Commit Message

Mehdi Djait March 21, 2025, 9:38 a.m. UTC
Introduce a helper for v4l2 sensor drivers on both DT- and ACPI-based
platforms to retrieve a reference to the clock producer from firmware.

This helper behaves the same as clk_get_optional() except where there is
no clock producer like in ACPI-based platforms.

For ACPI-based platforms the function will read the "clock-frequency"
ACPI _DSD property and register a fixed frequency clock with the frequency
indicated in the property.

This patch will cause warnings when CONFIG_COMMON_CLK is disabled. Could
you use

	if (IS_REACHABLE(CONFIG_COMMON_CLK)) {
		...
	}

instead ? It will also ensure that all code gets compile-tested, even
when CONFIG_COMMON_CLK is disabled ?

If you want to minimize implementation, you could write

	if (!IS_REACHABLE(CONFIG_COMMON_CLK))
		return ERR_PTR(-ENOENT);

and keep the code below as-is.

As far as I understand, the name doesn't need to stay valid after
devm_clk_hw_register_fixed_rate() returns. You can call kasprintf here,
and call kfree after devm_clk_hw_register_fixed_rate(). You could use
__free to manage the memory life time:

	const char *clk_id __free(kfree) = NULL;

	if (!id) {
		clk_id = kasprintf(GFP_KERNEL, "clk-%s", dev_name(dev));
		if (!clk_id)
			return ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM);
		id = clk_id;
	}

This would work at the moment if devm_clk_hw_register_fixed_rate() was
always available but it evaluates to __clk_hw_register_fixed_rate() that
depends on COMMON_CLK.

I think t he best option would be to add a stub for it for !COMMON_CLK
case. It may take some time to get that merged and into the media tree. C99
also allows declaring variables midst of a basic block so declaring rate
and clkhw later should address the warning.

I don't fully understand the concern with the availability of the
function. It is used by drivers in multiple subsystems and any change to
it should take care of the API users.

Don't you think that adding a stub for !COMMON_CLK would make the series
take a much longer time to get merged and complicate the situation ?
