The first step is to actually abstract the PCIe PHY in the right way, Richard has already sent some patches for this. Then we can add support for the different possibilities of using the refclock pad, as this isn't a simple choice between using the internal clock or a externally supplied one. The options are: 1. Use internal clock to drive the PHY, if there isn't some other path to output this clock to the board this is effectively a split clocking setup. 2. Use externally supplied clock provided to the PHY via the refclock pad. 3. Use internal clock to driver the PHY, but output this clock on the refclock pad, which is known to be possible with the i.MX8MM PCIe PHY.

The i.MX7D reference manual states the following: - IMX7D_GPR12_PCIE_PHY_REFCLK_SEL enables internal sourcing of the PHY reference clock from a signal with the somewhat confusing name REFCLK_EXT - The root of pcie_phy.REFCLK_EXT is PCIE_PHY_CLK_ROOT As I understand it, "internal reference clock" means precisely that this is handled entirely internal to the SoC and does not depend on the board design. It may differ between different SoCs implementing this PCIe controller though. > > > - The external clocks, this should refer to an actual external clock, or > > possibly a fixed-clock node > > > > That's correct and the i.MX8MQ board DTs all point to a external clock > node, as we currently default to external clocking there. > > > I would be great if someone with more insight into this could chime in > > and tell me if my reasoning here is correct or not. > > > > Unfortunately I only have our MBa7x at my disposal for further > > experimentation.

I'm not familiar with the split clock setup. Will the reference clock that the devices consume still have to be input to the PHY somehow, or can PCIe operate without a common reference clock? On i.MX7D, there are two pairs of pads for the bus clock, PCIE_REFCLK_IN_P/N and PCIE_REFCLK_OUT_P/N. There are two possible modes of operation here, selectable by IMX7D_GPR12_PCIE_PHY_REFCLK_SEL: 1. Clock is generated on the board and sent to PCIE_REFCLK_IN_P/N. The "pcie_bus" clock in DT should reflect how the clock is generated on the board. 2. Clock is generated internally by the PCIe PHY, based on the SoC- internal signal pcie_phy.REFCLK_EXT, which is PCIE_PHY_CLK_ROOT. The PCIE_REFCLK_IN_P/N pads are unused in this mode. For the second option, it seems to me that "pcie_phy" and "pcie_bus" in DT should refer to the same clock source. > > > > > > > > > > - The external clocks, this should refer to an actual external clock, or > > > > possibly a fixed-clock node > > > > > > > > > > That's correct and the i.MX8MQ board DTs all point to a external clock > > > node, as we currently default to external clocking there. > > > > > > > I would be great if someone with more insight into this could chime in > > > > and tell me if my reasoning here is correct or not. > > > > > > > > Unfortunately I only have our MBa7x at my disposal for further > > > > experimentation.

Would a setup like the current imx8mq-evk.dts where "pcie_bus" refers to a fixed-clock node be used for option 1 and 2? It seems to me that the i.MX7D will require a slightly different configuration, as it has separate pads for refclk input and output.

Adds support for a DT property fsl,internal-osc to select the internal oscillator for the PCIe PHY. Signed-off-by: Matthias Schiffer <matthias.schiffer@ew.tq-group.com> Cc: Markus Niebel <Markus.Niebel@ew.tq-group.com> --- Okay, so while this patch is nice and short, I'm note sure if it's a good solution, hence I submit it as an RFC. It is roughly based on code from older linux-imx versions [1] - although it seems this feature was never supported on i.MX7D even by linux-imx (possibly because of compliance issues with the internal clock, however I haven't found a definitive erratum backing this), but only on other SoC like i.MX6QP. The device tree binding docs of the driver are somewhat lacking, but looking at [1] it seems that an external reference clock takes the place of the "pcie_bus" clock - various pieces of the driver skip enabling/disabling this clock when an external clock is configured. From this I've come to the conclusion that the clock settings in imx7d.dtsi do not really make sense: The pcie_bus clock is configured to PLL_ENET_MAIN_100M_CLK, but this seems wrong for both internal and external reference clocks: - For the internal clock, the correct clock should be PCIE_PHY_ROOT_CLK according to the reference manual - The external clocks, this should refer to an actual external clock, or possibly a fixed-clock node I would be great if someone with more insight into this could chime in and tell me if my reasoning here is correct or not. Unfortunately I only have our MBa7x at my disposal for further experimentation. This board does not have an external reference clock for the PCIe PHY, so I cannot test the behaviour for settings that use an external clock. Without this patch (and adding the new flag to the MBa7x DTS), the boot will hang while waiting for the PCIe link to come up. So, for the actual question (given that my thoughts above make any sense): How do we want to implement this? 1. A simple boolean flag, like this patch provides 2. Allow Device Trees not to specify a "pcie_bus" clock at all, meaning it should use the internal clock 3. Special handling when the "pcie_bus" clock is configured to PCIE_PHY_ROOT_CLK - is such a thing even possible, or is this breaking the clock driver's abstraction too much? 4. Something more involved, with a proper clock sel as the source for "pcie_bus" Solution 4. seems difficult to implement nicely, as the PCIe driver also fiddles with IMX7D_GPR12_PCIE_PHY_REFCLK_SEL for power management: the clock selection is switched back to the internal clock in imx6_pcie_clk_disable(), which also disables its source PCIE_PHY_ROOT_CLK, effectively gating the clock.
