This patch add the support of PWM controller which can be found at aspeed
ast2600 soc. The pwm supoorts up to 16 channels and it's part function
of multi-function device "pwm-tach controller".

I think you need

Another is: The PWM doesn't support duty_cycle 0, on such a request the
PWM is disabled which results in a constant inactive level.

(This is correct, is it? Or does it yield a constant 0 level?)

pin_en?

I wouldn't call this "clk_..." if the register field isn't named
"CLK_...". I'd go for "dcp" or dutycycleperiod or similar.

If you split this into several lines it (IMHO) becomes better readable,
something like:

	/*
	 * This multiplication doesn't overflow, the upper bound is
	 * 1000000000 * 256 * 256 << 15 = 0x1dcd650000000000
	 */
	period_steps = (u64)NSEC_PER_SEC * (div_l + 1) * (clk_period + 1) << div_h;
	state->period = DIV_ROUND_UP_ULL(period_steps, rate);

> +	state->polarity = polarity;

I'd write

	state->polarity = polarity ? PWM_POLARITY_INVERSED : PWM_POLARITY_NORMAL;

here to get the type right and not depend on the actual numbers behind
these enum values.

I'd use "hwid" or "hwpwm" instead of "index"

Please care for rate * state->period not overflowing.

Indention is wrong here, please align the last line to the opening ( on
the previous line. Ditto for the regmap_update_bits call above.

It is (more) usual to capitalise error messages, so "Unsupported .."
please. Here and below.

Our pwm can support duty_cycle 0 by unset CLK_ENABLE.

Other naming suggestion I will fix in the next version.

This has a slightly different semantic though. Some consumer might
expect that the following sequence:

	pwm_apply(mypwm, { .period = 10000, .duty_cycle = 10000, .enabled = true })
	pwm_apply(mypwm, { .period = 10000, .duty_cycle = 0, .enabled = true })
	pwm_apply(mypwm, { .period = 10000, .duty_cycle = 10000, .enabled = true })

results in the output being low for an integer multiple of 10 µs. This
isn't given with setting CLK_ENABLE to zero, is it? (I didn't recheck,
if the PWM doesn't complete periods on reconfiguration this doesn't
matter much though.)

Best regards
Uwe

Thanks for the explanation.
Our hardware actually can only support duty from 1/256 to 256/256.
For this situation I can do possible solution:
We can though change polarity to meet this requirement. Inverse the pin and use
duty_cycle 100. 
But I think this is not a good solution for this problem right?

If this doesn't result in more glitches that would be fine for me.
(Assuming it is documented good enough in the code to be
understandable.)

The polarity of our pwm controller will affect the duty cycle range:
PWM_POLARITY_INVERSED : Support duty_cycle from 0% to 99%
PWM_POLARITY_NORMAL: Support duty_cycle from 1% to 100%
Dynamic change polarity will result in more glitches. Thus, this will become
a trade-off between 100% and 0% duty_cycle support for user to use our pwm device.
I will document it and send next patch.

For handling the situation that the user want to set the duty cycle to 0%, the driver can:
1. Just return the error.
2. Use the minimum duty cycle value.
I don't know which solution will be the better way or others.
I would be grateful if you can give me some suggestion about this problem.

I thought if you disable the PWM it emits the inactive level? Then this
is the best you can do if duty_cycle = 0 is requested.

Thanks for your quick reply.
When duty_cycle = 0 is requested my driver currently will emit the inactive level.
So, the next patch I need to do is to add the comment about this?

Not sure I got the complete picture now. The things I consider important
are:

 - If your hardware cannot emit a 100% or 0% relative duty cycle, note
   this in the Limitations section

 - Assuming your PWM emits the inactive level when disabled (that is 0
   for PWM_POLARITY_NORMAL and 1 for PWM_POLARITY_INVERSED) this is the
   best that can be done when a 0% relative duty cycle is requested
   (assuming the hardware cannot implement that in a normal way).

I hope this answered your remaining questions.

Our hardware is the same as this description. 
So I didn't need to add the limitations about the duty cycle, right?
Or I need to note that the duty cycle 0% is just the inactive output that doesn't have the period concept.

+ * PWM controller driver for Aspeed ast2600 SoCs.
+ * This drivers doesn't support earlier version of the IP.
+ *
+ * The formula of pwm period duration:
+ * period duration = ((DIV_L + 1) * (PERIOD + 1) << DIV_H) / input-clk
+ *
+ * The formula of pwm duty cycle duration:
+ * duty cycle duration = period duration * DUTY_CYCLE_FALLING_POINT / (PERIOD + 1)
+ * = ((DIV_L + 1) * DUTY_CYCLE_FALLING_POINT << DIV_H) / input-clk
+ *
+ * The software driver fixes the period to 255, which causes the high-frequency

+ *
+ * Register usage:
+ * PIN_ENABLE: When it is unset the pwm controller will always output low to the extern.
+ * Use to determine whether the PWM channel is enabled or disabled
+ * CLK_ENABLE: When it is unset the pwm controller will reset the duty counter to 0 and
+ * output low to the PIN_ENABLE mux after that the driver can still change the pwm period
+ * and duty and the value will apply when CLK_ENABLE be set again.
+ * Use to determine whether duty_cycle bigger than 0.
+ * PWM_ASPEED_CTRL_INVERSE: When it is toggled the output value will inverse immediately.
+ * PWM_ASPEED_DUTY_CYCLE_FALLING_POINT/PWM_ASPEED_DUTY_CYCLE_RISING_POINT: When these two

+ * - Disabling the PWM doesn't complete the current period.
+ *
+ * Improvements:
+ * - When only changing one of duty cycle or period, our pwm controller will not
