6-----------------------
7In addition to the required compatible-, reg- and interrupt-properties, you can
8also specify which clock source shall be used for the controller.
9
10CPI Clock- Can Protocol Interface Clock
11 This CLK_SRC bit of CTRL(control register) selects the clock source to
12 the CAN Protocol Interface(CPI) to be either the peripheral clock
13 (driven by the PLL) or the crystal oscillator clock. The selected clock
14 is the one fed to the prescaler to generate the Serial Clock (Sclock).
15 The PRESDIV field of CTRL(control register) controls a prescaler that
16 generates the Serial Clock (Sclock), whose period defines the
17 time quantum used to compose the CAN waveform.
18
19Can Engine Clock Source
20 There are two sources for CAN clock
21 - Platform Clock It represents the bus clock
22 - Oscillator Clock
23
24 Peripheral Clock (PLL)

33 Oscillator Clock
34
35- fsl,flexcan-clock-source : CAN Engine Clock Source.This property selects
36 the peripheral clock. PLL clock is fed to the
37 prescaler to generate the Serial Clock (Sclock).
38 Valid values are "oscillator" and "platform"
39 "oscillator": CAN engine clock source is oscillator clock.
40 "platform" The CAN engine clock source is the bus clock
41 (platform clock).
42
43- fsl,flexcan-clock-divider : for the reference and system clock, an additional
44 clock divider can be specified.
45- clock-frequency: frequency required to calculate the bitrate for FlexCAN.
46
47Note:
48 - v1.0 of flexcan-v1.0 represent the IP block version for P1010 SOC.
49 - P1010 does not have oscillator as the Clock Source.So the default
50 Clock Source is platform clock.
51Examples:
52
53 can0@1c000 {
54 compatible = "fsl,flexcan-v1.0";
55 reg = <0x1c000 0x1000>;
56 interrupts = <48 0x2>;
57 interrupt-parent = <&mpic>;
58 fsl,flexcan-clock-source = "platform";
59 fsl,flexcan-clock-divider = <2>;
60 clock-frequency = <fixed by u-boot>;
61 };
