Some background: It was done that way to support decoder core with specific clocks and similarly for encoder. Earlier architectures use to have different clock source for these specific decoder/encoder core clocks, now there is a common clock source for both the cores. Hence if any one is enabled, others gets enabled as it is derived from same source. So if we see the later bindings, the clocks were moved out of sub node to main venus node.

It's unfortunate because another binding has been created to represent the same hardware to solve a "problem" that could have been dealt with using a couple lines of C and that we now need to carry support for.

Yeah and I don't really see the reason why the binding needed to be changed for this, you can simply get the clocks by name and poke at the specific clk* (or an array of them), no matter where they were _get()-ed from.

The firmware runs on the controller and takes care of many aspects of hardware (dsp or core) programming. >> >>>> + * >>>> + * MSM8916 (and possibly other HFIv1 users) only feature the "main logic" >>>> + * domain, so this function is the only kind if clk_get necessary there. >> To be checked, unable to get the clock document to see why only core clocks >> (VENUS0_VCODEC0_CLK).

It is precisely that way, just that there are cases of cores with dedicated codec support, hence identical implies that each of them can do same processing. >> >>>> + * >>>> + * Other SoCs either feature a single video core (with its own clock domain) >>>> + * or one video core and one CVP (Computer Vision Processor) core.

I think the reason for not doing a name based clock as it might be possible that the clock is not available or applicable to subsequent SOC. Regards, Vikash
