Hi Valdis,
Thanks for your remark.

Concerning multiple writing in MIPHY_PLL_SBR_1, the writing of the
first 0 it's to be sure there is no previous request.
Then we take account new setting by writing 0x02.
And then we make it 0 to make sure there is no other pending requests.

I added comments and macro to be more clear (see the code below).


Hi Kishon,

Do you want a new patch set (v4),  or i wait other remarks from you ?


    for (val = 0; val < 2; val++) {
        writeb_relaxed(val, miphy_phy->base + MIPHY_CONF);

        /* Validate Step component */
        writeb_relaxed(0x69, miphy_phy->base + MIPHY_PLL_SBR_3);
        writeb_relaxed(0x21, miphy_phy->base + MIPHY_PLL_SBR_4);

        /* Validate Period component */
        writeb_relaxed(0x3c, miphy_phy->base + MIPHY_PLL_SBR_2);
        writeb_relaxed(0x21, miphy_phy->base + MIPHY_PLL_SBR_4);

        /* Clear any previous request */
        writeb_relaxed(0x00, miphy_phy->base + MIPHY_PLL_SBR_1);

        /* requests the PLL to take in account new parameters */
        writeb_relaxed(SET_NEW_CHANGE, base + MIPHY_PLL_SBR_1);

        /* To be sure there is no other pending requests */
        writeb_relaxed(0x00, miphy_phy->base + MIPHY_PLL_SBR_1);
    }


Best regards

Gabriel.

SSC is the technique of modulating the operating frequency of a signal
slightly to spread its radiated emissions over a range of frequencies.
This reduction in the maximum emission for a given frequency helps meet
radiated emission requirements.
These settings are applicable for PCIE with Internal clock.

I'd feel a lot better about all these magic numbers (and the triple write
to SBR_1) if the Changelog or something referenced where they came from....
