Some PWM channels work in one mode "TCU1" and others work in "TCU2". The
 mode in which channels work depends on the version of the SoC.

When stopped, the pins of TCU1 channels will be driven to the inactive level (which depends on the polarity). It is unknown whether or not the
 currently running period is completed. We set a bit to configure for
"abrupt shutdown", so I expect that it's not, but somebody would need
 to hook up a logic analyzer to see what's the exact behaviour with
 and without that bit.

This might be done even without a logic analyzer. Just do something
like:

	pwm_apply_state(pwm, { .enabled = 1, .period = 5s })
	pwm_apply_state(pwm, { .enabled = 1, .period = 5s, .duty = 5s })

and if that takes less then 5s the period is not completed.

And note that "abrupt shutdown" is a bug.

I remember you asked that already in an older patchset.
The result of this test is that the period is never completed,
independently of the "abrupt shutdown" bit.

Cheers,
-Paul


 TCU2 channels on the other hand will stop in the middle of a period,
 leaving the pin hanging at whatever level it was before the stop.
 That's the rationale behind the trick in commit 6580fd173070 ("pwm:
 jz4740: Force TCU2 channels to return to their init level").

Strange, but ok.

Best regards
Uwe
