jtag_khz and jtag_rclk require that the interface driver has the khz and the speed_div functions. The parport driver currently lacks them. > The idea here is: "jtag_khz 1000" - should mean no faster then 1mhz > There is no "min-freq" requirement, and to do so would be wrong. Correct. > Or am I missing something, ie: we *MUST* have a minimum frequency. No, there is no requirement for a minimum frequency setting. I am not sure what made you think that I required this.

(timing in the first sentence refers to the automatic parport toggle speed detection) The problem with a speed much lower than the requested is that it hurt the performance badly. The parport interfaces will operate at a much lower speed than they are capable of and the user will not be aware of this.
