Since we start to have a lot of clocks to protect, some of them in a few boards
only, it becomes difficult to handle the clock protection without having to add
per machine exceptions.

Move these where they belong, in the machine definition code.

I don't like the fact that these are required to be hardcoded
anywhere in source code.

Isn't there already DT syntax to do the same? If not, should there be?

I agree, but that would also mean having a driver for everything that
would need a clock: a CPU, the RAM. I'm not sure we want that either.

I don't think there is, and I gave some thought about it too. But
something a la regulator-always-on wouldn't work with clocks with
multiple outputs (like pll5), because you might need to leave only one
of the output enabled, but not the others, and I couldn't think of a
nice way to do so.

If you have one, I'd be happy to implement it.

We had a discussion a while ago about encoding default settings for clock
providers in the clock provider nodes. I don't remember the details
unfortunately.

Mike, can you explain how this should be done?

The default clock settings are still in discussion. My perspective is
that the default settings are best used by the consuming device. E.g. an
MMC controller that consumes a clock signal should specify in DT the
clock that it consumes (already does this) and the preferred rate that
it wants that clock, as well as the preferred parent if that clock is a
mux.

Of course clock providers themselves are devices and could specify such
defaults for the clocks that they create. This approach is a minor
bastardization of the default clock settings since the clock provider
device isn't really consuming the clock, but it is helpful when no such
driver or DT node exists to do the same.

It is worth pointing out that the above approach amounts to the exact
same hard coding of clk_enable requirements as is done in Maxime's
patch, but with the added problem that the default are hidden away in DT
somewhere which is a debugging nightmare for someone trying to figure
out why a clock is set at a certain rate.

Finally, to answer the question more directly, I completely oppose
having something analogous to a regulator-always-on for a clock that can
gate. Please always use the clk.h API for this in Linux kernel driver C
code:

clk_get()
clk_prepare()
clk_enable()

In Maxime's case he is doing the right thing (using the clk.h API) but
he has no memory driver to do it, so he is putting that stuff in the clk
provider driver. I'm fine with that solution, until the day that he does
have a memory driver and then it needs to migrate out to that code.

Regards,
Mike
