Actually it should even be: #define FTM_CSC(channel) \ (FTM_CSC_BASE + ((channel) * 8)) Just in case channel ends up being an expression. > > > + ret = clk_prepare_enable(fpc->clk); > > > > This should probably be just clk_prepare().

Okay. In that case perhaps the better thing to do is call clk_prepare() during driver probe and only clk_enable() here. > > Perhaps time_ns should be "unsigned long"? > > > > Shouldn't this be same with "int duty_ns" and "int period_ns", which are defined by > struct pwm_ops { > ... > int (*config)(struct pwm_chip *chip, > struct pwm_device *pwm, > int duty_ns, int period_ns); > ... > } ? Well, the plan is to eventually make duty_ns and period_ns unsigned int or unsigned long because negative values don't make any sense for them. With that in mind I think it makes sense to use the proper type here now. > > > +static int fsl_pwm_config_channel(struct pwm_chip *chip, > > > > I think you can safely drop the _channel suffix from the PWM operations. > > > > By adding _channel suffix just for more comprehensave about the pwm's muti-channel operation. > If this is redundant here, I will drop it. The operations are implicitly per-channel operations.

While the above could possibly happen, there's no way the core could prevent it. And your explicit test couldn't either. So what usually happens is that a driver requests a PWM device and then has exclusive access to it. Any other driver that wants to use the same PWM device can't because it will get an -EBUSY return. So in your hypothetical case above, if one driver does stuff like that with a PWM device then that's a driver bug, not something the PWM core should be required to handle. > > > +static int fsl_pwm_parse_dt(struct fsl_pwm_chip *fpc) { > > [...] > > > + int ret = 0; > > > + u32 chs[FTM_MAX_CHANNEL]; > > > + struct device_node *np = fpc->pdev->dev.of_node; > > > + > > > + ret = of_property_read_u32(np, "fsl,pwm-clk-ps", > > > + &fpc->clk_ps); > > > + if (ret < 0) { > > > + dev_err(&fpc->pdev->dev, > > > + "failed to get pwm " > > > + "clk prescaler : %d\n", > > > + ret); > > > > Perhaps it's more useful to mention the missing property explicitly in > > the error message: > > > > dev_err(fpc->chip.dev, > > "failed to parse \"fsl,pwm-clk-ps\" property: %d\n", > > ret); > > > > Whil I think the following is better in code. > > dev_err(fpc->chip.dev, > "failed to parse <fsl,pwm-clk-ps> property: %d\n", > ret); Why? You're quoting which property failed to parse so you should use the correct character for quoting, which is either the apostrophe (') or the quotation mark ("). Thierry
