The driver doesn't care for the names currently. Hi, Sorry for the late response. Yes, the driver uses now the clk_bulk functions, so it does not care for the names anymore (in the past it used the per/ipg names to get the clocks). > > Those names date back about 25 years to Motorola Mcore GSM SoCs.

Yes, the Cast JPEG Decoder/Encoder is a licensed core, and it there is also an NXP JPEG Decoder/Encoder Wrapper, which provides the interface for the Cast JPEG Decoder/Encoder. The wrapper also provides AXI DMA engines for fetching Jpeg bitstream from memory and feed it to the Cast Jpeg or for storing the decoded pixel data into system memory through AXI bus. The wrapper also provides APB interface for wrapper and Cast Jpeg register access. >From our hardware team, I got the information that: for jpeg wrapper, it has two clocks(axi and apb), for CAST IP it has one clock(axi, whose clock source is same with wrapper on chip). > > > Mirela (added to recipients): As the original author of the DT nodes, > > could you provide additional information regarding the clock names? I understand that "ipg" usually is IP bus clk for register access, but I am not sure. Experimentally, I was not able to get register access unless both clocks were enabled. I'll get back if I get more details. Regards, Mirela > > > > Best regards, > > Alexander
