So you would rather change the functional clock while the timer is enabled/active? So although that we are doing this today, that does not sound like a good idea to me :-) > I would still recommend you to move is before omap_dm_timer_disable(). > There could be devices or hw bugs/issues, may be related to standby/idle > protocol happening underneath module enable/disable. The register for setting the timer parent clock is located in the Configuration Module (OMAP1) and PRCM (OMAP2+) and so there is no requirement to keep the timer active while doing this. Furthermore, if you look at the omap_dm_timer_set_source() function that can be called from any driver using the timer, we never enable the timer when setting the timer clock source. So this way is more consistent with how the set_source function is implemented.
