On Freescale i.MX7D platform, all clocks operations, including enable/disable,
rate change and re-parent, requires its parent clock on.
Current clock core can not support it well.
This patch introduce a new flag CLK_SET_PARENT_ON to handle this special case
in clock core that enable its parent clock firstly for each operation and disable
it later after operation complete.

The most special case is for set_parent() operation which requires both parent,
old one and new one, to be enabled at the same time during the operation.

Let's avoid adding more here if we can.

If there's a parent and this clock is on, why wouldn't the parent
also be on? It doesn't seem right to have a clock that's on
without it's parent on that we're trying to turn off. Put another
way, how is this fixing anything?

Is there a reason why the clk itself can't be on when we switch
parents? It seems that if the clk was on during the parent
switch, then it should be possible to just add a flag check on
both these if conditions and be done. It may be possible to
change the behavior here and not enable the clk in hardware, just
up the count and turn on both the parents. I'm trying to recall
why we enable the clk itself across the switch.

Hmmm... if __clk_set_parent_after() actually used the second
argument then we could put this duplicate logic in there and call
it with a different order of arguments in the success vs. error
paths in this function. Unless I missed something.

I can understand the case where clk_set_parent() can't switch the
mux because it needs the source and destination parents to be
clocking. I have that hardware design on my desk. But to change
the rate of a clock? The name of the flag, CLK_SET_PARENT_ON,
leads me to believe we don't really need to do this if we're
changing the rate, unless we're also switching the parents. Care
to explain why the hardware requires this?

If we actually do need to keep the parent clock on when the rate
is switching the name of the flag could be better and not have
"set parent" in the name.

Why not just call clk_prepare_enable()? Or add a clk_core
specific function, clk_core_prepare_enable() that we can call
here. We could put the parent pointer check in there too so that
it's just

 if (clk->flags & CLK_SET_PARENT_ON)
 	clk_core_prepare_enable(parent);

Yes, also don't want to add these pre-declarations, but needed by the following

Well, this is caused by a state mis-align between HW and SW in clock tree
during booting.
Usually in uboot, we may enable all clocks in HW by default.
And during kernel booting time, the parent clock could be disabled in its driver
probe due to calling clk_prepare_enable and clk_disable_unprepare.
Because it's child clock is only enabled in HW while its SW usecount in
clock tree is still 0, so clk_disable of parent clock will gate the parent clock
in both HW and SW usecount ultimately.
Then there will be a clock is on in HW while its parent is disabled.

Later when clock core does clk_disable_unused, this clock disable
will cause system hang due to the limitation of operation requiring its parent
clock on.

Got it as you told we will change all clk name to core for clk_core.

The CLK_SET_PARENT_ON only indicates that it's parent clocks should
be on, not itself clock.
And we don't want to break CLK_SET_PARENT_GATE clocks.
So if the clk is not prepared before, we only enable its old parent,
not including itself.

What i know is that it's designed for eliminate glitch internally.
Will find more information for you.

Actually it's meaning is the clock set(e.g. rate, gate/ungate)
needs its parent clocks on, not set parent...
But Yes, i fully agree the naming is a bit misleading.

It just follows the exist CLK_SET_X convention..
Seems not easy find a better name.
What's your suggestion?

How about CLK_OPS_PARENT_ON?

Caused by two reasons initially:
1) no one uses clk_prepare_enable in clk core, so i guess it may be better
not use it :-)
2) clk_prepare_enable includes one more unneeded prepare lock acquire,
lines exchange efficiency.

I'm ok if you like this. :)

Very good. Now we understand the real problem; the framework
doesn't keep parent clocks on for child clocks that are already
on in the bootloader when those child clocks haven't been
acquired by a driver. How about we solve that problem?

I'm saying I don't recall why that commit needed to turn on the
clock itself. It certainly doesn't seem to be required at first
glance. I hope we can get away with just upping the count on the
clock and enable both parents to avoid the race condition so that
we don't have to worry about CLK_SET_PARENT_GATE.

On my hardware we need to have both parents on to switch the mux
in a glitch free manner. Using the .set_rate_and_parent op we can
change the mux value and the rate (i.e. divider) at the same time
with one register write. And we only need to worry about having
both parents on if the clock itself is on, which the framework
handles for us today.

Yes the helper is better than calling clk_prepare_enable()
directly.

Yes, actually we have already tried this way before to fix the issue
that don't gate parent clock in HW if any child is on during booting phase.
e.g. Clock A and B, B is child of A.
Both A and B clock are enabled in HW in bootloader.

Driver A probe:
clk_prepare_enable(A) -> clk_disable_unprepare(A)
In disable operation, clock framework finds there's a child B is on,
so framework will not gate clock A by calling ops->disable(), but instead,
only de-reference the enable_count, although it's enable_count becomes 0.
Then both A and B are still kept on in HW but not in clock tree state.

Later the clk_disable_unused feature in clock framework will gate those unused
clocks, both A and B, both HW and SW clock tree state are consistent.

We've tested this approach can work, but comparing to the approach we
finally used in this patch series, it has a few disadvantages:
1) The definition of the API clk_disable and clk_unprepare becomes a bit
slightly different from current one, it needs take count of the child clock
state while currently not.
2) It's more complicated and require more code changes.
3) more power consumption although not big deal
4) Manually create inconsistent state between HW and clock tree during
booting may be not good choice.

So we intend to the approach in this patch series that enable parent clock
during clk_disable_unused and disable it again if the clock type requires.
It's simple and easy understand.

Our hardware needs the parent clock on for all clock settings,
parent switch, rate change and even clock enable/disable, that's
why we met issues that system will hang when disabling clock B
while its parent A is off in clk_disable_unused during booting.

The .set_rate_and_parent won't work for our issue, it's only used
if reparent during change rate. And it only enables both parents
if the clock itself is on.

But you reminder me that the MX7D clock setting registers in target
interface has clock enable/mux/divider in one regiser.
That means we do can implement .set_rate_and_parent later.
It can be an improvement.
