The MFG_ASYNC domain, which is likely associated to the whole MFG block,
currently specifies clk26m as its domain clock. This is bogus, since the
clock is an external crystal with no controls. Also, the MFG block has
a independent CLK_TOP_AXI_MFG_IN_SEL clock, which according to the block
diagram, gates access to the hardware registers. Having this one as the
domain clock makes much more sense. This also fixes access to the MFGTOP
registers.

Change the MFG_ASYNC domain clock to CLK_TOP_AXI_MFG_IN_SEL.

Just one question... what happens if there's no GPU support at all and this
power domain gets powered off?

I expect the answer to be "nothing", so I'm preventively giving you my

Well it's powered off by default. Just double checked, and without the final
patch:

# cat /sys/kernel/debug/pm_genpd/pm_genpd_summary
domain status children
performance
/device runtime status
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
mfg off-0
0
mfg_2d off-0
0
mfg
mfg_async off-0
0
mfg_2d

And with the last patch but with the powervr removed:

# cat /sys/kernel/debug/pm_genpd/pm_genpd_summary
domain status children
performance
/device runtime status
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
mfg_apm off-0
0
mfg off-0
0
mfg_apm
/devices/platform/soc/13fff000.clock-controller suspended
0
mfg_2d off-0
0
mfg
mfg_async off-0
0
mfg_2d

Things seem to work OK. I can SSH in, and the framebuffer console on the screen
works fine.


Note that accessing the regmap through debugfs doesn't do much good. regmap
doesn't handle runtime PM. And the syscon regmap isn't even tied to a
struct device. Dumping the regmap through debugfs while the power domain
is off gives all zeroes, likely due to bus isolation.


The last part where you say "gives all zeroes" is actually the best outcome that
I could have ever expected.

So, well, many thanks for this very nice analysis and test.

I confirm my green light. It's beautiful when this kind of patches come upstream
especially with your replies actually removing any kind of possible doubt.


Thanks!

Thank *you* for caring about this old platform!

Cheers,

....but if I'm wrong and the answer isn't exactly "nothing", then I still agree
with this commit, but only after removing the Fixes tag.

Cheers,
