This patch adds support for PLL2 and derivates on sun4i, sun5i and sun7i SoCs. As this PLL is only used for audio and requires good accuracy, we only support two known good rates. Signed-off-by: Emilio L?pez <emilio@elopez.com.ar> ---(...)quoted

+ /* PLL2x8, double of PLL2 without the post divisor */ + of_property_read_string_index(np, "clock-output-names", 3, &clk_name); + clks[3] = clk_register_fixed_factor(NULL, clk_name, parent, + CLK_SET_RATE_PARENT, 2 * 4, 1);Why have you declared them here, instead of using fixed factors in the DT directly, like we have done in the past?I'd prefer to see one clock with four outputs represented as one clock with four outputs rather than one clock with one output and other three weirdly named nodes floating around.Except that you have no control over these 3 other outputs, that directly derive from the only one you can control.
You do have one degree of control, see below.
Plus, their name wouldn't be weirded than the one you gave in clock-output-names ;)
Allwinner chose those names on the user manual, not me :)

I can only see four uses of fixed-factor-clock in our DTSI, three of which are "pass through" clocks for ahb and ar100 on sun6/8i, and a fourth one to implement the 32k that results from reducing the 24M osc on sun7i.And PLLx2, PLL2x4, PLL2x8 are really just pass-through clocks too. Once PLL2 is controlled, those will just be enabled.
Yes and no.

As a second reason, implementing it as fixed factors would be slightly incorrect, as it's only "x8" when you use the limited set of factors that Allwinner and us are using for audio.Hu? What do you mean by that?
PLL2 (aka PLL2x1) is 24 * N / pre / post PLL2x8 is 24 * 2 * N / pre So PLL2 * 8 == PLL2x8 only if post == 4, which holds true on our software implementation as well as AW's, but may not always hold true hardware wise.
