You can use the pfdena, areset, and locked signals to observe and control the PLL
operation and resynchronization.

User
The clock switchover feature allows the PLL to switch between two reference input
clocks. Use this feature for clock redundancy or for a dual-clock domain application,
such as a system that turns on the redundant clock if the previous clock stops running.
Your design can automatically perform clock switchover when the clock is no longer
toggling, or based on the user control signal, clkswitch.
Automatic Clock Switchover
PLLs of Cyclone IV devices support a fully configurable clock switchover capability.
When the current reference clock is not present, the clock-sense block automatically
switches to the backup clock for PLL reference. The clock switchover circuit also sends
out three status signals—clkbad0, clkbad1, and activeclock—from the PLL to
implement a custom switchover circuit. You can select a clock source at the backup
clock by connecting it to the inclk1 port of the PLL in your design.
