[PATCH v3 0/3] arm64: dts: qcom: PS8830 retimer clock fixes and typec0 enablement

From: Xin Liu

Date: Mon Sep 14 2026 - 06:18:14 EST


The Hamoa IoT EVK hardware design uses a Parade PS8830 retimer on
I2C3 for USB Type-C port 0. Describe the retimer and route typec0
through it to enable USB 3.0 SuperSpeed and DisplayPort Alt Mode.

Compared with v2, two new patches (1/3 and 2/3) are added. During the
v2 review [1], Konrad pointed out a suspicious clock reference. Further
checking confirmed that every PS8830 retimer on both Purwa and Hamoa
has its own on-board 25 MHz crystal wired to its XI/XO pins, so the
existing clock properties in the DTS are wrong and should be fixed.

Patch 1/3: Purwa, switch the three PS8830 nodes to on-board crystals (Fixes).
Patch 2/3: Hamoa, same for the two existing PS8830 nodes (Fixes).
Patch 3/3: Hamoa, add the typec0 PS8830 on I2C3 and drop the unused FSUSB42.

Tested on the Hamoa IoT EVK:
- USB 3.0 SuperSpeed at 5 Gbps on typec0
- DisplayPort Alt Mode on typec0

This series is based on the qcom tree's for-next branch
(git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/qcom/linux.git for-next).

BR,
Xin Liu


Changes in v3:
- Add purwa-iot-evk clock fix patch (1/3): replace RPMH RF clocks with
per-retimer fixed-clock nodes inside a new clocks {} container node
- Add hamoa-iot-evk clock fix patch (2/3): same fix for the two existing
PS8830 retimers on hamoa
- Replace RPMH RF clock in hamoa typec0 patch (3/3) with fixed-clock node
inside the existing clocks {} container node
- Split previous single hamoa patch into a clock fix (2/3) and the typec0
feature patch (3/3)
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260803132753.994619-1-xin.liu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/

Changes in v2:
- Updated the commit message to clarify that FSUSB42 is present on
PCB but with all signal lines unconnected (NC), rather than
"won't be populated"

Note: Changes in v2 and the Link above apply to patch 3/3 only.
