Thanks for the report. I've removed the two clk orphan patches from
clk-next. Would it be possible to try with next-20150507 and
clk_ignore_unused on the command line? Also we can try to see if
critical clocks aren't being forced on by applying this patch and
looking for clk_get() failures

That doesn't help.  I tried on cubieboard2 and bananapi.

From cubieboard2, there's a few that look rather important:

[    0.000000] Additional per-CPU info printed with stalls.
[    0.000000] Build-time adjustment of leaf fanout to 32.
[    0.000000] RCU restricting CPUs from NR_CPUS=16 to nr_cpu_ids=2.

Ok. So it seems we need to come up with some solution to the
"critical clocks" problem that doesn't require the individual
clock drivers to call clk_prepare_enable().

I'm getting more and more unsure if we can really handle the complexity
we get by allowing to register orphaned clocks. On one hand we can't
handle the orphaned clocks properly when we do a clk_prepare/enable on
them, on the other hand we run into trouble when we forbid to
prepare/enable them. The fact that clocks can become orphans by
reparenting them makes it even more complicated.
Maybe allowing orphans is something that has to be revisited.

hmm, I don't see it this drastic. I was expecting a lot more fallout from 
changing the behaviour of orphaned clocks over all arches using the CCF.

From the kernelci-boards only the Sunxi-ones seem to have been affected at all 
and also only because they need a "regulator-always-on" equivalent in the CCF, 
which currently hijacks prepare/enable inside the clock driver to achive this.

On the Rockchip clocks we have something similar, with the only difference that 
it is done after all clocks are registered and does not need to access the 3 
orphans we have at this point due to their source clock coming from an 
external i2c-connected chip that gets probed a lot later.

Mediatek has the same case. Here we needs some clock to stay always on and
these clocks get registered before the PLLs they depend on. This means
they can't be enabled right after registration.

Keeping the prepare/enable count correct and syncing the software state
with the hardware state is made quite complicated with orphaned clocks
and I suspect more bugs here. Even now it's hard to move in the
clock framework without breaking other stuff, this won't get easier with
more bug fixes.

So I think asking what allowing orphaned clocks really buys us is valid.
Of course we would need to find a way to get the initialisation order
straight which will probably cause some pain.

This makes it work, but it's not really an option.

And that shows that the CPU and DDR clocks are not protected, which
obviously is pretty mad.

I've mass converted all our probing code to use OF_CLK_DECLARE, and
make things work again.

Is this an acceptable solution?

We were already moving to this, I'm not really fond of doing this like
that, but I guess this whole debacle makes it necessary.

Hmm.. I thought it didn't fix it for Kevin. Confused.

I wonder why we can't switch out the clk_ops on the affected platforms +
clocks to be read-only (at least for the enable/disable part)? That
would fix it just the same right? I wasn't around for the original
discussion regarding this always-on stuff so perhaps I've missed something.

I'm too, but it does fix things here.

We're using clk-gate, so that would require to recode our own
driver. That change seemed less invasive, while fixing the issue and
ensuring that we wouldn't have any orphan clock, which seems to be
hunted down these days...

To be more precise on what I tested.  I used next-20150507 and tested on
4 different sunxi platforms.  First test was "normal" commandline,
second was with clk_ignore_unused appended:

  - cubie: fail, fail
  - cubie2: fail, fail
  - bananpi: fail, pass
  - cubietruck: fail, pass

So it seems to have some effect, but by itself, doesn't fix the issue.

It's very odd, I actually tried with a cubie2 here...

I'm booting on an initramfs and not MMC though, but I can't see how
that can be related to our issue...

did this lead anywhere meanwhile.

Last I remember the change to orphan handling made sunxi fail, but I'm still 
hoping to get this usable at some point :-)

To be honest, I don't know what the current status is. I haven't get
any news since that mail.

I started to move a significant portion of our clocks to
CLK_OF_DECLARE, but not all of them are (which probably make the
situation worse for the time being).

Sorry, I think we're still waiting for the critical clocks stuff
to settle down so that Sunxi can use that instead of calling
clk_prepare_enable() in init code. For now, I've put the first
patch of the two into clk-next so that we can have proper orphan
tracking. Hopefully we resolve critical clocks soon so that we
can merge the defer part.

great :-)

For the defer-part you came up with a better solution than mine anyway, if I 
remember correctly.
