Hi Morimoto-san

Thanks for your comments

This parent_name is very strange to me.
AVB parent clk is "AUDIO_CLK_A/B/C/I" (= clk_a/b/c/i in this driver)
or "AUDIO_CLK_OUT_A/B/C/D" (= audio_clkout/1/2/3 in this driver).
And we don't have "adg" clock.
Please double check it.
I have some local device-tree change, which expends 'adg' register
range and add
"adg" clock to rcar_sound node which refer to newly added 'adg' clock
(S0D1Ï) in this patch-set

Noooo !!
It breaks sound clock / module stop controling !!
Can you let me know how it breaks sound clock / module stop
so that I can come up with a fix
OK, now I checked more detail of ADG for EAVB/IF.

1st, I don't think we need to add "adg" clock.
It is not exist on Gen2, and default ON on Gen3.
If you want to add it, please add it to "last" of clocks, not "first".
"first" clock is handling whole SSI power.
as this device-tree change is only local, I will move 'adg' clock to 'last' of clocks,
when I submit it.
2nd, it is "Module stop clock", not "S0D1Ï".
We already handling it as "clk_i".
SMSTPCR922 controls input of two clocks "S0D1Ï" and "S0D4Ï",
"S0D4Ï" is input to BRGA,
"S0D1Ï" is input to avb_counter8

3rd, we need to create new clock/handler for
avb_counter8 / audio_clk_div3 / avb_div8 for "internal" purpose,
and need to create avb_adg_syn[] clock for "external" purpose for EAVB/IF.
Your code is creating / registering adg->clkavb[],
but it is for avb_counter8 in my understanding.
We don't need to register it as formal clock IMO.
I agree, besides avb_counter8 there are other clocks which need to be added as you have mentioned,
in this patch-set, I only added avb_counter8, because I want to keep the patch-set simple,
other clocks can be added later.

avb_counter8 is registered as formal clock is because,
there is use case that EAVB-IF may use avb_div8, and avb_counter8 is input to avb_div8.
if keeps avb_counter8 'internal', I am not sure how EAVB-IF can set clock rate for avb_counter8
4th, EAVB driver need to get clock from AVB via DT
as "avb_adg_syn[]" clock, not "avb_counter8".

I'm not sure EAVB side driver, but please double check these.
yes, EAVB driver only needs to get 'avb_adg_sync[]' clock,
and avb_adg_sync clock is child clock of audio_clk_div3 / avb_div8


Thanks,
