ARM: OMAP: Make OMAP clocksource source selection using kernel param
Current OMAP code supports couple of clocksource options based on compilation flag (CONFIG_OMAP_32K_TIMER). The 32KHz sync-timer and a gptimer which can run on 32KHz or system clock (e.g 38.4 MHz). So there can be 3 options - 1. 32KHz sync-timer 2. Sys_clock based (e.g 13/19.2/26/38.4 MHz) gptimer 3. 32KHz based gptimer. The optional gptimer based clocksource was added so that it can give the high precision than sync-timer, so expected usage was 2 and not 3. Unfortunately option 2, clocksource doesn't meet the requirement of free-running clock as per clocksource need. It stops in low power states when sys_clock is cut. That makes gptimer based clocksource option useless for OMAP2/3/4 devices with sys_clock as a clock input. So, in order to use option 2, deeper idle state MUST be disabled. Option 3 will still work but it is no better than 32K sync-timer based clocksource. We must support both sync timer and gptimer based clocksource as some OMAP based derivative SoCs like AM33XX does not have the sync timer. Considering above, make sync-timer and gptimer clocksource runtime selectable so that both OMAP and AMXXXX continue to use the same code. And, in order to precisely configure/setup sched_clock for given clocksource, decision has to be made early enough in boot sequence. So, the solution is, Use standard kernel parameter ("clocksource=") to override default 32k_sync-timer, in addition to this, we also use hwmod database lookup mechanism, through which at run-time we can identify availability of 32k-sync timer on the device, else fall back to gptimer. Also, moved low-level SoC specific init code to respective files, (mach-omap1/timer32k.c and mach-omap2/timer.c) Signed-off-by: Vaibhav Hiremath <hvaibhav@ti.com> Signed-off-by: Felipe Balbi <balbi@ti.com> Reviewed-by: Santosh Shilimkar <santosh.shilimkar@ti.com> Acked-by: Kevin Hilman <khilman@ti.com> Tested-by: Kevin Hilman <khilman@ti.com> Cc: Benoit Cousson <b-cousson@ti.com> Cc: Paul Walmsley <paul@pwsan.com> Cc: Tarun Kanti DebBarma <tarun.kanti@ti.com> Cc: Ming Lei <tom.leiming@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Lindgren <tony@atomide.com>
