Add the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as base
Import the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as OPNFV kvm base.
It's from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-rt-devel.git linux-4.1.y-rt and
the base is:
commit 0917f823c59692d751951bf5ea699a2d1e2f26a2
Author: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de>
Date: Sat Jul 25 12:13:34 2015 +0200
Prepare v4.1.3-rt3
Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de>
We lose all the git history this way and it's not good. We
should apply another opnfv project repo in future.

id="clk"> + <title>Clock Framework</title> + + <para> + The clock framework defines programming interfaces to support + software management of the system clock tree. + This framework is widely used with System-On-Chip (SOC) platforms + to support power management and various devices which may need + custom clock rates. + Note that these "clocks" don't relate to timekeeping or real + time clocks (RTCs), each of which have separate frameworks. + These <structname>struct clk</structname> instances may be used + to manage for example a 96 MHz signal that is used to shift bits + into and out of peripherals or busses, or otherwise trigger + synchronous state machine transitions in system hardware. + </para> + + <para> + Power management is supported by explicit software clock gating: + unused clocks are disabled, so the system doesn't waste power + changing the state of transistors that aren't in active use. + On some systems this may be backed by hardware clock gating, + where clocks are gated without being disabled in software. + Sections of chips that are powered but not clocked may be able + to retain their last state. + This low power state is often called a <emphasis>retention + mode</emphasis>. + This mode still incurs leakage currents, especially with finer + circuit geometries, but for CMOS circuits power is mostly used + by clocked state changes. + </para> + + <para> + Power-aware drivers only enable their clocks when the device + they manage is in active use. Also, system sleep states often + differ according to which clock domains are active: while a + "standby" state may allow wakeup from several active domains, a + "mem" (suspend-to-RAM) state may require a more wholesale shutdown + of clocks derived from higher speed PLLs and oscillators, limiting + the number of possible wakeup event sources. A driver's suspend + method may need to be aware of system-specific clock constraints + on the target sleep state. + </para> + + <para> + Some platforms support programmable clock generators. These + can be used by external chips of various kinds, such as other + CPUs, multimedia codecs, and devices with strict requirements + for interface clocking. + </para> + +!Iinclude/linux/clk.h + </chapter> + +</book> |
