That is obviously a mistake because no one clocks their bus/register interface at 32KHz. Someone just filled in something that happened to work. > The fsl dts files all have apb_pclk first. It's all kind of a mess, but fortunately one we should be able to clean-up. The compatible string changes too, but AMBA bus devices don't actually use the compatible string as they use the ID registers to match. I suppose some other OS could do things differently. Worth the risk to clean-up IMO. > > Either case, why are two clocks asked for in the first place ? Are there > situations where the second clock is actually used/useful ? For clocks, the bus needs "apb_pclk" and the driver just gets the first clock. The driver is obviously going to want the functional clock that determines the counter rate. That should Primecell peripherals are about the only ones that have clear specs WRT clock inputs. Yet we've still managed to screw them up. There are 2 clocks in the spec, so the DT has (or should have) 2 clocks.
