-Known issues & workaround
--------------------------
-
-Some of the device drivers used on keystone are re-used from that from
-DaVinci and other TI SoCs. These device drivers may use clock APIs directly.
-Some of the keystone specific drivers such as netcp uses run time power
-management API instead to enable clock. As this API has limitations on
-keystone, following workaround is needed to boot Linux.
-
- Add 'clk_ignore_unused' to the bootargs env variable in u-boot. Otherwise
- clock frameworks will try to disable clocks that are unused and disable
- the hardware. This is because netcp related power domain and clock
- domains are enabled in u-boot as run time power management API currently
- doesn't enable clocks for netcp due to a limitation. This workaround is
- expected to be removed in the future when proper API support becomes
- available. Until then, this work around is needed.
