[PATCH v3 1/2] clk: divider: Add KUnit tests for clk_divider_bestdiv() ULONG_MAX handling
From: Prabhakar
Date: Tue Apr 21 2026 - 14:26:39 EST
From: Lad Prabhakar <prabhakar.mahadev-lad.rj@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Add KUnit tests to verify the behaviour of clk_divider_bestdiv() when
clk_round_rate() is called with ULONG_MAX, which is the canonical way
to probe the maximum rate a clock can produce.
Two test cases are introduced:
- clk_divider_bestdiv_ulong_max_returns_max_rate: registers a 1 GHz
fixed-rate parent driving a table-based divider whose smallest entry
is div=2 (entries: 2, 4, 8). Calls clk_hw_round_rate(div_hw, ULONG_MAX)
and checks the result.
- clk_divider_bestdiv_mux_ulong_max_returns_max_rate: places a two-input
mux (4 GHz and 2 GHz fixed-rate parents, CLK_SET_RATE_PARENT) ahead of
the same table-based divider to verify correct parent selection under
ULONG_MAX.
Both tests use an explicit clk_div_table with a minimum divider of 2 so
that the pre-loop maxdiv clamping in clk_divider_bestdiv():
maxdiv = min(ULONG_MAX / rate, maxdiv);
clamps maxdiv to 1, causing _next_div() to return 2 on the first
iteration and skip the loop body entirely. This makes bestdiv fall back
to the maximum divider, returning the minimum rate rather than the
maximum.
The expected values intentionally reflect the buggy output:
- test 1: PARENT_RATE_1GHZ / 8 (minimum rate, not maximum)
- test 2: 0 (invalid, loop never populated bestdiv)
These will be corrected to PARENT_RATE_1GHZ / 2 and PARENT_RATE_4GHZ / 2
respectively once the fix to clk_divider_bestdiv() is applied.
