From 2a341f5cf57dce9d89b41484a69e88adc6422f6c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Brownell Date: Fri, 22 Feb 2008 17:23:23 -0800 Subject: atmel_tc library Create based on and the at91sam9263 and at32ap7000 datasheets. Most AT91 and AT32 SOCs have one or two of these TC blocks, which include three 16-bit timers that can be interconnected in various ways. These TC blocks can be used for external interfacing (such as PWM and measurement), or used as somewhat quirky sixteen-bit timers. Changes relative to the original version: * Drop unneeded inclusion of * Support an arbitrary number of TC blocks * Return a struct with information about a TC block from atmel_tc_alloc() instead of using a combination of return values and "out" parameters. * ioremap() the I/O registers on allocation * Look up clocks and irqs for all channels * Add "name" parameter to atmel_tc_alloc() and use this when requesting the iomem resource. * Check if the platform provided the necessary resources at probe() time instead of when the TCB is allocated.

The clockevent device handles both periodic and oneshot modes, so this enables NO_HZ and high res timers on some platforms that previously couldn't use those mechanisms. This works on both AVR32 and AT91 chips, given relevant patches for tclib support (always) and clockevents (or else this will only look like a higher precision clocksource). It's an updated and modularized version of an AT91-only patch that has circulated for some time now. Changes relative to the original patch: * Update to use new tclib API * Replace open-coded do-while loop using goto with a real do-while loop * Minor irq handler optimization: Load register base address from dev_id instead of a global variable. * Aggressively turn off clocks when the clockevent isn't being used * Include the clockevent code on AT91RM9200 as well. The rating is lower than the System Timer, so the clock will usually stay off. * Don't assume that the number of clocks is always equal to the number of irqs.
