[PATCH 1/6] dt-bindings: clocks: add binding for generic clock-generators

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In contrast to fixed clocks that are described as ungateable, boards
sometimes use additional clock generators for things like PCIe reference
clocks, that need actual supplies to get enabled and enable-gpios to be
toggled for them to work.

This adds a binding for such clock generators that are not configurable
themself, but need to handle supplies for them to work.

While in a lot of cases the type of the IC used is described in board
schematics, in some cases just a generic type description like
"100MHz, 3.3V" might also be used. The binding therefore allows both
cases. Specifying the type is of course preferred.

The clock-frequency is set in devicetree, because while some clock
generators have pins to decide between multipls output rates, those
are generally set statically on the board-layout-level.
