Currently, the flags for the ACM clocks are set to 0. This configuration causes the fsl-sai audio driver to fail when attempting to set the sysclk, returning an EINVAL error. The following error messages highlight the issue: fsl-sai 59090000.sai: ASoC: error at snd_soc_dai_set_sysclk on 59090000.sai: -22 imx-hdmi sound-hdmi: failed to set cpu sysclk: -22
The reason for this error is that the current clock parent can't support the rate you require (I think you want 11289600).
We can configure the dts to provide such source, for example:
&sai5 {
assigned-clocks = <&acm IMX_ADMA_ACM_SAI5_MCLK_SEL>,<&acm IMX_ADMA_ACM_AUD_CLK1_SEL>,<&clk IMX_SC_R_AUDIO_PLL_0 IMX_SC_PM_CLK_PLL>,<&clk IMX_SC_R_AUDIO_PLL_0 IMX_SC_PM_CLK_SLV_BUS>,<&clk IMX_SC_R_AUDIO_PLL_0 IMX_SC_PM_CLK_MST_BUS>,<&clk IMX_SC_R_AUDIO_PLL_1 IMX_SC_PM_CLK_PLL>,<&clk IMX_SC_R_AUDIO_PLL_1 IMX_SC_PM_CLK_SLV_BUS>,<&clk IMX_SC_R_AUDIO_PLL_1 IMX_SC_PM_CLK_MST_BUS>,<&sai5_lpcg 0>;assigned-clock-parents = <&aud_pll_div0_lpcg 0>, <&aud_rec1_lpcg 0>;assigned-clock-rates = <0>, <0>, <786432000>, <49152000>, <12288000>,<722534400>, <45158400>, <11289600>,<49152000>; status = "okay";};
Then your case should work.
By setting the flag CLK_SET_RATE_NO_REPARENT, we signal that the ACM
I don't think CLK_SET_RATE_NO_REPARENT is a good choice. which will cause the driver don't get an error from clk_set_rate().
Thanks for the proposal, I will try it out tomorrow. Isn't this a problem if other SAIs use the same clock source but with different rates?
If we have to define fixed rates in the DTS or else the clock driver will return an error, isn't that a problem? Maybe I should change the sai driver so that it ignores the failure and just takes the rate configured? In the end audio works, even if it can't set the requested rate.
The following clock tree change would allow the driver to work in our scenario: &sai5 { assigned-clocks = <&acm IMX_ADMA_ACM_SAI5_MCLK_SEL>, <&clk IMX_SC_R_AUDIO_PLL_1 IMX_SC_PM_CLK_PLL>; assigned-clock-parents = <&aud_pll_div1_lpcg 0>; assigned-clock-rates = <0>, <11289600>; };
In which we configure PLL_0 for 48KHz series (8kHz/16kHz/32kHz/48kHz), PLL_1 for 44kHz series (11kHz/22kHz/44kHz), which should fit for most audio requirements.
However, this means we have to switch the parent clock to the audio pll
- For the simple setup with two SAIs, one for analog audio and one for
HDMI this wouldn't be a problem. But I'm not sure if this is a good solution if a customer would add a third SAI which requires again a different parent clock rate.
We won't change the PLL's rate in the driver, so as PLL_0 for 48kHz, PLL_1 for 44kHz, even with a third SAI or more, they should work.
One potential solution could be that the SAI driver tries to first derive the clock from the current parent and only if this fails it tries to modify its parent clock. What do you think about this solution?
It's better to avoid modifying parent rate, as drivers don't know if the parent is used by another instance.
