[PATCH net] dpll: zl3073x: Fix ref frequency setting
From: Ivan Vecera
Date: Mon Feb 16 2026 - 14:40:25 EST
The frequency for an input reference is computed as:
frequency = freq_base * freq_mult * freq_ratio_m / freq_ratio_n
Before commit 5bc02b190a3fb ("dpll: zl3073x: Cache all reference
properties in zl3073x_ref"), zl3073x_dpll_input_pin_frequency_set()
explicitly wrote 1 to both the REF_RATIO_M and REF_RATIO_N hardware
registers whenever a new frequency was set. This ensured the FEC ratio
was always reset to 1:1 alongside the new base/multiplier values.
The refactoring in that commit introduced zl3073x_ref_freq_set() to
update the cached ref state, but this helper only sets freq_base and
freq_mult without resetting freq_ratio_m and freq_ratio_n to 1. Because
zl3073x_ref_state_set() uses a compare-and-write strategy, unchanged
ratio fields are never written to the hardware. If the device previously
had non-unity FEC ratio values, they remain in effect after a frequency
change, resulting in an incorrect computed frequency.
Explicitly set freq_ratio_m and freq_ratio_n to 1 in zl3073x_ref_freq_set()
to restore the original behavior.
