- <chapter id="clk"> - <title>Clock Framework</title> - - <para> - The clock framework defines programming interfaces to support - software management of the system clock tree. - This framework is widely used with System-On-Chip (SOC) platforms - to support power management and various devices which may need - custom clock rates. - Note that these "clocks" don't relate to timekeeping or real - time clocks (RTCs), each of which have separate frameworks. - These <structname>struct clk</structname> instances may be used - to manage for example a 96 MHz signal that is used to shift bits - into and out of peripherals or busses, or otherwise trigger - synchronous state machine transitions in system hardware. - </para> - - <para> - Power management is supported by explicit software clock gating: - unused clocks are disabled, so the system doesn't waste power - changing the state of transistors that aren't in active use. - On some systems this may be backed by hardware clock gating, - where clocks are gated without being disabled in software. - Sections of chips that are powered but not clocked may be able - to retain their last state. - This low power state is often called a <emphasis>retention - mode</emphasis>. - This mode still incurs leakage currents, especially with finer - circuit geometries, but for CMOS circuits power is mostly used - by clocked state changes. - </para> - - <para> - Power-aware drivers only enable their clocks when the device - they manage is in active use. Also, system sleep states often - differ according to which clock domains are active: while a - "standby" state may allow wakeup from several active domains, a - "mem" (suspend-to-RAM) state may require a more wholesale shutdown - of clocks derived from higher speed PLLs and oscillators, limiting - the number of possible wakeup event sources. A driver's suspend - method may need to be aware of system-specific clock constraints - on the target sleep state. - </para> - - <para> - Some platforms support programmable clock generators. These - can be used by external chips of various kinds, such as other - CPUs, multimedia codecs, and devices with strict requirements - for interface clocking. - </para> - -!Iinclude/linux/clk.h - </chapter> - -</book> |
