On my board the SD clock is derived from pll2_pfd2_396m. I used the userspace cpufreq governor and scaled down to 396MHz. When I scale up again the SDHC driver times out while waiting for interrupts. This is because the cpufreq driver disables the clock twice. > It's there to balance the clk_prepare_enable on > pll2_pfd2_396m when we enters 396MHz set-point. > > if (freqs.old * 1000 <= clk_get_rate(pll2_pfd2_396m_clk)) { > clk_prepare_enable(pll1_sys_clk); > clk_disable_unprepare(pll2_pfd2_396m_clk); > } > > > > > Fix this by removing the clk enabling/disabling altogether since the > > clk core will do this automatically during a reparent. > > It seems clk core will only enable the parent clock during the > clk_set_parent() call, and only in case that the child clock is > prepared.

Reparenting takes the prepare/enable state of a clock with it. See __clk_set_parent, it starts with: if (clk->prepare_count) { __clk_prepare(parent); clk_enable(parent); clk_enable(clk); } So if the clock to be reparent is enabled then the new parent gets enabled aswell. And it ends with: if (clk->prepare_count) { clk_disable(clk); clk_disable(old_parent); __clk_unprepare(old_parent); } So if the clock is enabled the old parent now decreases its enable count.
