} else if (state->enabled) {

}

and get rid of the if (state->enabled) in between? This would safe us
useless recalculation when disabling the controller...

I get your point, but I'm pretty sure your proposal does not do what
you want (remember that cstate is the current state, and state is the
new state to apply).

Something like that would work better:

	if (state->enabled) {
		c = clk_get_rate(imx->clk_per);
		c *= state->period;

		do_div(c, 1000000000);
		period_cycles = c;

		prescale = period_cycles / 0x10000 + 1;

		period_cycles /= prescale;
		c = (unsigned long long)period_cycles *
		    state->duty_cycle;
		do_div(c, state->period);
		duty_cycles = c;

		/*
		 * According to imx pwm RM, the real period value
		 * should be PERIOD value in PWMPR plus 2.
		 */
		if (period_cycles > 2)
			period_cycles -= 2;
		else
			period_cycles = 0;

		/*
		 * Enable the clock if the PWM is not already
		 * enabled.
		 */
		if (!cstate.enabled) {
			ret = clk_prepare_enable(imx->clk_per);
			if (ret)
			return ret;
		}

		/*
		 * Wait for a free FIFO slot if the PWM is already
		 * enabled, and flush the FIFO if the PWM was disabled
		 * and is about to be enabled.
		 */
		if (cstate.enabled)
			imx_pwm_wait_fifo_slot(chip, pwm);
		else
			imx_pwm_sw_reset(chip);

		writel(duty_cycles, imx->mmio_base + MX3_PWMSAR);
		writel(period_cycles, imx->mmio_base + MX3_PWMPR);

		writel(MX3_PWMCR_PRESCALER(prescale) |
		       MX3_PWMCR_DOZEEN | MX3_PWMCR_WAITEN |
		       MX3_PWMCR_DBGEN | MX3_PWMCR_CLKSRC_IPG_HIGH |
		       MX3_PWMCR_EN,
		       imx->mmio_base + MX3_PWMCR);
	} else {

		writel(0, imx->mmio_base + MX3_PWMCR);

		/* Disable the clock if the PWM is currently enabled. */
		if (cstate.enabled)
			clk_disable_unprepare(imx->clk_per);
	}


This being said, I'm a bit concerned by the way this driver handles PWM
config requests.
It seems that the new config request is queued, and nothing guarantees
that it is actually applied when the pwm_apply/config/enable/disable()
functions return.

This approach has several flaws IMO:

1/ I'm not sure this is what the PWM users expect. Getting your request
   queued with no guarantees that it is applied can be weird in some
   cases (especially when the user changes the PWM config several times
   in a short period of time).
2/ In the disable path, you queue a "stop PWM" request, but you're not
   sure that it's actually dequeued before the per clk is disabled.
   What happens in that case? And more importantly, what happens when
   the PWM is re-enabled to apply a new config? AFAICS, there might be
   a short period of time where the re-enabled PWM is actually running
   with the old config until we flush the command queue and queue a new
   command.
3/ The queueing approach complicates the whole logic. You have to
   flush the FIFO in some cases, or wait for an empty slots if too many
   commands are queued.
   Forcing imx_pwm_apply_v2() to wait for the config request to be
   applied should simplify the whole thing, because you will always be
   guaranteed that the FIFO is empty, and that the current
   configuration is the last requested one.

Regards,

Boris

Oops, yes, got that wrong. state->enabled is what I meant.

Not sure if that is true. The RM says: "A change in the period value due
to a write in PWM_PWMPR results in the counter being reset to zero and
the start of a new count period."

And for PWMSAR: "When a new value is written, the duty cycle changes
after the current period is over."

So I guess writing the period basically makes sure the next value from
PWMSAR will be active immediately...

Given that the driver did it like that since quite some time, I am
assuming it mostly works in practice. 

I would rather prefer to do that conversion to atomic PWM API now, and
fix that in a second step...

I'm also for fixing one problem in a time. The "PWM ->apply()" set of
patches now tries to fix all problems in IMX PWM driver.

Could we agree on the scope of this work? I mean what should be
included to "->apply()" rework and what will be fixed latter?

Frankly, I think that this patch series comes to the point where it is
not manageable anymore.

Please also keep in mind that I do have iMX6q system, Stefan has imx7
and Sasha has HW with PWMv1 working.

Changing the driver in N different places not related to the
"->apply()" atomicity support (the ipg clock, FIFO) requires far more
work and testing.

I never asked to fix that in this series ;-), I was just pointing the
weird behavior of the existing code.

Let's focus on the atomic support for now.

So Boris, you don't have any comments to the atomic support patches? :-)

Stefan, do you require to change the ipg stuff in the atomic series or
could it be done as a subsequent patch?

If you don't have any more questions, I will prepare next patch
iteration according to Stefan comments.
