iMX8QXP: lpspi0 not working (PER clock rate = 0)

thomasritter — Fri, 13 Nov 2020 13:36:52 GMT

I try to get lpspi0 working on iMX8QXP, but get error

[ 240.903806] fsl_lpspi 5a000000.spi: per-clk (0) should be at least two times of transfer speed (8666666)

I hacked the driver spi-fsl-lpspi.c, so it prints the PER clk-rate and the expected speed when encountering issue in
static int fsl_lpspi_set_bitrate(struct fsl_lpspi_data *fsl_lpspi)

Also added a line to show probe was ok, yet also @ probe time PER clk is zero
[ 1.063590] fsl_lpspi 5a000000.spi: LPSPI probed IPG:160000000 PER:0

I am on latest kernel from https://source.codeaurora.org/external/imx/linux-imx.git
branch imx_5.4.47_2.2.0

the DT entry in imx8-ss-dma.dtsi
What look suspicious is that the oreder in "assigned-clocks" seems different than "clock-names"
Marked bold.

lpspi0: spi@5a000000 {
compatible = "fsl,imx7ulp-spi", "fsl,imx8qxp-spi";
reg = <0x5a000000 0x10000>;
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <0>;
interrupts = <GIC_SPI 216 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;
interrupt-parent = <&gic>;
clocks = <&spi0_lpcg 0>,
<&spi0_lpcg 1>;
clock-names = "per", "ipg";
assigned-clocks = <&clk IMX_SC_R_SPI_0 IMX_SC_PM_CLK_PER>;
assigned-clock-rates = <20000000>;
power-domains = <&pd IMX_SC_R_SPI_0>;
dma-names = "tx","rx";
dmas = <&edma2 1 0 0>, <&edma2 0 0 1>;
status = "disabled";
};

plus my override

&lpspi0 {
fsl,spi-num-chipselects = <1>;
pinctrl-names = "default";
pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_lpspi0>;
status = "okay";

secton: secton2@0 {
reg = <0>;
compatible = "atk,secton";
spi-max-frequency = <10000000>;
};
};

Any hints why the per-clk rate has always value 0 ? For ipg-clk I get value 160000000

I have sent the mail with patch to you, pls find it

DarrenJi — Mon, 30 Nov 2020 08:20:20 GMT

hi joanxie:

I have similar issue, my per clk is 58181818 and spi transfer failed with retcode -1.

could you share the patch on this post ?

derknut — Fri, 29 Jan 2021 14:17:44 GMT

Hello,

It seems I encounter a similar problem with my iMX8DXL board (per-clk: 0).

Please share your patch also to me.

Thanks a lot

Knut

Hi all,

same problem for me on imx8qxp based board with branch imx_5.4.70_2.3.0

Is it possible to share this patch (or a solution) ?

Thanks in advance

There seems to be low freq. at lpspi0 base clock definition:

Replace "assigned-clock-rates = <20000000>;" with "assigned-clock-rates = <60000000>;" in arch/arm64/boot/dts/freescale/imx8-ss-dma.dtsi (as for lpspi2/3/...) was helpful with my problem (per-clk: 0)

Hi WoK,

I adapted as you suggested:

lpspi2 / 3 has already 60Mhz in DTS and this solves my problem!

Thanks!

hi, joanxie, can you send to me the patch? my email address is 18089661@qq.com. i met the similar issue on imx8qxp mek.

Re: iMX8QXP: lpspi0 not working (PER clock rate = 0)

derknut1 — Tue, 27 Jul 2021 11:56:55 GMT

Fix is for: per-clk (0) should be at least two times of transfer speed

with too low base speed in SoC device tree.

Linux SPI numbering is given by board device tree ( I guess)
