Nitpick: for the DSP it was a/b, here it is 0/1
Could you pick one way or the other and stick to it ?
ok , I will use 0/1 for DSP.
I think I prefer a/b if you don't mind. see below for why ...

Mali is named as mali_0, mali_1 in this driver. And G12A/S4/GXBB series
do the same.
... A1 use dspa_a dspa_b (etc ...)

If they are named as anakin_a and anakin_b here, there will be two naming
methods.

Already have that unfortunately

Shall we keep consistent ?

Please try yes


okay,  I will use 0/1 to name them.

If use 0/1 to name them.

dsp clocks are:

dspa_0_sel

dspa_0_div

dspa_0

dspa_1_sel

dspa_1_div

dspa_1

dspb_0_sel

dspb_0_div

dspb_0

dspb_1_sel

dspb_1_div

dspb_1


anakin clocks are:

anakin_0_sel

anakin_0_div

anakin_0

anakin_1_sel

anakin_1_div

anakin_1

anakin_01_sel

anakin


If use a/b to name them.

dsp clocks are:

dspa_a_sel

dspa_a_div

dspa_a

dspa_b_sel

dspa_b_div

dspa_b

dspb_a_sel

dspb_a_div

dspb_a

dspb_b_sel

dspb_b_div

dspb_b


anakin clocks are:

anakin_a_sel

anakin_a_div

anakin_a

anakin_b_sel

anakin_b_div

anakin_b

anakin_ab_sel

anakin


Which one is better?
a/b or 0/1, we already have both

Pick which ever scheme you prefer, just stick to it from now on.


okay,  0/1 are more commonly used in Amlogic clock drivers. I will use this approach for T7 and later SoCs.


Thanks for your reply.

Again, not a great name, especially considering the one above.
Is this really really how the doc refers to these 2 clocks ?
bit30 gate clock is after bit31 mux clock, and the gate clock is the final
output clock, it is used to gate anakin clock.

I will rename bit31 as anakin_pre, rename bit30 as anakin.
Ok for the last element

... but I don't like "_pre" for a mux selecting one the 2 glitch free
path. It does not help understanding the tree.

For such mux, when it is not the last element, I would suggest
"_ab_sel" ... at least it is clear what it does so, "anakin_ab_sel" ?

ok, anakin_ab_sel and anakin for these two clocks.


Maybe anakin_01_sel and anakin for these two clocks, if you agree to 0/1
naming convention.
