clocksources: Switch back to the clksrc table

2016-06-28T08:19:35Z

All the clocksource drivers's init function are now converted to return an error code. CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE is no longer used as well as the clksrc-of table. Let's convert back the names: - CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE_RET => CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE - clksrc-of-ret => clksrc-of Signed-off-by: Daniel Lezcano For exynos_mct and samsung_pwm_timer: Acked-by: Krzysztof Kozlowski For arch/arc: Acked-by: Vineet Gupta For mediatek driver: Acked-by: Matthias Brugger For the Rockchip-part Acked-by: Heiko Stuebner For STi : Acked-by: Patrice Chotard For the mps2-timer.c and versatile.c changes: Acked-by: Liviu Dudau For the OXNAS part : Acked-by: Neil Armstrong For LPC32xx driver: Acked-by: Sylvain Lemieux For Broadcom Kona timer change: Acked-by: Ray Jui For Sun4i and Sun5i: Acked-by: Chen-Yu Tsai For Meson6: Acked-by: Carlo Caione For Keystone: Acked-by: Santosh Shilimkar For NPS: Acked-by: Noam Camus For bcm2835: Acked-by: Eric Anholt

clocksource/drivers/sp804: Convert init function to return error

2016-06-28T08:19:30Z

The init functions do not return any error. They behave as the following: - panic, thus leading to a kernel crash while another timer may work and make the system boot up correctly or - print an error and let the caller unaware if the state of the system Change that by converting the init functions to return an error conforming to the CLOCKSOURCE_OF_RET prototype. Proper error handling (rollback, errno value) will be changed later case by case, thus this change just return back an error or success in the init function. Signed-off-by: Daniel Lezcano

clockevents/drivers/timer-sp804: Migrate to new 'set-state' interface

2015-08-10T09:40:55Z

Migrate timer-sp driver to the new 'set-state' interface provided by clockevents core, the earlier 'set-mode' interface is marked obsolete now. This also enables us to implement callbacks for new states of clockevent devices, for example: ONESHOT_STOPPED. There are few more changes worth noticing: - The clockevent device was disabled by writing: 'TIMER_CTRL_32BIT | TIMER_CTRL_IE' to ctrl register earlier. i.e. by un-setting the TIMER_CTRL_ENABLE bit. Its done by writing zero now and should have the same effect. - For shutdown and resume we were writing the same value twice to the register (to disable the timer), which is fixed now. - Switching to oneshot mode was divided into two parts earlier: - Firstly set_mode() was writing: 'TIMER_CTRL_32BIT | TIMER_CTRL_IE | TIMER_CTRL_ONESHOT' to ctrl register (device not enabled yet) - Then sp804_set_next_event() was enabling the device by writing 'readl(ctrl) | TIMER_CTRL_ENABLE' to the ctrl register. This was unnecessarily complicated. - Change this to: Stop device on set_state_oneshot and configure it in sp804_set_next_event().

ARM: 8366/1: move Dual-Timer SP804 driver to drivers/clocksource

2015-06-02T08:58:18Z

The ARM Dual-Timer SP804 module is peripheral found not only on ARM32 platforms but also on ARM64 platforms. This patch moves the driver out of arch/arm to driver/clocksource so that it can be used on ARM64 platforms also.
