[PATCH v2 1/2] clk: add gated-fixed-clock driver

Daniele Briguglio hello at superkali.me
Tue May 19 13:55:49 CEST 2026


Add a UCLASS_CLK driver matching the Linux DT binding documented at
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/clock/gated-fixed-clock.yaml, a
fixed-rate oscillator whose output is enabled by toggling a
regulator supply.  The optional enable-gpios variant is not
implemented.

The first user in U-Boot will be rk3588-rock-5-itx, where the PCIe3
ports reference a PI6C 100MHz oscillator declared with this
compatible and pcie_dw_rockchip currently fails clk_get_by_index()
with -ENODEV on every boot since v2026.04.
