When bam dma is "controlled remotely", thus far clocks were not controlled from the Linux. In this scenario, Linux was disabling runtime pm in bam dma driver and not doing any clock management in suspend/resume hooks. With introduction of crypto engine bam dma, the clock is a rpmh resource that can be controlled from both Linux and TZ/remote side. Now bam dma clock is getting enabled during probe even though the bam dma can be "controlled remotely". But due to clocks not being handled properly, bam_suspend generates a unbalanced clk_unprepare warning during system suspend. To fix the above issue and to enable proper clock-management, this patch enables runtim-pm and handles bam dma clocks in suspend/resume hooks if the clock node is present irrespective of controlled_remotely property.Shouldn't the following probe code need some update? Now we have both controlled_remotely and clocks handle for cryptobam node. For example, if devm_clk_get() returns -EPROBE_DEFER, we do not want to continue with bamclk forcing to be NULL, right?We still will have to set bdev->bamclk to NULL in certain scenarios. For eg slimbus bam dma is controlled-remotely and the clocks are handled by the remote s/w. Linux does not handle the clocks at all and there is no clock specified in the dt node.This is the norm for the devices that are also controlled by remote s/w. Crypto bam dma is a special case where the clock is actually a rpmh resource and hence can be independently handled from both remote side and Linux by voting. In this case, the dma is controlled remotely but clock can be turned off and on in Linux. Hence the need for this patch.So is it correct to say that clock is mandatory for !controlled-remotely BAM, while it's optional for controlled-remotely one. If yes, maybe we can do something like below to make the code a bit easier to read?
Yes. Sure. I will change it to below.
if (controlled-remotely) bdev->bamclk = devm_clk_get_optional(); else bdev->bamclk = devm_clk_get();quoted
Yes, the probe code needs updating to handle -EPROBE_DEFER (esp if the clock driver is built in as a module) I am not sure if the clock framework handles -EPROBE_DEFER properly either. So that might need updating too. This is a separate activity and not part of this patch >As the patch breaks the assumption that for controlled-remotely BAM there is no clock to be managed, the probe code becomes buggy right away.
mmm... not really. Either ways we don't handle -EPROBE_DEFER from clock code. That behavior is not worse because of this patch. I can send a separate patch to fix the -EPROBE_DEFER issue.
