From: Ondrej Jirman <meg...@megous.com>

RTC on H6 is mostly the same as on H5 and H3. It has slight differences
mostly in features that are not yet supported by this driver.

Some differences are already stated in the comments in existing code.
One other difference is that H6 has extra bit in LOSC_CTRL_REG, called
EXT_LOSC_EN to enable/disable external low speed crystal oscillator.

It also has bit EXT_LOSC_STA in LOSC_AUTO_SWT_STA_REG, to check whether
external low speed oscillator is working correctly.

This patch adds support for enabling LOSC when necessary:

- during reparenting
- when probing the clock

H6 also has capacbility to automatically reparent RTC clock from
external crystal oscillator, to internal RC oscillator, if external
oscillator fails. This is enabled by default. Disable it during
probe.

I have two versions of BSP (don't ask me which) which have this set as bit 14
and changing this to 14 actually solves all my problems with LOSC (no more
issues with setting RTC and HDMI-CEC works now - it uses LOSC as parent) on
Tanix TX6 box.

Interesting. Is LOSC fed externally generated clock, or is it setup as a crystal
oscillator on your board?

Anyway, see here:

https://megous.com/git/linux/tree/drivers/rtc/rtc-sunxi.h?h=h6-4.9-bsp#n649
https://megous.com/git/linux/tree/drivers/rtc/rtc-sunxi.c?h=h6-4.9-bsp#n652

It would be nice to know what's really happening.

My output is:

[ 0.832252] sun6i-rtc 7000000.rtc: registered as rtc0
[ 0.832257] sun6i-rtc 7000000.rtc: RTC enabled
[ 1.728968] sun6i-rtc 7000000.rtc: setting system clock to 1970-01-01T00:00:07 UTC (7)

I think, you may have just enabled the auto switch feature, and running the
clock from low precision RC oscillator with your patch.

The real issue probably is that the mainline driver is missing this:

Interesting, 4.9 BSP has additional bit definition, which is not documented in
manual and 3.10 BSP to which I refer.

I was referring to 3.10 BSP, which uses only bit 14. I thought that you named
it differently.

With change, I get same output.

True, now I think there is no external crystal, but I'm still not sure how to
confirm that.

Not sure what you mean by that. ext vs. int source selection?

Visually?

That would explain why it doesn't work for you. The mainline RTC driver
disables auto-switch feature, and if your board doesn't have a crystal for LOSC,
RTC will not generate a clock for the RTC.

H6's dtsi describes by default a situatiuon with external 32k crystal
oscillator. See ext_osc32k node. That's incorrect for your board if it doesn't
have the crystal. You need to fix this in the DTS for your board instead of
patching the driver.

The driver has parent clock selection logic in case the LOSC crystal is not
used.

Your patch enables automatic detection of LOSC failure and RTC changes clock
to LOSC automatically, despite what's described in the DTS. That may fix the
issue, but is not the correct solution.

Registers on my board look like this (external 32k osc is used) for reference:

LOSC_CTRL_REG[7000000]: 8011
KEY_FIELD ??? (0)
LOSC_AUTO_SWT_BYPASS EN (1)
LOSC_AUTO_SWT_EN DIS (0)
EXT_LOSC_EN EN (1)
EXT_LOSC_GSM LOW (0)
BATTERY_DIR DISCHARGE (0)
LOSC_SRC_SEL EXT32k (1)

LOSC_AUTO_SWT_STA_REG[7000004]: 1
EXT_LOSC_STA OK (0)
LOSC_AUTO_SWT_PEND NOEFF (0)
LOSC_SRC_SEL_STA EXT32K (1)

In my case LOSC_CTRL_REG has value 0x4010 and LOSC_AUTO_SWT_STA_REG
has value 0x4, so there is issue with external crystal (it's missing) and RTC
switched to internal one.

BTW, what's wrong with automatic switching? Why is it disabled?

You may try removing the clocks property from rtc node.

It always was disabled on mainline (bit 14 was set to 0 even before my patch).
H6 just probably has another extra undocummented bit, that's needed to disables
it properly.

You probably don't want a glitch to switch your RTC from high-precision
clock to a low precision one possibly without any indication in the userspace
or a kernel log.

Regardless of all this, DTS needs to have a correct description of the HW,
which means if RTC module is not connected to the 32.757kHz crystal/clock,
clocks property should be empty.

o.

I don't think this would work:
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/drivers/rtc/rtc-sun6i.c#L246
If we are talking about correct HW description, then clock property should
actually have possibility that two clocks are defined - one for internal RC
(always present) and one external crystal (optional). In such case I could
really just omit external clock and be done with it. But I'm not sure if such
solution is acceptable at this point.

Well, I don't know. There has to be some way to make it work, since the code
deals with it here:

https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/drivers/rtc/rtc-sun6i.c#L270

Number of parents for LOSC is calculated from the DT somehow. Maybne something
to do with the #clock-cells property?

Sorry I can't be of more help here.
Internal RC is thought to be part of the RTC module, so it's not defined as an
input clock to the RTC module.

Ondrej
