IDs defined which
cause some troubles in writing the common <soc>-ss-xx.dtsi file.

This patch series adds a new binding to support parsing clocks from device tree
which can fully decouple the dependency of Clock IDs in device tree.
This can make the clock driver much easily to be maintained in the future and
avoid writing a lot of duplicated codes.

[PATCH 1/4] dt-bindings: firmware: imx-scu: new binding to parse clocks from device tree

[Aisheng Dong]

There's a few limitations on one cell clock binding (#clock-cells = <1>)
that we have to define all clock IDs for device tree to reference.
This may cause troubles if we want to use common clock IDs for multi
platforms support when the clock of those platforms are mostly the same.
e.g. Current clock IDs name are defined with SS prefix. However the device
may reside in different SS across CPUs, that means the SS prefix may
not valid anymore for a new SoC. Furthermore, the device availability of
those clocks may also vary a bit.

For such situation, We formerly planned to add all new IDs for each SS
and dynamically check availability for different SoC in driver. That can
be done but that may involve a lot effort and may result in more changes
and duplicated code in driver, also make device tree upstreaming hard which
depends on Clock IDs.

To relief this situation, we want to move the clock definition into
device tree which can fully decouple the dependency of Clock ID definition
from device tree. And no frequent changes required in clock driver any more.

Then we can use the existence of clock nodes in device tree to address the
device and clock availability differences across different SoCs.

For SCU clocks, only two params required, thus two new property created:
rsrc-id = <IMX_SC_R_UART_0>;
clk-type = <IMX_SC_PM_CLK_PER>;

And as we want to support clock set parent function, 'clocks' property
is also used to pass all the possible input parents.

Can't you just make these 2 values clock cells? I'm all for getting rid 
of made up clock numbers.

Thanks for the agreement to remove clock IDs.

The 2 values clock cell seems not the best approach for i.MX because it still needs
to define all clocks in the driver which is exactly we want to avoid now due to some
special HW characteristic:
1. clock resources may be allocated to different SW execution partition by firmware
and A core may not have access rights for those clocks not belong to its partition.
So we want to describe them in DT according to the partition configuration.

2. Each clock is associated with a different power domain which is better to be
described in device tree. And clock state will be lost and need restore after power cycle
of the domain.

Based on above requirements, do you think we can do as below?

//LSIO SS
lsio_scu_clk: lsio-scu-clock-controller {
        compatible = "fsl,imx8qxp-clock", "fsl,scu-clk";

        fspi0_clk: clock-fspi0{
                #clock-cells = <0>;
                rsrc-id = <IMX_SC_R_FSPI_0>;
                clk-type = <IMX_SC_PM_CLK_PER>;
                power-domains = <&pd IMX_SC_R_FSPI_0>;
        };
		
		fspi1_clk: clock-fspi1{
			...
		};
        ...
};    

/* LPCG clocks */
lsio_lpcg_clk: lsio-lpcg-clock-controller {
        compatible = "fsl,imx8qxp-lpcg";

        pwm0_lpcg: clock-controller@5d400000 {
                reg = <0x5d400000 0x10000>;
                #clock-cells = <1>;
                clocks = <&pwm0_clk>, <&pwm0_clk>, <&pwm0_clk>,
                         <&lsio_bus_clk>, <&pwm0_clk>;
                bit-offset = <0 4 16 20 24>;
                clock-output-names = "pwm0_lpcg_ipg_clk",
                                     "pwm0_lpcg_ipg_hf_clk",
                                     "pwm0_lpcg_ipg_s_clk",
                                     "pwm0_lpcg_ipg_slv_clk",
                                     "pwm0_lpcg_ipg_mstr_clk";
                power-domains = <&pd IMX_SC_R_PWM_0>;
                status = "disabled";
        };

		pwm1_lpcg: clock-controller@5d410000 {
				...
		}
        ...
};

And for users, it could simply be:
usdhc1: mmc@5b010000 {
        clocks = <&sdhc0_lpcg 1>,
                 <&sdhc0_lpcg 0>,

Thanks for the agreement to remove clock IDs.

The 2 values clock cell seems not the best approach for i.MX because it still needs
to define all clocks in the driver which is exactly we want to avoid now due to some
special HW characteristic:
1. clock resources may be allocated to different SW execution partition by firmware
and A core may not have access rights for those clocks not belong to its partition.
So we want to describe them in DT according to the partition configuration.

2. Each clock is associated with a different power domain which is better to be
described in device tree. And clock state will be lost and need restore after power cycle
of the domain.

Based on above requirements, do you think we can do as below?

//LSIO SS
lsio_scu_clk: lsio-scu-clock-controller {
        compatible = "fsl,imx8qxp-clock", "fsl,scu-clk";

        fspi0_clk: clock-fspi0{
                #clock-cells = <0>;
                rsrc-id = <IMX_SC_R_FSPI_0>;
                clk-type = <IMX_SC_PM_CLK_PER>;
                power-domains = <&pd IMX_SC_R_FSPI_0>;
        };
		
		fspi1_clk: clock-fspi1{
			...
		};
        ...
};    

/* LPCG clocks */
lsio_lpcg_clk: lsio-lpcg-clock-controller {
        compatible = "fsl,imx8qxp-lpcg";

        pwm0_lpcg: clock-controller@5d400000 {
                reg = <0x5d400000 0x10000>;
                #clock-cells = <1>;
                clocks = <&pwm0_clk>, <&pwm0_clk>, <&pwm0_clk>,
                         <&lsio_bus_clk>, <&pwm0_clk>;
                bit-offset = <0 4 16 20 24>;
                clock-output-names = "pwm0_lpcg_ipg_clk",
                                     "pwm0_lpcg_ipg_hf_clk",
                                     "pwm0_lpcg_ipg_s_clk",
                                     "pwm0_lpcg_ipg_slv_clk",
                                     "pwm0_lpcg_ipg_mstr_clk";
                power-domains = <&pd IMX_SC_R_PWM_0>;
                status = "disabled";
        };

		pwm1_lpcg: clock-controller@5d410000 {
				...
		}
        ...
};

And for users, it could simply be:
usdhc1: mmc@5b010000 {
        clocks = <&sdhc0_lpcg 1>,
                 <&sdhc0_lpcg 0>,
                 <&sdhc0_lpcg 2>;

Why's that? You can walk the DT and extract the 2 cells for each clock
present. That's not any different than walking child nodes here and
getting the resource ids and type. That's not really fast, but if
speed is really an issue we can consider addressing that in ways that
extend rather than change the binding.

Do you have an example? I'd assume you assign peripherals to different
partitions and resource assignment simply follows that. Can clocks not
be available when a peripheral still is?

Can you provide an example that shows the whole hierarchy for a
peripheral. Here you have FSPI, PWM, and MMC. Reviewing SCU clocks and
LPCG clocks separately is not helpful.

Are the power domain ID and rsrc-id always the same for a clock?

I think this wrapper node should be removed and the compatible moved
into the child nodes.

Are all LPCG instances the same, but some clocks are missing if the
child peripheral doesn't use certain clocks? IOW, bit 0 is always
ipg_clk, bit 24 is always ipg_mstr_clk?

Assuming so, 'bit-offset' should be removed and you should either have
a fixed number of clock entries with 0 entries for non-connected
clocks or use clock-names to define which clocks are present (with the
same set of defined names for all LPCG instances).

IMO, this is wrong as the names should be relative to the module. So
'ipg_clk', 'ipg_hf_clk', etc.

IMO, this is wrong as the names should be relative to the module. So
'ipg_clk', 'ipg_hf_clk', etc.

Why's that? You can walk the DT and extract the 2 cells for each clock
present. That's not any different than walking child nodes here and
getting the resource ids and type. That's not really fast, but if
speed is really an issue we can consider addressing that in ways that
extend rather than change the binding.

Do you have an example? I'd assume you assign peripherals to different
partitions and resource assignment simply follows that. Can clocks not
be available when a peripheral still is?

Can you provide an example that shows the whole hierarchy for a
peripheral. Here you have FSPI, PWM, and MMC. Reviewing SCU clocks and
LPCG clocks separately is not helpful.

Are the power domain ID and rsrc-id always the same for a clock?

I think this wrapper node should be removed and the compatible moved
into the child nodes.

Are all LPCG instances the same, but some clocks are missing if the
child peripheral doesn't use certain clocks? IOW, bit 0 is always
ipg_clk, bit 24 is always ipg_mstr_clk?

Assuming so, 'bit-offset' should be removed and you should either have
a fixed number of clock entries with 0 entries for non-connected
clocks or use clock-names to define which clocks are present (with the
same set of defined names for all LPCG instances).

IMO, this is wrong as the names should be relative to the module. So
'ipg_clk', 'ipg_hf_clk', etc.

Yes, it will be much slower.
And there may be duplicated parsing for the same SCU clocks in device nodes.
e.g. LPCG inputs for each outputs may be the same SCU clock and possible other devices.
It's a bit kind of lower efficiency.

Furthermore, for unused clocks by device, it then can't be visible by driver,
also can't use clock framework auto disable unused function.
And it creates a lot complexities in driver implementation to dynamically parse
and register clocks to the same controller.

So IMHO we'd still like the current simple 0 cells binding.

Anyway, if you think 2 cells bindings should be the right direction we have to go,
Just please let me know.
Then we will go that way rather than stop at here.

Yes, resources goes with peripherals assignment.
For the real example on MX8QXP MEK board, we assign flexcan to M4 partition,
then all flexcan related clocks and power domains can't be access anymore
by A core partition.

So far, yes.
I'm still not aware of any clocks use multi power domains.

Yes, I originally did exactly like that.
One benefit of the wrapper is it can save many same compatible strings of the
Same type of clocks in the Soc SS dtsi file which is used to handle SoC compatible
string difference.
e.g 
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10824563/
imx8qxp-ss-adma.dtsi
&uart0_lpcg {
        compatible = "fsl,imx8qxp-lpcg";
};

&uart1_lpcg {
        compatible = "fsl,imx8qxp-lpcg";
};

&uart2_lpcg {
        compatible = "fsl,imx8qxp-lpcg";
};

&uart3_lpcg {
        compatible = "fsl,imx8qxp-lpcg";
};
...

Just let me know if you think having too many repeat compatible strings
Is not problem, then we can remove it.

No, It varies on different LPCG clocks.
You can refer to sdhc&enet for an example at here:

For one certain LPCG, the output clocks is strictly bound to device.
That is how it's named in the HW reference manual.
For example:
PWM0 pwm0_ipg_clk SC_R_PWM_0/SC_PM_CLK_PER SLSLICE5 LPCG_LSIO_IPS_SYNC_PWM0_REGS
So it looks to me better to name to align with the HW doc.

Please let me know if you still think it's not okay.

Yes, it will be much slower.
And there may be duplicated parsing for the same SCU clocks in device nodes.
e.g. LPCG inputs for each outputs may be the same SCU clock and possible other devices.
It's a bit kind of lower efficiency.

Furthermore, for unused clocks by device, it then can't be visible by driver,
also can't use clock framework auto disable unused function.
And it creates a lot complexities in driver implementation to dynamically parse
and register clocks to the same controller.

So IMHO we'd still like the current simple 0 cells binding.

Anyway, if you think 2 cells bindings should be the right direction we have to go,
Just please let me know.
Then we will go that way rather than stop at here.

Yes, resources goes with peripherals assignment.
For the real example on MX8QXP MEK board, we assign flexcan to M4 partition,
then all flexcan related clocks and power domains can't be access anymore
by A core partition.

So far, yes.
I'm still not aware of any clocks use multi power domains.

Yes, I originally did exactly like that.
One benefit of the wrapper is it can save many same compatible strings of the
Same type of clocks in the Soc SS dtsi file which is used to handle SoC compatible
string difference.
e.g 
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10824563/
imx8qxp-ss-adma.dtsi
&uart0_lpcg {
        compatible = "fsl,imx8qxp-lpcg";
};

&uart1_lpcg {
        compatible = "fsl,imx8qxp-lpcg";
};

&uart2_lpcg {
        compatible = "fsl,imx8qxp-lpcg";
};

&uart3_lpcg {
        compatible = "fsl,imx8qxp-lpcg";
};
...

Just let me know if you think having too many repeat compatible strings
Is not problem, then we can remove it.

No, It varies on different LPCG clocks.
You can refer to sdhc&enet for an example at here:

Yes, it will be much slower.
And there may be duplicated parsing for the same SCU clocks in device nodes.
e.g. LPCG inputs for each outputs may be the same SCU clock and possible other devices.
It's a bit kind of lower efficiency.

Furthermore, for unused clocks by device, it then can't be visible by driver,
also can't use clock framework auto disable unused function.
And it creates a lot complexities in driver implementation to dynamically parse
and register clocks to the same controller.

So IMHO we'd still like the current simple 0 cells binding.

Anyway, if you think 2 cells bindings should be the right direction we have to go,
Just please let me know.
Then we will go that way rather than stop at here.

Yes, resources goes with peripherals assignment.
For the real example on MX8QXP MEK board, we assign flexcan to M4 partition,
then all flexcan related clocks and power domains can't be access anymore
by A core partition.

So far, yes.
I'm still not aware of any clocks use multi power domains.

Yes, I originally did exactly like that.
One benefit of the wrapper is it can save many same compatible strings of the
Same type of clocks in the Soc SS dtsi file which is used to handle SoC compatible
string difference.
e.g 
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10824563/
imx8qxp-ss-adma.dtsi
&uart0_lpcg {
        compatible = "fsl,imx8qxp-lpcg";
};

&uart1_lpcg {
        compatible = "fsl,imx8qxp-lpcg";
};

&uart2_lpcg {
        compatible = "fsl,imx8qxp-lpcg";
};

&uart3_lpcg {
        compatible = "fsl,imx8qxp-lpcg";
};
...

Just let me know if you think having too many repeat compatible strings
Is not problem, then we can remove it.

No, It varies on different LPCG clocks.
You can refer to sdhc&enet for an example at here:

For one certain LPCG, the output clocks is strictly bound to device.
That is how it's named in the HW reference manual.
For example:
PWM0 pwm0_ipg_clk SC_R_PWM_0/SC_PM_CLK_PER SLSLICE5 LPCG_LSIO_IPS_SYNC_PWM0_REGS
So it looks to me better to name to align with the HW doc.

Please let me know if you still think it's not okay.

[PATCH 2/4] dt-bindings: clock: imx-lpcg: add support to parse clocks from device tree

[Aisheng Dong]

MX8QM and MX8QXP LPCG Clocks are mostly the same except they may reside
in different subsystems across CPUs and also vary a bit on the availability.

Same as SCU clock, we want to move the clock definition into device tree
which can fully decouple the dependency of Clock ID definition from device
tree. And no frequent changes required in clock driver any more to handle
the difference.

We can use the existence of clock nodes in device tree to address the
device and clock availability differences across different SoCs.

This sounds similar to what TI folks are doing with their new firmware.
It leads to problems where we don't know what in the clk tree needs to
be registered, debugfs is not super helpful in that case, and late init
only turns off clks that are found during probe (so nothing then?).

This looks like one clk per node style of bindings which is a direction
we don't want DT bindings to go in. It leads to a bunch of time parsing
DT to generate clks and in general doesn't represent the clock
controller hardware that is there. Basically, anything with 'bit-offset'
in the binding is not going to be acceptable.

RE: [PATCH 2/4] dt-bindings: clock: imx-lpcg: add support to parse clocks from device tree

[Aisheng Dong]

Hi Stephen,

Sorry for the long email, I want to describe things more clear to help the review.

First, i want to share some backgrounds on how this patch series comes from,
it mainly consists of three reasons:

1. New architecture to save a lot duplicated codes
We want to write a more generic <soc>-ss-<subsys>.dtsi shared by imx8qxp, imx8qm,
imx8dx, imx8dm according to HW characteristic then we'd better decouple the dependency
of Clock ID definitions from device tree due to the SS and device availability difference among them.
[00/14] arm64: dts: imx8: architecture improvement and adding imx8qm support
https://patchwork.kernel.org/cover/10824537/

2. Power domain requirements
Both SCU and LPCG clock access requires it's associated power domain enabled, CCF
already supports it and device tree seems to be the best place to describe it.
e.g. arch/arm64/boot/dts/exynos/exynos5433.dtsi
cmu_aud: clock-controller@114c0000 {
        compatible = "samsung,exynos5433-cmu-aud";
        #clock-cells = <1>;
		....
        power-domains = <&pd_aud>;
};

Furthermore, if the power domain is off (e.g. during system suspend) the clock state
Within this domain will be lost and we have to restored it after power domain is re-enabled.
We'd like to use common driver suspend/resume to handle it.
(In the future, we might support Runtime state save&restore as well in order to shut
down the whole SS if not used, that also need power domain info from DT).

3. Partition support
IMX SCU firmware supports Resource Partition service which allows each device resource
to be partitioned into different ownership groupings that are associated with different
execution environments including multiple operating systems executing on different
cores, TrustZone, and hypervisor.

That means we can't register all the clocks in Linux as some of them may not belong
to us and can't access. (we can check all the clocks via SCU RPC call before register, 
but that also needs a branch of time. However, LPCG not easy to check as it does not provide
resource id). Putting clocks of device in DT allows the dynamically configuration of it according
to the real partition requirements.
E.g. Remove some clock/device nodes once not belong to Linux OS partition or not exist in
hardware on this SoC SS.

AFAICT we know what clocks need to be registered according to the device availability
in each SS (Subsystem) in HW definition.

Debugfs functions the same as defining clocks in driver.
Every cock defined in driver can be defined in device tree according to HW configuration
and displayed with debugfs. So I'm not quite get the point of the concern.
Can you help clarify a bit more?

Same as above.

BTW, we did not support turn off clocks for LPCG during late init.
Probably won't support in the future as LPCG is the next level gates of SCU clocks.
Gating off LPCG clocks while SCU clocks disabled already looks not so meaningful, right?
And gate off such type LPCG is quite expensive as LPCG needs enable its power domain
to access and chip reset already ensures the LPCG clocks are off and the later LPCG
enable/disable also can sync the HW state.

For the parent SCU clocks, we also still don't have the plan to support late gate off because
SCU clock might be shared with M-Core OS or Secure SW (e.g. ATF, OPTee) and A core can't
Gate off those "unused" ones it believes. Currently what we're doing is ensure gate off
power&clocks after using in bootloader before hand over to kernel.

It's one LPCG per node which represents a couple of clock output gates controlled by
this LPCG for one specific module.
For MX8QM/QXP platforms, there're separate LPCGs for each device resource.
LPCGs are independent with each other with separate io space, behaving separate module
clock controllers and they are distributed in different SS (subsystems).
Describing it separately in device tree is more comply with real hardware although
it sacrifices a bit parsing time.

RE: [PATCH 2/4] dt-bindings: clock: imx-lpcg: add support to parse clocks from device tree

[Aisheng Dong]

Hi Stephen,

Sorry for the long email, I want to describe things more clear to help the review.

First, i want to share some backgrounds on how this patch series comes from,
it mainly consists of three reasons:

1. New architecture to save a lot duplicated codes
We want to write a more generic <soc>-ss-<subsys>.dtsi shared by imx8qxp, imx8qm,
imx8dx, imx8dm according to HW characteristic then we'd better decouple the dependency
of Clock ID definitions from device tree due to the SS and device availability difference among them.
[00/14] arm64: dts: imx8: architecture improvement and adding imx8qm support
https://patchwork.kernel.org/cover/10824537/

2. Power domain requirements
Both SCU and LPCG clock access requires it's associated power domain enabled, CCF
already supports it and device tree seems to be the best place to describe it.
e.g. arch/arm64/boot/dts/exynos/exynos5433.dtsi
cmu_aud: clock-controller@114c0000 {
        compatible = "samsung,exynos5433-cmu-aud";
        #clock-cells = <1>;
		....
        power-domains = <&pd_aud>;
};

Furthermore, if the power domain is off (e.g. during system suspend) the clock state
Within this domain will be lost and we have to restored it after power domain is re-enabled.
We'd like to use common driver suspend/resume to handle it.
(In the future, we might support Runtime state save&restore as well in order to shut
down the whole SS if not used, that also need power domain info from DT).

3. Partition support
IMX SCU firmware supports Resource Partition service which allows each device resource
to be partitioned into different ownership groupings that are associated with different
execution environments including multiple operating systems executing on different
cores, TrustZone, and hypervisor.

That means we can't register all the clocks in Linux as some of them may not belong
to us and can't access. (we can check all the clocks via SCU RPC call before register, 
but that also needs a branch of time. However, LPCG not easy to check as it does not provide
resource id). Putting clocks of device in DT allows the dynamically configuration of it according
to the real partition requirements.
E.g. Remove some clock/device nodes once not belong to Linux OS partition or not exist in
hardware on this SoC SS.

This is not one clk per node but one clock controller per node which strictly
describes the HW.

On MX8, each LPCG is a separate clock controller which can control a couple of
clock output gates for one specific device to use. Each device has a corresponding
LPCG clock controller and those LPCGs are independent with each other with
separate IO space.

Those LPCGs are distributed in various SS (subsystems) along with device resources.
Describing them in device tree SS dtsi doesn't seem to be an issue as it is representing
the real hardware.

For SCU clocks, they're similar case that each SS having separate clock controllers
In HW which are managed by SCU firmware. So it seems also okay to put them
in device tree SS dtsi file, right?

If you're concerning each node having one compatible string, how about doing like
many power domain does as below?

Having only one compatible string in clock parent nodes.

//LSIO SS
lsio_scu_clk: lsio-scu-clock-controller {
        compatible = "fsl,imx8qxp-clock", "fsl,scu-clk";

        fspi0_clk: clock-fspi0{
                #clock-cells = <0>;
                rsrc-id = <IMX_SC_R_FSPI_0>;
                clk-type = <IMX_SC_PM_CLK_PER>;
                power-domains = <&pd IMX_SC_R_FSPI_0>;
        };
		
		fspi1_clk: clock-fspi1{
			...
		};
        ...
};    

/* LPCG clocks */
lsio_lpcg_clk: lsio-lpcg-clock-controller {
        compatible = "fsl,imx8qxp-lpcg";

        pwm0_lpcg: clock-controller@5d400000 {
                reg = <0x5d400000 0x10000>;
                #clock-cells = <1>;
                clocks = <&pwm0_clk>, <&pwm0_clk>, <&pwm0_clk>,
                         <&lsio_bus_clk>, <&pwm0_clk>;
                bit-offset = <0 4 16 20 24>;
                clock-output-names = "pwm0_lpcg_ipg_clk",
                                     "pwm0_lpcg_ipg_hf_clk",
                                     "pwm0_lpcg_ipg_s_clk",
                                     "pwm0_lpcg_ipg_slv_clk",
                                     "pwm0_lpcg_ipg_mstr_clk";
                power-domains = <&pd IMX_SC_R_PWM_0>;
                status = "disabled";
        };
        ...
};

I also have spent a lot time to investigate how TI and Samsung does. However, 
finally i.MX is still different and I still believe current way is better for i.MX,
mainly due to below reasons:

1) IMX having separate clock controllers in HW, not shared one like others
2) IMX SoC is comprised of various HW SS (Subsystem) while others don't have.

This is not one clk per node but one clock controller per node which strictly
describes the HW.

On MX8, each LPCG is a separate clock controller which can control a couple of
clock output gates for one specific device to use. Each device has a corresponding
LPCG clock controller and those LPCGs are independent with each other with
separate IO space.

Those LPCGs are distributed in various SS (subsystems) along with device resources.
Describing them in device tree SS dtsi doesn't seem to be an issue as it is representing
the real hardware.

For SCU clocks, they're similar case that each SS having separate clock controllers
In HW which are managed by SCU firmware. So it seems also okay to put them
in device tree SS dtsi file, right?

If you're concerning each node having one compatible string, how about doing like
many power domain does as below?

Having only one compatible string in clock parent nodes.

//LSIO SS
lsio_scu_clk: lsio-scu-clock-controller {
        compatible = "fsl,imx8qxp-clock", "fsl,scu-clk";

        fspi0_clk: clock-fspi0{
                #clock-cells = <0>;
                rsrc-id = <IMX_SC_R_FSPI_0>;
                clk-type = <IMX_SC_PM_CLK_PER>;
                power-domains = <&pd IMX_SC_R_FSPI_0>;
        };
		
		fspi1_clk: clock-fspi1{
			...
		};
        ...
};    

/* LPCG clocks */
lsio_lpcg_clk: lsio-lpcg-clock-controller {
        compatible = "fsl,imx8qxp-lpcg";

        pwm0_lpcg: clock-controller@5d400000 {
                reg = <0x5d400000 0x10000>;
                #clock-cells = <1>;
                clocks = <&pwm0_clk>, <&pwm0_clk>, <&pwm0_clk>,
                         <&lsio_bus_clk>, <&pwm0_clk>;
                bit-offset = <0 4 16 20 24>;
                clock-output-names = "pwm0_lpcg_ipg_clk",
                                     "pwm0_lpcg_ipg_hf_clk",
                                     "pwm0_lpcg_ipg_s_clk",
                                     "pwm0_lpcg_ipg_slv_clk",
                                     "pwm0_lpcg_ipg_mstr_clk";
                power-domains = <&pd IMX_SC_R_PWM_0>;
                status = "disabled";
        };
        ...
};

I also have spent a lot time to investigate how TI and Samsung does. However, 
finally i.MX is still different and I still believe current way is better for i.MX,
mainly due to below reasons:

1) IMX having separate clock controllers in HW, not shared one like others
2) IMX SoC is comprised of various HW SS (Subsystem) while others don't have.
  Describing clocks in DT can help a better SW architecture to describe HW.
3) Each clock is associated with a power domain. DT is the best place to indicate it.
4) Clock availability (Both SCU and LPCG) are configurable according to
  different HW partition configuration by SCU firmware.
  Defining them all in driver will cause annoying and continued churn in driver
  all the time when adding new SoC support.
  e.g. 
  Handling availability for different SS in different SoC.
  Defining Clock IDs for diferent SS in different SoC for same clocks.

By putting clocks in DT, we can make the clock driver completely generic and
no more churn in the driver anymore in the future for adding new SoC support.
It can significantly save the driver maintain effort.

Last, this won't break compatibility. It's just introduce a new binding.

Shawn is okay with the whole point of MX8 Arch improvement[1]. 
(e.g. moving clocks into DT)
But we still need the your agreement on the clock part first.
Could you help review if this is okay to you?

(e.g. moving clocks into DT)
But we still need the your agreement on the clock part first.
Could you help review if this is okay to you?
