I have a question regarding this patch, which is mainline meanwhile [1]:

Having the following clock configuration:

                                         |--> child clk '1' (crit)
clk source --> parent clk 'A' (crit) -->|
                                         |--> child clk '2'


Clock '2' might be used, or not. It might be disabled or not. It doesn't 
matter. Clock '1' is not allowed to be disabled. Therefore its marked as 
critical.

Parent clock 'A' is marked as critical because its not allowed to be 
disabled, even if the enable_count of all child clocks is 0. To avoid 
that by disabling parent clock 'A' the child clock '1' is disabled, too, 
whats not allowed as its marked as critical.


Now, child clock '2' is used and enabled & disabled continuously by a 
(SPI) driver. What is ok. But:

Disabling child clock '2' results in the attempt to disable parent clock 
'A', too, which has correct enable_count 1 (from enabling the child 
'2'). What results

a) in the WARN_ON output

and

b) enable_count of 'A' never decreases to 0. Being off by one after the 
WARN_ON


It sounds like both is wrong for a configuration like above.

Opinions or proposal how to fix/change this?


Best regards

Dirk

Clock A still has one user, Clock 1.

Why is that wrong?

Because clock 1 is not a (Linux kernel clock framework) used clock. Its 
enable count is 0. So from Linux kernel (clock framework) point of view 
clock 1 is unused.

The increase/decrease of enable count of parent clock A is only driven 
by the Linux kernel usage of clock 2.

All critical clocks are 'used'.  That's the point of critical clocks.

Could you translate 'used' to enable_count? Whats valid enable_count 
numbers for critical clocks?

'used' == 'currently in use' == 'enabled'

Here's the piece of the puzzle you're probably missing:

	if (core->flags & CLK_IS_CRITICAL) {
		clk_core_prepare(core);
		clk_core_enable(core);
	}

Any clock that is identified as critical is prepared and enabled.

Thus your use_count of 1 is actually correct.
