Ok. The first argument to clk_get() really shouldn't be NULL. It should be the device pointer for the device that is associated with the clk you want to get. The clock name (second argument to clk_get()) should be device specific and not some globally unique identifier. It seems that you're using the clk_get() API incorrectly. -- Qualcomm Innovation Center, Inc. is a member of Code Aurora Forum, a Linux Foundation Collaborative Project
