Most if not all i.MX SoC's call a function which enables all UARTS.
This is a problem for users who need to re-parent the clock source,
because any attempt to change the parent results in an busy error
due to the fact that the clocks have been enabled already.

  clk: failed to reparent uart1 to sys_pll1_80m: -16

Instead of pre-initializing all UARTS, scan the device tree to see
which UART clocks are associated to stdout, and only enable those
UART clocks if it's needed early.  This will move initialization of
the remaining clocks until after the parenting of the clocks.

When the clocks are shutdown, this mechanism will also disable any
clocks that were pre-initialized.

Fixes: 9461f7b33d11c ("clk: fix CLK_SET_RATE_GATE with clock rate protection")

V3:  Return a method more closely related to upstream kernel but
     instead of passing an array of UART's, each SoC passes the max
     number of UART clocks is has.  The imx clock driver will create
     an array to enable on startup, and disable later.
V2:  Attempt to port driver from vendor kernel.

I'm assuming there is another patch that updatesthe dts files. Right ?

TBH, I'm against the idea of having to call consumer API from a clock provider driver.
I'm still investigating a way of moving the uart clock control calls in drivers/serial/imx,
where they belong.

Suggestion: Maybe the number of clocks can be determined by the existing clocks in that dts node.
Hardcoding is not a good ideea here.

Don't really see the point of this #ifdef here. Just makes the code more messy.

I have only been able to test this on an i.MX8M Mini.  I need to set
the parent clock of the i.MX8M Mini to an 80 MHz clock in order to run
the UART at 4Mbps.   With this patch, I can stop enabling the all the
UART clocks early and allow the clock parent configuration to occur.
From what I can tell, the remaining clocks should get activated as
they are needed, because I was able to use Bluetooth connected to
UART1 running at 4MBps using a 80MHz clock source with this patch, and
the clk_summary shows the clock is running at the proper speed.
Without this patch, the UART fails to re-parent, so I'm stuck at lower
speeds and that means choppy Bluetooth audio.

The Kernel that NXP hosts on Code Aurora that they use for Yocto
attempts scan through stdout to only enable those clocks [1].  I
attempted to push it upstream, but it was rejected [2].  Sascha
suggested creating an array which could be filled when the clocks are
enabled and that array would be used to deactivate the clocks at
shutdown.  That's what I attempted to do here.

I don't have older imx boards to know if their device trees are
configured in such a way without modifications to the device tree or
not, but since it appears to work for NXP in [2], I assumed it would
work here.

The tables were hard-coded before, so the idea was to pass the maximum
number of clocks instead the entire table.  The higher-level clock
code wouldn't necessarily know the maximum number of UART clocks since
the number of UARTs may change depending on the SoC.  So that
hard-coded number was simply the number of entries that were
previously used in the array that was previously passed.  When
creating a table of active clocks, it could use the number passed to
define an array, and fill the array with data grabbed from of_stdout.

If you want, I could leave the existing UART clocks alone, and create
a new function that uses the array of clocks passed to it to count the
number of available clocks.  It would limit the scope of the change to
clk/imx/clk.c.  I think that would be easier than trying to parse the
DT for a bunch of compatible flags looking for a bunch of UARTS and
their respective clocks.

If you'd rather do something in the serial imx driver, I can hold off.

I added the #ifdef here because I got an e-mail from a bot from a
previous attempt.  The bot failed to build, because the build test
using a different defconfig file that doesn't enable CONFIG_OF.  For
the purposes of using this code, the CONFIG_OF is required, but
without changes to Kconfig, this seemed like an easy way to prevent
build errors for the bot.  I didn't want to break something else by
changing the Kconfig dependencies because I wasn't sure how many build
bots exist.

Just a thought. The uart clock used for console remains on from u-boot,
so maybe it's enough to just add the CLK_IGNORE_UNUSED flag to all the
uart root clocks and remove the prepare/enable calls for uart clocks 
for good. I don't really have a way to test it right now, but maybe
you could give it a try.

That would mean that UART clocks will never be disabled, regardless of
whether they are used for console or not. That doesn't sound very
appealing.

AFAIK, the only uart clock that is enabled by u-boot is the one used for
the console. Later on, when the serial driver probes, it will enable it itself.

Unless I'm missing something, this is exactly what we need.

It might enable it, but with CLK_IGNORE_UNUSED the clock won't be
disabled again when a port is closed after usage

OK, tell me what I'm getting wrong in the following scenario:

U-boot leaves the console uart clock enabled. All the other ones are disabled.

Kernel i.MX clk driver registers the uart clocks with flag CLK_IGNORE_UNUSED.

Serial driver probes, then enables/disables the clocks when the port opens/closes.

The clk_disable_unused will ignore the uart clocks entirely due to the flag.

I was wrong at that point. I originally thought the kernel will never
disable these clocks, but in fact it only leaves them enabled during the
clk_disable_unused call.

However, when CLK_IGNORE_UNUSED becomes relevant it's too late already.
I just chatted with Lucas and he told me what the original problem was
that his patch solved.

The problem comes when an unrelated device and the earlycon UART have
the same parent clocks. The parent clock is enabled, but it's reference
count is zero. Now when the unrelated device probes and toggles its
clocks then the shared parent clock will be disabled due to the
reference count being zero. Next time earlycon prints a character the
system hangs because the UART gates are still enabled, but their parent
clocks no longer are.

Overall I think Lucas' patches are still valid and relevant and with
Adams patches we even no longer have to enable all UART clocks, but
only the ones which are actually needed.

Hmm, that is indeed a problem. That's why I think there should be some
kind of NOCACHE flag for almost all the types of clocks. For example,
in this case, it makes sense for the core to check the bit in the register
and then disable the parent based on that instead of relying on the refcount.
Anyway, that's something that needs to be added in the CCF.

Yeah, for now, I think we can go with Adam's patches. But longterm, I would
like to remove the special case of the uart clocks we have right now in all
the i.MX clock drivers.

Is the patch I submitted good enough for someone's acked-by or

I looked around at other serial drivers, and I found nothing like this
function for enabling all UART clocks.  There are generic functions
for registering consoles, earlycon etc, and the serial driver fetches
the per and igp clocks from the device tree, so I attempted to simply
remove imx_register_uart_clocks().  I booted an i.MX8M Nano from a
fully-powered off state, and my serial console came up just fine.

I checked the clk_summary, and the clock parents are set correctly and
the respective clock rates appear to be correct (ie, the console is
working at the desired baud rate, and Bluetooth is happy)

Since I don't fully understand the serial driver and the clock
dependencies, I don't want to just simply remove the function without
discussing it, because I don't know the ramifications.  However, when
testing on the i.MX8M Nano, things look OK.
I also tested suspend-resume and the console UART appears to return
and the Bluetooth UART set to 4Mbps works just fine too.

I'd like to post a V4 which just removes imx_register_uart_clocks and
the corresponding calls to it.  I don't know enough about the older
32-bit i.MX SoC's, but I have build-tested it, and I can generate a
patch. Are there any objections and/or concerns?

Just because it works, doesn't mean it is safe. To put it simply, the
risk of some  driver disabling a clock that is parent of the uart clock
would render the earlycon broken.

Please don't remove the imx_register_uart_clocks for now. As much as I
would like it gone, the way the earlycon could end up broken is
so ugly that it would make it a real pain to debug it later on.

I won't do a V4, but where do we go from here?  I have a V3 that was
waiting for reviews, but there were some concerns.  We currently
cannot re-parent the UART's on iMX8MM or iMX8MN.  Should I resend V3,
or are there fixes/changes requested to V3?

The v3 is fine. No need to resend.
