Some driver enables clock A for a while and then disables it, at this point there's nothing indicating that some piece of hardware (with a not yet probed driver) is using clock B and that it must not be turned off until said driver has had a chance to "park" the hardware or cast its vote. > 2) Get display to work stable and rock solid.

But I don't think we should do this solely by cutting the clocks as the clock driver probes. I do think we need to allow the various drivers to turn off the hardware nicely before cutting any remaining clocks. > 3) Gracious handover of display/framebuffer from bootloader to the Linux > kernel. > Right, this is a stretch goal for now. > For the task #1, you can hack the dispcc as you wish or set any additional > parameters, as you are already passing clk_ignore_unused.

It might work for display, but I would not be surprised if cutting clocks like this will cause problem for the clocks that feed some external entity and then comes back in (e.g. PHY clocks). Also not that while this might work for dispcc, we should ensure to park all clocks that are flagged enable_safe_config downstream before we turn off their parents. In SM8350 GCC there are 44 of these, several of them you won't be able to just turn off - e.g. there's the UART. > For the task #3 we need collaboration between dispcc, clock core and dpu/dsi > drivers.

One such set of clocks are clk-smd-rpm, which we can't query and we may not turn off until all the client driver have probed - as they provide e.g. clocking for the busses. > - Make of_clk_set_defaults() ignore clocks with CLOCK_INHERITED flag.
