Hi Stephen,

We are trying to migrate all meson clocks to the new parent structure.
There is a little quirk which forces us to continue to use legacy names
for a couple of clocks.

We heavily use static data which init everything to 0.
Here is an example:

static struct clk_regmap g12a_aoclk_cts_rtc_oscin = {
[...]
.hw.init = &(struct clk_init_data){
.name = "g12a_ao_cts_rtc_oscin",
.ops = &clk_regmap_mux_ops,
- .parent_names = (const char *[]){ "g12a_ao_32k_by_oscin",
- IN_PREFIX "ext_32k-0" },
+ .parent_data = (const struct clk_parent_data []) {
+ { .name = "g12a_ao_32k_by_oscin" },
+ { .fw_name = "ext-32k-0", },
+ },
.num_parents = 2,
.flags = CLK_SET_RATE_PARENT,
},
};

With this, instead of taking name = "g12a_ao_32k_by_oscin" for entry #0
it takes DT names at index 0 which is not what we intended.

If I understand correctly we should put
+ { .name = "g12a_ao_32k_by_oscin", index = -1, },

And would be alright ?

While I understand it, it is not very obvious or nice to look at.
Plus it is a bit weird that this -1 is required for .name and not .hw.

Do you think we could come up with a priority order which makes the first
example work ?

Something like:

if (hw) {
/* use pointer */
} else if (name) {
/* use legacy global names */
} else if (fw_name) {
/* use DT names */
} else if (index >= 0)
/* use DT index */
} else {
return -EINVAL;
}

The last 2 clause could be removed if we make index an unsigned.

Cheers
Jerome
