I took the ARM clock API framework you developed for the OMAP, hacked it to shreds and got it working on the Freescale i.MX1. Some clocks on the i.MX1 are always running, so when they're unused, I elected to spin them down the slowest available speed, saving a bit more power. I also keep a copy of the requested target frequency so that when parent clocks get changed, I can keep the child clocks running as close as possible to the originally requested speed. This is useful for stuff like the I2C bus and audio clocks, and really darned helpful in keeping the console serial port working correctly. When you were implementing the framework, did you have any thoughts about where the initial clock frequencies "should" come from? It sounds like a policy issue, and therefore compiling it into the kernel (as you've done in your OMAP implementation) is The Wrong Thing. But it's not at all clear where else it could go. Again, my thanks. It was tons of help. Schwab
