      Doc: dt: arch_timer: discourage clock-frequency use · 4155fc07
      Mark Rutland 提交于
      The ARM Generic Timer (AKA the architected timer, arm_arch_timer)
      features a CPU register (CNTFRQ) which firmware is intended to
      initialize, and non-secure software can read to determine the frequency
      of the timer. On CPUs with secure state, this register cannot be written
      from non-secure states.
      
      The firmware of early SoCs featuring the timer did not correctly
      initialize CNTFRQ correctly on all CPUs, requiring the frequency to be
      described in DT as a workaround. This workaround is not complete however
      as it is exposed to all software in a privileged non-secure mode
      (including guests running under a hypervisor). The firmware and DTs for
      recent SoCs have followed the example set by these early SoCs.
      
      This patch updates the arch timer binding documentation to make it
      clearer that the use of the clock-frequency property is a poor
      work-around. The MMIO generic timer binding is similarly updated, though
      this is less of a concern as there is generally no need to expose the
      MMIO timers to guest OSs.
