But I don't see why you are keeping the simple-gates. The bus gate may be ungated/gated when the clock is enabled/disabled, and that's what Allwinner's software does.For peripherals that have a separate mod clock, having them separate is a good thing. One example might be the audio codecs. You could ungate the bus gate to access its registers to program it, but only enable the mod clock when you actually play something.The roles of the bus gate and the clock gate are the same. I don't see any reason to set one gate without setting the other one. More, the spec says what the bus gate must be enabled before the clock gate (and reverse order while disabling). So, setting both gates in one function call seems safer.Wha? Aren't bus gates and clock gates the same thing in this context?
Yes. What is the problem? -- Ken ar c'henta? | ** Breizh ha Linux atav! ** Jef | http://moinejf.free.fr/
