Now, to get this right: I'm not saying that there should be completly no OS-specific (but neutral) properties for the clocking system. I'm saying that in "my" (the VE) case, there are four, effectively identical timers (each pair sharing an interrupt though). Every single one of them is perfectly capable of serving as clocksource or clockevent. Therefore I believe the driver/framework/OS should make its own decision. Cheers! Pawe?

My point is: at least for VE there is _no need_ for any alias or special property in the tree (DTS). All timers are equal. The system can (and should) pick any one it wants. Pawe?

Imagine that only TIMINT1 signal in sp804 is routed to interrupt controller. Could system still pick any one it wants? I think that clocksource or clockevent must be specified in DTS. Whatever we're using alias or property.

If you tell the system that only TIMINT1 is wired, it shouldn't even try to use the second timer for anything that would require the interrupt.

The upper layer software could know which timer is used in clocksource or clockevent. For example, your Android system could be shared on multiple platforms. It could parse hardware information from DTS. (Of course, it hasn't this feature yet). Then it could arrange apps to use other timers. It's like you define console on specified UART even you have multiples UART port.

It's an amba_bus device, so it must be bound with an amba_driver. Otherwise you're abusing the device model and, well, you're on your own. The devices are managed by the system.

I try to find using minim properties. No, we don't. See the discussion with Rob. He has an idea (using the interrupt property only), I have another one (using already defined interrupt-names property). I see you've just came with another one (TIMINTC treated as TIMINT1), which is fine with me. Either way you've got what you need to make the right decision. > As I mentioned above, system must know the behavior first.

I honestly don't know what are you suggesting here other than it looks like an abuse to the device model. > It's like you define console on specified UART even you have multiples UART > port. Where do you do this? In the Device Tree? No. In the kernel command line, which is a runtime argument (the fact it is actually being passed through the tree is irrelevant here) You have the serialX aliases, which - again - simply describe the hardware ("this node is connected to a connector labeled as serial X"). The tree doesn't tell that the user connected his serial cable to serial1 so it should be used as the console. Pawe?

It could also just be a timer that user app or other device driver may want to use it directly. There're a lot of reason that user app or some driver wants to use hardware timer. For example, the specific timer may keep running even system is in low power mode. Although there's so much hardware timers available, system must choose one for the usage of clock source / clock event / other hardware timer usage. >> >> Imagine that only TIMINT1 signal in sp804 is routed to interrupt controller. >> >> Could system still pick any one it wants? >> > >> Then we need another new property.

Excuse me expand it in this topic. arm,sp804-has-irq = <offset>; The offset means TIMER register offset. If it's not zero, TIMER2 is using irq. And it could be configured as clock event. Otherwise, TIMER1 is clock event. We must make sure that only one of all sp804 timers is using this property. alias: linux,clocksource = <&sp804-A> linux,clockevent = <&sp804-A> Although both of them points to timerA, only TIMER1 or TIMER2 of sp804 is using irq. So one is clock source, and the other is clock event. alias: linux,clocksource = <&sp804-A> linux,clockevent = <&sp804-B> The issue comes since system don't know whether TIMER1 or TIMER2 could be configured as clock source. We still need a new property to claim it. It seems that we can't drop "arm,sp804-clocksource", although everybody don't like it. What's your opinion? > > Where do you do this? In the Device Tree?

Therefore it can manage the available resources to avoid the conflict. > Although there's so much hardware timers available, system must choose > one for the usage of clock source / clock event / other hardware timer usage. By all means. I'm just claiming that in normal situation it can choose on its convenience. In other words - if there are no limitations in hardware, it can pick any of them, being responsible for making the right decision. > >> >> Imagine that only TIMINT1 signal in sp804 is routed to interrupt controller. > >> >> Could system still pick any one it wants? > >> > > >> Then we need another new property.

Let me repeat myself - I'm not saying that there must be no such thing like the alias (or your property). I'm sure there will be a use case for them. What I am saying is that they should not be obligatory. Shortly speaking - I don't want to have them in VE DTS files. For VE platform the driver should pick one of the timers and use it as clocksource (I don't care which one), another one as clockevent (again, it's up to you) and the rest for whatever it wants. Could you please provide a solution for such a "generic" case, when there are no aliases defined in the tree? I see no problem with checking if the aliases exist and if they don't picking the first SP804 you can get hold of. Just give me that and you won't hear me complaining further :-) > > Where do you do this? In the Device Tree? No. In the kernel command > > line > Yes, command line could also be filled in DTS. Which is a very bad practice... There's a reason why "chosen" node is named like this ;-) Pawe?

If you have 2 sp804's, why do you care which one is used by the OS? If they are identical, then it doesn't matter. If they are not, then describe how they are not identical. The realview and versatile boards currently do this, but there is no good reason that I see and I intend to change this. > We still need a new property to claim it. It seems that we can't drop > "arm,sp804-clocksource", although everybody don't like it. > > What's your opinion? As previously stated, I don't think we need this or the alias based on current in tree users. There is an issue that you don't know about all available timers so you can select the one with the minimum required features leaving others with more features (i.e. an irq) free. If you need more control like this then you can do custom setup before or instead of calling clocksource_of_init. None of the current platforms have this issue nor do they use sp804 for anything beyond clksrc and clkevt. I would not expect lots of new users of sp804 as I expect most new platforms will use architected timers. So let's not solve imaginary problems now. Rob

It is highly likely that the timer choice on these boards was made by independent people, who came up with different random choices. Nothing more than that - I believe it to be entirely arbitary. I do think discussion is getting too bogged down on this point. So, we could make the decision about which timer to use for the clock event based on whether an interrupt is specified, the known clock rate and size of the timer register. Same can be done for the clock source, but preferring a timer without an interrupt in preference to one with an interrupt. We do have this nice rating system for clocksources and clockevents - and it could be more flexible if it didn't separate clocksources from clockevents - allowing just a single "timer" and marking it as being suitable as a clocksource or a clockevent, or indeed both. However, for SP804 selection, there are cases where it matters, such as on Versatile Express where you have to select the right set of SP804 to have a working system (because ARM didn't fully document the SP804 setup there) and we have no way to switch some of those timers from their 32kHz clock source. But then we could just omit the clock source for the "bad" SP804s which would prevent them being used.

Both VE motherboard's SP804s TIMCLKENx inputs are fed by the SP810's outputs: v2m_timer01: timer@11000 { compatible = "arm,sp804", "arm,primecell"; reg = <0x11000 0x1000>; interrupts = <2>; clocks = <&v2m_sysctl 0>, <&v2m_sysctl 1>, <&smbclk>; clock-names = "timclken1", "timclken2", "apb_pclk"; }; v2m_timer23: timer@12000 { compatible = "arm,sp804", "arm,primecell"; reg = <0x12000 0x1000>; interrupts = <3>; clocks = <&v2m_sysctl 2>, <&v2m_sysctl 3>, <&smbclk>; clock-names = "timclken1", "timclken2", "apb_pclk"; }; TIMCLKs are wired to the SMB_CLK, so the effective rate depends on the TIMCLKENx only. The SP810 takes the 32kHz and 1MHz reference clocks: v2m_sysctl: sysctl@01000 { compatible = "arm,sp810", "arm,primecell"; reg = <0x01000 0x1000>; clocks = <&v2m_refclk32khz>, <&v2m_refclk1mhz>, <&smbclk>; clock-names = "refclk", "timclk", "apb_pclk"; #clock-cells = <1>; clock-output-names = "timerclken0", "timerclken1", "timerclken2", "timerclken3"; }; and the code in drivers/clk/versatile/clk-vexpress.c picks up the faster one as the parent. The V2P-CA9 SP804's TIMCLK is wired to one of the main clock generators: timer@100e4000 { compatible = "arm,sp804", "arm,primecell"; reg = <0x100e4000 0x1000>; interrupts = <0 48 4>, <0 49 4>; clocks = <&oscclk2>, <&oscclk2>; clock-names = "timclk", "apb_pclk"; }; Both TIMCLKEN0 & 1 are pulled up to 1 so they have no effect on the timer rates. Overall, the description of the VE clocking in the Device Tree is rather complete. Pawe?

You do remember who (re)wrote the Versatile Express support that's in mainline... I know that the motherboard SP804s are clocked from the SP810 (which has no published documentation) and these are selectable between 1MHz and 32kHz. What I was referring to is the SP804s on the CT9x4 tile, which seem to be clocked at 32kHz with no way to change them, and it's that which has been totally and utterly undocumented (believe me, when I did that work above, I searched the available documentation many times.) It may be that as a result of my complaints to ARM about that, the documentation has since been fixed. Whether it makes sense to use the CT9x4 SP804s over the motherboards, I've no idea because I've been forced out of the loop on Versatile Express.

Remove all code to parse sp804. Use clocksource_of_init() instead since all these code are implemented in sp804 driver already.
