Hi, jerome Is there any problem about fixed_pll_dco's parent_data? Now both name and fw_name are described in parent_data.Yes, there is a problem. This approach is incorrect, as I've tried to explain a couple times already. Let me try to re-summarize why this approach is incorrect. Both fw_name and name should be provided when it is possible that the DT does not describe the input clock. IOW, it is only for controllers which relied on the global name so far and are now starting to describe the clock input in DT This is not your case. Your controller is new and DT will have the correct info You are trying work around an ordering issue by providing both fw_name and name. This is not correct and I'll continue to nack it. If the orphan clock is not reparented as you would expect, I suggest you try to look a bit further at how the reparenting of orphans is done in CCF and why it does not match your expectation.I have debugged the handle for orphan clock in CCF, Maybe you are missing the last email.Nope, got it the first timequoted
Even though the clock index exit, it will get failed for the orphan clock's parent clock due to it has not beed added to the provider.If the provider is not registered yet, of course any query to it won't work. This why I have suggested to this debug *further* : * Is the orphan reparenting done when a new provider is registered ? * If not, should it be done ? is this your problem ?Apparently, I was not clear enough so I'll rephrasequoted
Yes, the orphan reparenting is done when the new provider is registered.No it is not done yet. Please check the code. The reparenting of orphan is done only on clock registration, not on provider registeration. Now that clocks can be specified by DT, this probably needs to added.The action of reparenting the orphan is before the provider registration
with the current code.
That is your problem.
Yes, if the provider is registered before the clock registration, it will reparent successfully.
Please fix the underlying issue, then you can post your series again.quoted
Reparenting the orphan will be done when each clock is registered by devm_clk_hw_register. And at this time the provider has not been registered. After all clocks are registered by devm_clk_hw_register, the provider will be registered by devm_of_clk_add_hw_provider. Reparenting the orphan will fail when fw_name is added alone, the couse is that devm_clk_hw_register is always running ahead of devm_of_clk_add_hw_provider.Please stop bringing the topic of "fw_name" and "name" field together, I told you 3 times why this is wrong. It is not going to change.quoted
That is why it will failed to get parent for the orphan clock.It fails because the provider is not registered when you try to reparent the orphan. It shows that you should try again once the provider is registered.
OK, I have exchanged the position for devm_clk_hw_register and devm_of_clk_add_hw_provider in meson-eeclk.c. It reparents successfully for orphan clock. Is is ok that put devm_of_clk_add_hw_provider ahead? As far as I am concerned, there is no any effect.
