So these are valid for all platforms or not? Looks not, but nothing
narrows the list for other boards.
i add the limitation on the reg usage for the ipq5332 platform on the
following part "if condition" of this patch, i will update the patch
to narrow down for the other compatibles.
Anyway, why do you add entries in the middle? LDO was the second, so it
cannot be now fifth.
As Rob's suggestion, i move the cmn_blk to second location for
simplifying the limitation description, i checked the upstream dts code,
the LDO is not used currently, so we can move cmn_blk to the second
location here.
I cannot find his suggestion in the previous thread. Where did he
propose it?
Rob suggested this on the V2 as below.
"
Perhaps cmn_blk should come 2nd, so all the variants have the same entry
indices. Then you can move this to the top level and just say 'minItems:
4' here.
Wasn't this for new devices? What about all existing which have LDO as
the second entry?
In the current regs, which includes mdio and one LDO.
mdio is the reg address range for all IPQs.
one LDO is only for ipq5018.
the new added LDO is for ipq5332.
the cmn_blk is for ipq9574 and ipq5332.
i will update these limitations of dt-bindings in the next patch set.

This does not resolve mine and Conor's concerns from previous version.
External clocks are defined as clock inputs.
No matter the external or internal reference clock, they are the clock
source selection for CMN, there are only 48MHZ can be external or
internal, other clocks have the different clock rate, so the internal
48MHZ reference clock can be implied when the
"qcom,cmn-ref-clock-frequency" is not defined, which is suggested by
Conor in the previous
comments.
I don't think he proposed it, but maybe I missed some message (care to
point me to his message where he agreed on usage of
qcom,cmn-ref-clock-frequency?). I am pretty sure we both stayed on the
same page, that the presence of clocks defines choice of internal clock.
This property should go away.
Sorry for this confusion.
Rob said the internal reference source can be decided by the absence of
the property combined with compatible string, because i said the
So all your three DT maintainers agree that lack of property for
choosing clock, defines the usage of interrupt source.
This is the reference clock source selection of CMN block, which
generates the clocks for the Ethernet devices.
Now we had huge amount of arguments that you do not represent properly
the clock relationships. Still.
here is the clock topology.
reference clock sources ---> CMN PLL ---> various output clocks
the output clocks are provided to the Ethernet devices(such as the
qca808x PHY devices).
These information is also provided the commit message of the patch
<net: mdio: ipq4019: configure CMN PLL clock for ipq5332>.
internal 96MHZ is used on ipq5018 currently in the previous message.
per double checked the current IPQ platforms, the internal 96MHZ is also
possible on ipq9574, and the reference clock source should be kept as
configurable instead of limited by the compatible string, maybe the
different reference clock source is acquired in the future, even
currently it is not used on the special platform for now.
so i update the solution with a little bit of changes.
You still do not want to implement our suggestions and I don't
understand your arguments. Nothing in above paragraph explains me why
you cannot use clock provider/consumer relationships.
Hi Krzysztof,
The reference clock source can be registered as the fix clock provider,
From the current fix clock provider, the clock rate is useful for the
clock consumer, the fix clock rate is used to generate the output clocks
by the divider or multiplier.
For the CMN block to select reference clock, which is configuring the
clock source, we don't know the formula to get the output clock value
based on the reference clock value.
i also see there is an example in the upstream code, which is same as
the CMN block to select the reference clock source.
the property "ref-clock-frequency" is defined in the yaml file below.
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/wireless/ti,wlcore.yaml.
"
ref-clock-frequency:
$ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/uint32
description: Reference clock frequency.
"
the reference clock source is selected based on the table as below.
source code file drivers/net/wireless/ti/wl12xx/main.c
"
static const struct wl12xx_clock wl12xx_refclock_table[] = {
{ 19200000, false, WL12XX_REFCLOCK_19 },
{ 26000000, false, WL12XX_REFCLOCK_26 },
{ 26000000, true, WL12XX_REFCLOCK_26_XTAL },

Thanks.
