It would work and initially I had similar patch, see [0] and related

only.

I see. But again, I don't think it is correct to change the clock of
the codec by default. What happens if this is for example a
compatible = "fixed-clock"?

The codec rate won't be changed unless a corresponding "*mclk-fs" is provided.


As you pointed out in the referred thread [0]. simple-audio-card has
that clock and judging from the code it is exactly for this reason:
to either change/enable it or not.



With this patch you'll switch that to "always change it". Therefore,
shouldn't there be a dt flag to indicate wheter simple-audio-card/graph
should be in charge of the codecs clock input?

As mentioned above, it does not change always. Requires "*mclk-fs" to do so.

May be below could be a possible alternative?
- Re-order if-else of clock parsing.

   if (!of_property_read_u32(node, "system-clock-frequency", &val)) {
       // Since you are fixing rate already via "assigned-clocks" this may be a duplication. OR        // "assigned-clocks" can be parsed to understand if a fixed rate is expected.

       simple_dai->sysclk = val;
   } else {
       // fetch MCLK clock from device and setup sysclk
       // a. If "*mclk-fs" is given and "clocks" is found, the rate would be updated.        // b. If "*mclk-fs" is not mentioned and "clocks" is found, then simple-card utils won't touch rate. It will just do clock enable/disable.
   }


And its fetching just the first clock, doesn't it? What happens if a
codec has two clock inputs?

Yes, it would have been more descriptive if it were specifically looking for clock "mclk". I think the original assumption was codec takes one input clock (MCLK) and uses it for sysclk.
