Subject: [RFC PATCH] clk: Implement protected-clocks for all OF clock providers
Date: Mon, 30 Dec 2019 13:31:27 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191230193127.8803-1-samuel@sholland.org> (raw)

This is a generic implementation of the "protected-clocks" property from
the common clock binding. It comes with some caveats:

1) Clocks that have CLK_IS_CRITICAL in their init data are prepared/
enabled before they are attached to the clock tree. protected-clocks are
only protected once the clock provider is added, which is generally
after all of the clocks it provides have been registered. This leaves a
window of opportunity where something could disable or modify the clock,
such as a driver running on another CPU, or the clock core itself. There
is a comment to this effect in __clk_core_init():

  /*
   * Enable CLK_IS_CRITICAL clocks so newly added critical clocks
   * don't get accidentally disabled when walking the orphan tree and
   * reparenting clocks
   */

Similarly, these clocks will be enabled after they are first reparented,
unlike other CLK_IS_CRITICAL clocks. See the comment in
clk_core_reparent_orphans_nolock():

  /*
   * We need to use __clk_set_parent_before() and _after() to
   * to properly migrate any prepare/enable count of the orphan
   * clock. This is important for CLK_IS_CRITICAL clocks, which
   * are enabled during init but might not have a parent yet.
   */

Ideally we could detect protected clocks before they are reparented, but
there are two problems with that:

  i)  From the clock core's perspective, hw->init is const.

  ii) The clock core doesn't see the device_node until __clk_register is
      called on the first clock.

So the only race-free way to detect protected-clocks is to do it in the
middle of __clk_register, between when core->flags is initialized and
calling __clk_core_init(). That requires scanning the device tree again
for each clock, which is part of why I didn't do it that way.

2) __clk_protect needs to be idempotent, for two reasons:

  i)  Clocks with CLK_IS_CRITICAL in their init data are already
      prepared/enabled, and we don't want to prepare/enable them again.
      Note that if the clock did not have CLK_SET_RATE_GATE in its init
      data, it was *not* rate protected during the initial call to
      clk_core_prepare().  As far as I can tell, none of the other flags
      affect the internal state of the clock, so they don't need any
      "parallel reconstruction".

  ii) of_clk_set_defaults() is called twice for (at least some) clock
      controllers registered with CLK_OF_DECLARE. It is called first in
      of_clk_add_provider()/of_clk_add_hw_provider() inside clk_init_cb,
      and again afterward in of_clk_init(). I think that the second call
      in of_clk_init() should be removed, but that would require
      auditing all users of CLK_OF_DECLARE to ensure they called one of
      the of_clk_add{,_hw}_provider functions.

3) It is not clear specifically which flags should be implied by being
in protected-clocks. I took it to mean "this clock is outside of OS
control, so don't modify it, and assume it can change at any time".

For that reason, I added the following flags:
  - CLK_SET_RATE_GATE: prevents clk_set_rate() once prepared
  - CLK_SET_PARENT_GATE: prevents clk_set_parent() once prepared
  - CLK_GET_RATE_NOCACHE: allows the rate to change behind the OS's back
  - CLK_GET_ACCURACY_NOCACHE: ditto for the accuracy
  - CLK_IS_CRITICAL: causes the clock to always be prepared + enabled

Some problems I see with this:

  i)  We are still modifying the clock, once, to prepare/enable it. It
      sounds like this may not be a safe thing to do. But none of the
      protections in the clock core apply if a clock isn't prepared.

      Possibly we could prepare and not enable it, assuming that the
      "enable" step is what actually touches the hardware. However, that
      would have different semantics from existing CLK_IS_CRITICAL
      clocks.

  ii) Protecting the rate protects all ancestor clock rates. This seems
      like an incredibly big hammer, but if we actually aren't allowed
      to change the rate of protected clocks, would actually be
      necessary.

Maybe both of these could be solved with a new flag? Otherwise, the only
way to prevent the clock core from allowing changes to the clock
hardware (and from making the changes itself) is to not register the
clock. Unfortunately, that also won't work in this situation, because
most of the clocks that I need to protect also have Linux drivers (or
their descendants have Linux drivers).

It is also unclear how protected-clocks and assigned-clocks should
interact. For now, it produces an error, since protected-clocks are
handled first.
