1. External 32kHz crystal is started for too long or it may not start at all. It is often observed at the first start.
2. At the first start, it is possible that the crystal did not start. And the recorded period was recorded as 0. Which led to a division error by zero during the transition to the deep sleep mode (Maybe somewhere else).
3. Added a unit test to test a new method of oscillation an external crystal.
4. Added a new method of oscillating of an external crystal. The legs of the crystal are fed with a 32 kHz frequency.
The new method eliminates these errors.
Added unit test: `\esp-idf\components\soc\esp32\test\test_rtc_clk.c`: `make TEST_COMPONENTS=soc`
- 8 Test starting external RTC crystal. Will pass.
`Bootstrap cycles for external 32kHz crystal` - is specified in the file Kconfig by default 100.
QA tested a new method of oscillation the crystal on 25 boards. The supply of square waves on the crystal showed a 100% result in contrast to the previous method of launching the crystal. After the tests, the old method was deleted.

The fast path of CPU frequency switch function, used in DFS, was not
waiting for the frequency switch to complete when switching from XTAL
to PLL. This resulted in incorrect reads from peripherals on APB,
where two consecutive reads could return the same value. For example,
in esp_timer, read of FRC_COUNT_REG would return same value as the
preceding read of FRC_ALARM_REG, causing time to jump by the value of
FRC_ALARM_REG / apb_freq_mhz.
RTC_FAST_CLK_FREQ_APPROX is defined as 8500000, so 0.5MHz part was lost
when dividing by MHZ. Since cal_val is 64-bit the parens can be removed.
With 40MHz XTAL for a nominal ESP32 chip, this fixes estimated XTAL
frequency from 38 to 40MHz.
To achieve reliable operation with GD flash at 80MHz, need to raise
core voltage.
This causes the following current consumption increase:
At 80MHz: from 29mA to 33mA
At 160MHz: from 41mA to 47mA
Test conditions: 2 cores running code from IRAM, remaining peripherals
clock gated.
1. Make sure that 8MD256 clock used to estimate XTAL frequency is enabled
before trying to use rtc_clk_cal_ratio.
This fixes "Bogus XTAL frequency: 0 MHz" warnings after software reset.
2. Don't call rtc_clk_xtal_freq_estimate if XTAL frequency is already
known. This reduces startup time after deep sleep or software reset.
3. Compare known XTAL frequency and estimated one before printing a
warning. This fixes "Possibly invalid CONFIG_ESP32_XTAL_FREQ setting
(40MHz). Detected 40 MHz." warnings.
Previous implementation waited for 20us after setting
RTC_CNTL_SOC_CLK_SEL_XTL register, using ets_delay_us, assuming that
the CPU was running at XTAL frequency. In reality, clock switch happened
on the next RTC_SLOW_CLK cycle, and CPU could be running at the previous
frequency (for example, 240 MHz) until then.
ets_delay_us would wait for 20 us * 40 cycles per us = 800 CPU cycles
(assuming 40 MHz XTAL; even less with a 26 MHz XTAL).
But if CPU was running at 240 MHz, 800 cycles would pass in just 3.3us,
while SLOW_CLK cycle could happen as much as 1/150kHz = 6.7us after
RTC_CNTL_SOC_CLK_SEL_XTL was set. So the software would not actually wait
long enough for the clock switch to happen, and would disable the PLL
while CPU was still clocked from PLL, leading to a halt.
This implementation uses rtc_clk_wait_for_slow_cycle() function to wait
until the clock switch, removing the need to wait for a fixed number of
CPU cycles.
Since 9a8c0392, XTAL frequency is set to 40MHz by default, and users
of 26MHz boards need to select 26MHz manually. Most users are not aware
of this change, and existing getting started guides do not mention that
XTAL frequency needs to be set for some boards. So users are left with
garbage output from UART without any clue what to check.
This change adds a warning in case specific XTAL frequency was set, and
it does not match automatically detected one. This should help users
fix the issue.
1. When dual core cpu run access DPORT register, must do protection.
2. If access DPORT register, must use DPORT_REG_READ/DPORT_REG_WRITE and DPORT_XXX register operation macro.
- RTC_CNTL_SLOWCLK_FREQ define is removed; rtc_clk_slow_freq_get_hz
function can be used instead to get an approximate RTC_SLOW_CLK
frequency
- Clock calibration is performed at startup. The value is saved and used
for timekeeping and when entering deep sleep.
- When using the 32k XTAL, startup code will wait for the oscillator to
start up. This can be possibly optimized by starting a separate task
to wait for oscillator startup, and performing clock switch in that
task.
- Fix a bug that 32k XTAL would be disabled in rtc_clk_init.
- Fix a rounding error in rtc_clk_cal, which caused systematic frequency
error.
- Fix an overflow bug which caused rtc_clk_cal to timeout early if the
slow_clk_cycles argument would exceed certain value
- Improve 32k XTAL oscillator startup time by introducing bootstrapping
code, which uses internal pullup/pulldown resistors on 32K_N/32K_P
pins to set better initial conditions for the oscillator.
ROM code already implements XTAL frequency detection, but it uses the 8M
clock before the clock tuning parameters are initialized. With the
zero clock tuning parameter, 8M clock has significant frequency deviation
at high temperatures, which can lead to erroneous detection of 40 MHz
crystal as a 26 MHz one.
This change adds XTAL frequency detection code to rtc_clk_init routine,
and detection is performed after the 8M clock tuning parameter as been
initialized.
On first reset, ROM code writes the estimated XTAL frequency into
RTC_APB_FREQ_REG (aka STORE5). If the application doesn’t specify exact
XTAL frequency (which is always the case for now), rtc_clk_init will
guess what kind of XTAL is used (26M or 40M), based on the estimated
frequency. Later, detected frequency is written into RTC_XTAL_FREQ_REG
(aka STORE4).
When the application switches clock source to PLL, APB frequency changes
and RTC_APB_FREQ_REG is updated. If the application encounters an RTC
WDT reset, RTC_APB_FREQ_REG will not be updated prior to reset. Once the
application starts up again, it will attempt to auto-detect XTAL
frequency based on RTC_APB_FREQ_REG, which now has value of 80000000.
This will fail, and rtc_clk_xtal_freq_estimate will fall back to the
default value of 26 MHz. Due to an incorrect XTAL frequency, PLL
initialization will also take incorrect path, and PLL will run at a
different frequency. Depending on the application this may cause just
garbage output on UART or a crash (if WiFi is used).
