[PATCH 1/2] drm/rockchip: vop: clear DMA stop bit on flush on RK3066

[PATCH 1/2] drm/rockchip: vop: clear DMA stop bit on flush on RK3066

[Val Packett]

On the RK3066, there is a bit that must be cleared on flush, otherwise
we do not get display output (at least for RGB).

Hi! This was required to get display working on an old RK3066 tablet,
along with the next tiny patch in the series enabling the RGB output.

I have spent quite a lot of time banging my head against the wall debugging
that display (especially since at the same time a scaler chip is used for
LVDS encoding), but finally adding debug prints showed that RK3066_SYS_CTRL0
ended up being reset to all-zero after being written correctly upon init.
Looking at the register definitions in the vendor driver revealed that the
reason was pretty self-explanatory: "dma_stop".

Maybe the DRM subsystem has more lax rules, but I know I can't take
patches without any changelog text at all, sorry.

I guess: f4a6de855e "drm: rockchip: vop: add rk3066 vop definitions" ?

But similar changes like:
742203cd "drm: rockchip: add missing registers for RK3066"
8d544233 "drm/rockchip: vop: Add directly output rgb feature for px30"
did not have any "Fixes" reference.

Great, can you add a Fixes: tag when you resend these?

Just because people didn't properly tag things in the past, doesn't mean
you should perpetuate that problem :)

can you give a rationale for this please?

I.e. does this dma-stop bit need to be set on each vblank that happens
to push this frame to the display somehow?

Because at least in theory atomic_flush where this was living in in v1,
might happen at a slower interval?


Thanks
Heiko

The only things I'm 100% sure about:

- that bit is called dma_stop in the Android kernel's header;
- without ever setting that bit to 1, it was getting set to 1 by the 
chip itself, as logging the register on flush was showing a 1 in that 
position (it was the only set bit - I guess others aren't readable 
after cfg_done?);
- without clearing it "between" frames, the whole screen is always 
filled with noise, the picture is not visible.

The rest is at least a bit (ha) speculative:

As I understand from what the name implies, the hardware sets it to 
indicate that it has scanned out the frame and is waiting for 
acknowledgment (clearing) to be able to scan out the next frame. I 
guess it's a redundant synchronization mechanism that was removed in 
later iterations of the VOP hardware block.

I've been trying to see if moving where I clear the bit affects the 
sort-of-tearing-but-vertical glitches that sometimes happen, especially 
early on after the system has just booted, but that seems to be 
completely unrelated pixel clock craziness (the Android kernel runs the 
screen at 66 fps, interestingly).

I'm fairly confident that both places are "correct". The reason I'm 
more on the side of vblank now is that it made logical sense to me when 
I thought about it more: acknowledging that the frame has been scanned 
out is a reaction to the frame having been scanned out. It's a 
consequence of *that* that the acknowledgment is required for the next 
frame to be drawn.

Unless we can get the opinion of someone closely familiar with this 
decade-old hardware, we only have this reasoning to go off of :)

Actually that reasoning was exactly what I was hoping for :-) .
And it actually also makes perfect sense.

I was somehow thinking this needs to be set only when starting output
and not as sort of an Ack.

Could you do a v3 with:
- the findings from above slightly condensed in the commit message
  It's really helpful when someone stumbles onto that commit 10 years
  from now and can get this really helpful explanation from the commit
  message.
- sending it as a _new_ thread
  Having v2 as reply to v1 patches confuses tooling that then can't
  distinguish what is actually part of this v2


Thanks a lot
Heiko
