In accordance with the way the MIPS platform is normally design there are
only six clock sources which need to be available on the kernel start in
order to one end up booting correctly:
+ CPU PLL: needed by the r4k and MIPS GIC timer drivers. The former one is
initialized by the arch code, while the later one is implemented in the
mips-gic-timer.c driver as the OF-declared timer.
+ PCIe PLL: required as a parental clock source for the APB/timer domains.
+ APB clock: needed in order to access all the SoC CSRs at least for the
timer OF-declared drivers.
+ APB Timer{0-2} clocks: these are the DW APB timers which drivers
dw_apb_timer_of.c are implemented as the OF-declared timers.
So as long as the clocks above are available early the kernel will
normally work. Let's convert the Baikal-T1 CCU drivers to the platform
device drivers keeping that in mind.
Generally speaking the conversion isn't that complicated since the driver
infrastructure has been designed as flexible enough for that. First we
need to add a new PLL/Divider clock features flag which indicates the
corresponding clock source as a basic one and that clock sources will be
available on the kernel early boot stages. Second the internal PLL/Divider
descriptors need to be initialized with -EPROBE_DEFER value as the
corresponding clock source is unavailable at the early stages. They will
be allocated and initialized on the Baikal-T1 clock platform driver probe
procedure. Finally the already available PLL/Divider init functions need
to be split up into two ones: init procedure performed in the framework of
the OF-declared clock initialization (of_clk_init()), and the probe
procedure called by the platform devices bus driver. Note the later method
will just continue the system clocks initialization started in the former
one.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
