Kernel-4.18.0-80.el8_ptp-qoriq

  • Freescale QorIQ 1588 timer based PTP clock

General Properties:

  • compatible Should be “fsl,etsec-ptp”
  • reg Offset and length of the register set for the device
  • interrupts There should be at least two interrupts. Some devices
             have as many as four PTP related interrupts.
    

Clock Properties:

  • fsl,cksel Timer reference clock source.

  • fsl,tclk-period Timer reference clock period in nanoseconds.

  • fsl,tmr-prsc Prescaler, divides the output clock.

  • fsl,tmr-add Frequency compensation value.

  • fsl,tmr-fiper1 Fixed interval period pulse generator.

  • fsl,tmr-fiper2 Fixed interval period pulse generator.

  • fsl,max-adj Maximum frequency adjustment in parts per billion.

    These properties set the operational parameters for the PTP
    clock. You must choose these carefully for the clock to work right.
    Here is how to figure good values:

    TimerOsc = selected reference clock MHz
    tclk_period = desired clock period nanoseconds
    NominalFreq = 1000 / tclk_period MHz
    FreqDivRatio = TimerOsc / NominalFreq (must be greater that 1.0)
    tmr_add = ceil(2^32 / FreqDivRatio)
    OutputClock = NominalFreq / tmr_prsc MHz
    PulseWidth = 1 / OutputClock microseconds
    FiperFreq1 = desired frequency in Hz
    FiperDiv1 = 1000000 * OutputClock / FiperFreq1
    tmr_fiper1 = tmr_prsc * tclk_period * FiperDiv1 - tclk_period
    max_adj = 1000000000 * (FreqDivRatio - 1.0) - 1

    The calculation for tmr_fiper2 is the same as for tmr_fiper1. The
    driver expects that tmr_fiper1 will be correctly set to produce a 1
    Pulse Per Second (PPS) signal, since this will be offered to the PPS
    subsystem to synchronize the Linux clock.

    Reference clock source is determined by the value, which is holded
    in CKSEL bits in TMR_CTRL register. “fsl,cksel” property keeps the
    value, which will be directly written in those bits, that is why,
    according to reference manual, the next clock sources can be used:

    <0> - external high precision timer reference clock (TSEC_TMR_CLK

    input is used for this purpose);
    

    <1> - eTSEC system clock;
    <2> - eTSEC1 transmit clock;
    <3> - RTC clock input.

    When this attribute is not used, eTSEC system clock will serve as
    IEEE 1588 timer reference clock.

Example:

ptp_clock@24e00 {
    compatible = "fsl,etsec-ptp";
    reg = <0x24E00 0xB0>;
    interrupts = <12 0x8 13 0x8>;
    interrupt-parent = < &ipic >;
    fsl,cksel       = <1>;
    fsl,tclk-period = <10>;
    fsl,tmr-prsc    = <100>;
    fsl,tmr-add     = <0x999999A4>;
    fsl,tmr-fiper1  = <0x3B9AC9F6>;
    fsl,tmr-fiper2  = <0x00018696>;
    fsl,max-adj     = <659999998>;
};
