[PATCH v3 2/3] pwm: rp1: Add RP1 PWM controller driver

Andrea della Porta andrea.porta at suse.com
Thu Apr 23 01:30:20 PDT 2026


From: Naushir Patuck <naush at raspberrypi.com>

The Raspberry Pi RP1 southbridge features an embedded PWM
controller with 4 output channels, alongside an RPM interface
to read the fan speed on the Raspberry Pi 5.

Add the supporting driver.

+ *
+ * Limitations:
+ * - Channels can be enabled/disabled through a global update flag, while the
+ *   period and duty per-channel registers are independently updatable, and
+ *   they are latched on the end of (specific channel) period strobe.
+ *   This means that period and duty changes might result in glitches if the
+ *   period/duty is changed exactly during an end of period strobe.
+ * - Since the duty/period registers are freely updatable (do not depend on
+ *   the global update flag), setting one of them close to the period end and
+ *   the other right afterwards results in a mixed output for that cycle because
+ *   the write ops are not atomic.
+ * - The global update flag prevents mis-sampling of multi-bit bus signals in
+ *   the PWM clock domain. This ensures that all PWM channel settings update
+ *   on the same PWM clock cycle. Channels start in sync only if they share the
+ *   same period.
+ * - If both duty and period are set to 0, the output is a constant low signal
+ *   if polarity is normal or a constant high signal if polarity is inversed.
+ * - When disabled the output is driven to 0 if polarity is normal, or to 1
+ *   if polarity is inversed.
+ * - Disabling the PWM stops the output immediately, without waiting for current
+ *   period to complete first.
+ * - Channels are phase-capable, but on RPi5, the firmware can use a channel
+ *   phase register to report the RPM of the fan connected to that PWM
+ *   channel. As a result, phase control will be ignored for now.
