Description

It is necessary to use functions from clk.h correctly. This rule checks usage of functions clk_get, clk_prepare, clk_enable, clk_disable, clk_unprepare, clk_put.

- functions must be in the correct order
- function clk_put mustn't get null pointer

History

#1

Updated by Alexey Khoroshilov about 7 years ago

Are any known bugs of this kind?

#2

Updated by Vladimir Gratinskiy about 7 years ago

Commit 0afe0f1 at linux-stable fix that clk_put receives null pointer. Other commits I didn't find yet.

#3

Updated by Alexey Khoroshilov over 5 years ago

'clk_put mustn't get null pointer' is not actual requirement anymore.
The rule should be left to check correct usage of clk_ API (ordering, balancing, etc.), but it should not check for NULL pointers. So commit 0afe0f1 will be irrelevant to it.

Current rule implementation does not provide model for 'devm_clk_get', so it results into many false alarms.

#5

Updated by Ilja Zakharov almost 5 years ago

Another not implemented yet function is 'clk_prepare'.
