[PATCH 0/2] fdt: translate address if #size-cells = <0>

[Dario Binacchi]

The series comes from my commit in U-boot
d64b9cdcd4 ("fdt: translate address if #size-cells = <0>")
and from the subsequent exchange of emails at the end of which I was
suggested to send the patch to the linux kernel
(https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/uboot/patch/1614324949-61314-1-git-send-email-bmeng.cn@gmail.com/).

The second patch of the series aims to demonstrate that the first one, which
enables the translation of addresses also for crossings of DT nodes
with #size-cells = <0>, it really works.

[PATCH 2/2] clk: ti: get register address from device tree

[Dario Binacchi]

Until now, only the register offset was retrieved from the device tree
to be added, during access, to a common base address for the clocks.
If possible, we try to retrieve the physical address of the register
directly from the device tree.

The physical address is derived from the base address of the clock 
provider, it is not derived from the clock node itself.

Doing what this patch does may actually break things, as you end up 
creating an individual ioremap for every single clock register, and they 
are typically a word apart from each other. In the TI clock driver case, 
the ioremap is done only once for the whole clock register space.

It's 'ranges' that determines translatable which is missing from the
DT. This should have not had a 0 size either though maybe we could
support that.

Does the DT have to be updated anyways for your spread spectrum support?

I don't seem to have the 2nd patch... In any case, you should handle
the special case for this platform in code for the platform.

The spread spectrum support patch does not need this patch to work. They belong 
to two different series.

That's not what I asked. Is the spread spectrum support forcing a DT
update for users? If the DT has to be changed anyways (not really
great policy), then you could fix this in the DT at the same time.

Yes, the deltam and modfreq registers must be added to the DPLL clocks.

I could put the fix to the device tree in that series, although I wouldn't 
create a single patch to fix and add the SSC registers. First the size-cells = <0> 
fix patch and then the SSC patch. 
Do you agree?

That's a shame given this dts has been mostly untouched since 2013.

By at the same time, I really just meant within 1 release.

But I'd like to hear TI maintainers' thoughts on this.

I think technically it would be possible to map these registers within 
the driver also, seeing there are like a handful of the DPLLs for both 
am3/am4 which are impacted. Just add a new compatible or something, or 
alternatively parse the register addresses and populate the 
deltam/modfreq registers based on that.

I did post a comment on patch #1 questioning the approach from TI clock 
driver perspective, imho I can't see why these two patches would be 
needed right now.

I have not added new compatibles, but I have added the offset of the delta and modfreq 
registers to the data structures used by the DPLL drivers and I have set them in the 
related setup functions.

Because U-boot maintainers asked me after I sent them my patch on this issue. 
I believe that the email exchange that took place in the U-boot (https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/uboot/patch/1614324949-61314-1-git-send-email-bmeng.cn@gmail.com/)
and Linux kernel mailing lists showed that:
- The patch 'fdt: translate address if # size-cells = <0>' is wrong (U-boot has accepted 
  it, and it will have to be reverted).
- However, the same patch highlighted that it is wrong to use the size-cells = <0> property 
  in the prcm_clocks and scm_clocks nodes of device tree.
- Rob agrees that in the case of the am3xx this is the right choice:

   The other changes to develop affect device trees of architectures which, like am3, currently

IMHO, all this would lead to an improvement of the device trees with minimal impact on the code. 
It would benefit U-boot, which would not have to develop special platform code and any new 
architectures that would inherit from these DTs.

If you think it might be worth it, I am available to develop this patch.

True, I just said that technically it would be possible to add this data 
within the driver itself to avoid modifying DT if that would be preferred.

Fix to above, it was patch #2 I was referring to.

Well, I don't quite like where this is ending at. Basically you are just 
modifying the am3/am4 DTs adding a size spec for every clock node. This 
leaves the omap3/omap4/omap5/dra7 in the old format. Should someone 
convert those also? Has anybody tested what happens with the u-boot 
change on those platforms? Or with the kernel change proposed for the TI 
clock driver?

Also, none of this changes the fact that imho patch #2 in this series is 
wrong and should be fixed. Doing ioremap for every clock node is at 
least costly (dra7xx has some 180 clock nodes based on quick grep) and 
also potentially breaks things (you get extremely fragmented iomappings, 
and some of them might even get rejected because you end up in the same 
4K page), and should be avoided.

If things would be fixed properly, we would get rid of the clock nodes 
from the DT completely and just leave the clock providers in place; 
clocks would be specified via something like 'clocks = <&prcm 
AM3_ADC_TSC_FCK>;' similar to what is done with the clkctrl entries, and 
rest of the clock data would be built-in to the clock driver. This would 
completely get rid of any future compatibility issues and the need to 
tweak the DT if some clock driver would need modifications to support 
some new feature.

In the review of the series no one asked not to change the device tree but it is also true 
that no review has been made on the patch 'clk: ti: add am33xx / am43xx spread spectrum clock support',
the one to be applied on the drivers that support the SSC.
I take this opportunity to ask you if you can kindly review that patch.

You are right, and in fact in my previous email, I proposed only to change the 
ti_clk_get_reg_addr() from:
- if (of_property_read_u32_index (node, "reg", index, & val)) {
+ if (of_property_read_u32_index (node, "reg", index * 2, & val)) {
following the change of size-cells from 0 to 1 in the DTS, without ioremap.

In which node of the device tree should the 'clocks = <&prcm AM3_ADC_TSC_FCK>;'
property be found?
Could you please briefly describe how the device tree would change?
The clock nodes would be removed but I am not clear how the rest of the device 
tree would change.
Would this solution only impact the device trees and the code of the am3 / am4 
architectures?

Dario

The clock driver patch itself seems fine, the devil is on the DT side, 
and how we are going to re-arrange the DT data to accommodate it.

Yep that would be ok, assuming we change the DT in the manner proposed.

This would be used to replace the device nodes, e.g. currently we have 
clocks = <&adc_tsc_fck> under the tscadc node under am4, this would 
change to <&prcm AM3_ADC_TSC_FCK>. Similar to any other clock entry 
under every device on the platform.

The change on the DT itself would be pretty large, removing all clock 
nodes and modifying any existing handles towards the clock nodes, and 
this would impact all OMAP architectures.

Anyways, it is mostly up-to Tony how he wants to see the DT change, as 
he is the maintainer for the OMAP family DT data.

I am just raising the opinion here that from kernel point of view, 
adding the missing size cells seems unnecessary, and I can't see why 
u-boot can't be changed to support the existing broken DT. It is broken 
now, and it will be broken with the addition of the size cells in place, 
and the actual "neat" end result would be to get rid of the clock nodes 
completely.

While I think all the clocks should use a similar binding to the clkctrl
binding, I don't know if it makes sense to start changing things around
at such a large scale.

Certainly if somebody does the patches and they can be tested to not cause
regressions, sure why not :)

Best to fix the issues first, then make any clean-up patches a separate
series.
