Shifted framebuffer after X11 starts on mx28

Shifted framebuffer after X11 starts on mx28

[Fabio Estevam]

Hi,

I am running 3.8.2 kernel on a mx28evk and when I start X11 I get a
"shifted" framebuffer.

The framebuffer works well if X11 is not called.

There is no issue with X11 when running with Freescale  2.6.35 kernel.

Looking at drivers/video/mxsfb.c there is the following comment:

	/*
	 * It seems, you can't re-program the controller if it is still running.
	 * This may lead into shifted pictures (FIFO issue?).
	 * So, first stop the controller and drain its FIFOs
	 */

So, it looks like that I am still facing this issue when X11 starts.

If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know.

Thanks,

Fabio Estevam

This is not it, I almost hunted the bug down. Hang on.

Basically check mxsfb_set_par() and observe fb_info->var.sync . It's set to 
"something" during regular framebuffer operation and it's set to "something 
else" during Xorg operation. And that's what causes it to get broken. I forced 
fb_info->var.sync to the "something" value by hardcoding it in kernel just now 
for a quick test and X works for me.

Uh, being in hacking-mode and replying to email doesn't work well together :-)

In my case, fb_info->var.sync is set to FB_SYNC_DATA_ENABLE_HIGH_ACT during 
regular operation (framebuffer console), but if X11 starts, this fb_info-
>var.sync is forced to value 0 which causes the malfunction. Now back into 
hacking-mode ;-)

[PATCH] ARM: video: mxs: Fix mxsfb misconfiguring VDCTRL0

[Marek Vasut]

The issue fixed by this patch manifests only then using X11
with mxsfb driver. The X11 will display either shifted image
or otherwise distorted image on the LCD.

The problem is that the X11 tries to reconfigure the framebuffer
and along the way call fb_ops.fb_set_par() with it's configuration
values. The field of particular interest is fb_info->var.sync which
contains non-standard values if configured by kernel. These are
FB_SYNC_DATA_ENABLE_HIGH_ACT and FB_SYNC_DOTCLK_FAILING_ACT defined
in include/linux/mxsfb.h . The driver interprets those and configures
the LCD controller accordingly. Yet X11 only has access to standard
values for this field defined in include/uapi/linux/fb.h and thus
omits these special values. This results in distorted image on the
LCD.

This patch moves these non-standard values into new field of the
mxsfb_platform_data structure so the driver can in turn check this
field instead of the video mode field for these specific portions.

[PATCH] ARM: video: mxs: Fix mxsfb misconfiguring VDCTRL0

[Marek Vasut]

The issue fixed by this patch manifests only then using X11
with mxsfb driver. The X11 will display either shifted image
or otherwise distorted image on the LCD.

The problem is that the X11 tries to reconfigure the framebuffer
and along the way calls fb_ops.fb_set_par() with X11's desired
configuration values. The field of particular interest is
fb_info->var.sync which contains non-standard values if
configured by kernel. These are either FB_SYNC_DATA_ENABLE_HIGH_ACT,
FB_SYNC_DOTCLK_FAILING_ACT or both, depending on the platform
configuration. Both of these values are defined in the
include/linux/mxsfb.h file.

The driver interprets these values and configures the LCD controller
accordingly. Yet X11 only has access to the standard values for this
field defined in include/uapi/linux/fb.h and thus, unlike kernel,
omits these special values. This results in distorted image on the
LCD.

This patch moves these non-standard values into new field of the
mxsfb_platform_data structure so the driver can in turn check this
field instead of the video mode field for these specific portions.

Moreover, this patch prefixes these values with MXSFB_SYNC_ prefix
instead of FB_SYNC_ prefix to prevent confusion of subsequent users.

[Marek Vasut]

The issue fixed by this patch manifests only then using X11
with mxsfb driver. The X11 will display either shifted image
or otherwise distorted image on the LCD.

The problem is that the X11 tries to reconfigure the framebuffer
and along the way calls fb_ops.fb_set_par() with X11's desired
configuration values. The field of particular interest is
fb_info->var.sync which contains non-standard values if
configured by kernel. These are either FB_SYNC_DATA_ENABLE_HIGH_ACT,
FB_SYNC_DOTCLK_FAILING_ACT or both, depending on the platform
configuration. Both of these values are defined in the
include/linux/mxsfb.h file.

The driver interprets these values and configures the LCD controller
accordingly. Yet X11 only has access to the standard values for this
field defined in include/uapi/linux/fb.h and thus, unlike kernel,
omits these special values. This results in distorted image on the
LCD.

This patch moves these non-standard values into new field of the
mxsfb_platform_data structure so the driver can in turn check this
field instead of the video mode field for these specific portions.

Moreover, this patch prefixes these values with MXSFB_SYNC_ prefix
instead of FB_SYNC_ prefix to prevent confusion of subsequent users.

I'm somewhat sure I violated a few (see below), I won't argue there as you 
surely are much more experienced, but let me dissect the rules so I can learn 
which one to be careful about. Please help me if I did not understand something 
properly.

 - It must be obviously correct and tested.
YES, Fabio tested it on MX28EVK, me on M28EVK (two different devices)

 - It cannot be bigger than 100 lines, with context.
NO, but I see no way to compress it under 100 lines.

 - It must fix only one thing.
YES, it fixes broken X11 on MX28

 - It must fix a real bug that bothers people (not a, "This could be a
   problem..." type thing).
YES, it fixes broken X11 on MX28

 - It must fix a problem that causes a build error (but not for things
   marked CONFIG_BROKEN), an oops, a hang, data corruption, a real
   security issue, or some "oh, that's not good" issue.  In short, something
   critical.
YES, it fixes broken X11 on MX28

 - Serious issues as reported by a user of a distribution kernel may also
   be considered if they fix a notable performance or interactivity issue.
   As these fixes are not as obvious and have a higher risk of a subtle
   regression they should only be submitted by a distribution kernel
   maintainer and include an addendum linking to a bugzilla entry if it 
   exists and additional information on the user-visible impact.
This doesn't apply I guess?

 - New device IDs and quirks are also accepted.
This doesn't apply for sure.

 - No "theoretical race condition" issues, unless an explanation of how the
   race can be exploited is also provided.
This doesn't apply for sure.

 - It cannot contain any "trivial" fixes in it (spelling changes,
   whitespace cleanups, etc).
This doesn't apply for sure.

 - It must follow the Documentation/SubmittingPatches rules.
I believe it does. It has one checkpatch warning, but to keep the amount of 
changes to bare minimum, I left it in there.

 - It or an equivalent fix must already exist in Linus' tree (upstream).
This can not happen, the fix in Linus' tree will have to be different since in 
v3.9 there is one more MX28 platform which also needs fixing. I suppose I will 
now wait for Shawn to merge the patch for 3.9-rc, get it mainline and then this 
one can be merged?

Thank you!

[PATCH] ARM: video: mxs: Fix mxsfb misconfiguring VDCTRL0

[Marek Vasut]

The issue fixed by this patch manifests only then using X11
with mxsfb driver. The X11 will display either shifted image
or otherwise distorted image on the LCD.

The problem is that the X11 tries to reconfigure the framebuffer
and along the way calls fb_ops.fb_set_par() with X11's desired
configuration values. The field of particular interest is
fb_info->var.sync which contains non-standard values if
configured by kernel. These are either FB_SYNC_DATA_ENABLE_HIGH_ACT,
FB_SYNC_DOTCLK_FAILING_ACT or both, depending on the platform
configuration. Both of these values are defined in the
include/linux/mxsfb.h file.

The driver interprets these values and configures the LCD controller
accordingly. Yet X11 only has access to the standard values for this
field defined in include/uapi/linux/fb.h and thus, unlike kernel,
omits these special values. This results in distorted image on the
LCD.

This patch moves these non-standard values into new field of the
mxsfb_platform_data structure so the driver can in turn check this
field instead of the video mode field for these specific portions.

Moreover, this patch prefixes these values with MXSFB_SYNC_ prefix
instead of FB_SYNC_ prefix to prevent confusion of subsequent users.

[PATCH] ARM: video: mxs: Fix mxsfb misconfiguring VDCTRL0

[Marek Vasut]

The issue fixed by this patch manifests only then using X11
with mxsfb driver. The X11 will display either shifted image
or otherwise distorted image on the LCD.

The problem is that the X11 tries to reconfigure the framebuffer
and along the way calls fb_ops.fb_set_par() with X11's desired
configuration values. The field of particular interest is
fb_info->var.sync which contains non-standard values if
configured by kernel. These are either FB_SYNC_DATA_ENABLE_HIGH_ACT,
FB_SYNC_DOTCLK_FAILING_ACT or both, depending on the platform
configuration. Both of these values are defined in the
include/linux/mxsfb.h file.

The driver interprets these values and configures the LCD controller
accordingly. Yet X11 only has access to the standard values for this
field defined in include/uapi/linux/fb.h and thus, unlike kernel,
omits these special values. This results in distorted image on the
LCD.

This patch moves these non-standard values into new field of the
mxsfb_platform_data structure so the driver can in turn check this
field instead of the video mode field for these specific portions.

Moreover, this patch prefixes these values with MXSFB_SYNC_ prefix
instead of FB_SYNC_ prefix to prevent confusion of subsequent users.

Shawn, I think this patch applies to 3.9-rc but there's one more platform in 
mach-mxs.c in 3.9-rc thus this will have compile issue. Just renaming those two 
FB_SYNC_ values to MXSFB_SYNC_ fixes the compile issue on 3.9-rc. Also the 
commit log doesn't look all that cool .... I probably should have marked the 
patch as RFC.

Shall I send you one for 3.9-rc and one for stable maybe ?

Yeah, improved patch is welcomed.  So I'm dropping the current one and
