Subject: [PATCH v2 03/20] drm/tilcdc: Remove simulate_vesa_sync flag
Date: Thu, 11 Dec 2025 17:38:47 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251211-feature_tilcdc-v2-3-f48bac3cd33e@bootlin.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251211-feature_tilcdc-v2-0-f48bac3cd33e@bootlin.com>
The tilcdc hardware does not generate VESA-compliant sync signals. It
aligns the vertical sync (VS) on the second edge of the horizontal sync
(HS) instead of the first edge. To compensate for this hardware
behavior, the driver applies a timing adjustment in mode_fixup().
Previously, this adjustment was conditional based on the simulate_vesa_sync
flag, which was only set when using external encoders. This appears
problematic because:
1. The timing adjustment seems needed for the hardware behavior regardless
of whether an external encoder is used
2. The external encoder infrastructure is driver-specific and being
removed due to design issues
3. Boards using tilcdc without bridges (e.g., am335x-evm, am335x-evmsk)
may not be getting the necessary timing adjustments
Remove the simulate_vesa_sync flag and apply the VESA sync timing
adjustment unconditionally, ensuring consistent behavior across all
configurations. While it's unclear if the previous conditional behavior
was causing actual issues, the unconditional adjustment better reflects
the hardware's characteristics.

Only few board currently use tilcdc not associated to a bridge like the
am335x_evm or the am335x-evmsk.
