The currently listed dotclock disagrees with the currently
listed vrefresh rate. Change the dotclock to match the vrefresh.

Someone tell me which (if either) of the dotclock or vreresh is
correct?

Hi,

This is a command mode panel and the the msm/mdp5 driver uses the 
vrefresh field for the actual refresh rate, while the dotclock field is 
used for the DSI clocks. The dotclock needed to be a bit higher than 
necessary otherwise the panel would not work.

If you want to get rid of the separate clock/vrefresh fields there would 
need to be some changes to msm driver.

(note I hadn't made the patch with upstreaming in mind, the 150000 value 
is likely not optimal, just something that worked, this is something 
that should have been checked with the downstream driver)

Is this the right clock frequency in the downstream MSM 3.4 kernel that
you're talking about?

https://github.com/AICP/kernel_lge_hammerhead/blob/n7.1/arch/arm/mach-msm/clock-8974.c#L3326

I don't see any obvious clock values in the downstream command mode
panel configuration: 

https://github.com/AICP/kernel_lge_hammerhead/blob/n7.1/arch/arm/boot/dts/msm8974-hammerhead/msm8974-hammerhead-panel.dtsi#L591

Anyways, I tried Ville's patch with the framebuffer, kmscube, and X11
and everything appears to be working fine. You can add my Tested-by if
you end up applying this.

No, I'm talking about the DSI clock (the driver for it is in 
drm/msm/dsi/). For a command mode panel the front/back porches aren't 
relevant, but the dsi pixel/byte clock need to be a bit higher than 
1920x1080x60. Since 125498 is a little higher than 124416 that might be 
enough (there is also rounding of the clock values to consider).

Another thing: did you verify that the panel still runs at 60hz (and not 
dropping frames to 30hz)? IIRC that was the behavior with lower clock.

Yes, the panel is running at 60 HZ according to the Xorg log with
Ville's patch applied:

    modeset(0): Modeline "1080x1920"x60.0  125.50  1080 1082 1084 1086
    1920 1922 1924 1926 (115.6 kHz eP)

I verified there's no underflow errors in dmesg.

If I recall correctly, the clock speeds that was in your tree was set
too low for the gpu_opp_table (that wouldn't cause this issue), but I
seem to recall there were some other clock speed mismatches. The
bandwidth requests weren't set on the RPM as well, so maybe that
contributed to the problem. That's done upstream with the msm8974
interconnect driver:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/interconnect/qcom/msm8974.c

There's a separate known issue with 'pp done time out' errors that
occur on the framebuffer that started upstream several months ago with
the introduction of async commit support in the MSM driver. I tried
working around this by enabling the autorefresh feature but it's not
fully working yet and I hit a dead end since there's no docs available
publicly for this. The grim details are at:

https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20191230020053.26016-2-masneyb@onstation.org/

So I'm still OK with Ville's patch going in.

Brian

What Xorg prints doesn't mean anything. I don't think there will be 
errors in dmesg, you need to run something that does pageflips as fast 
as possible and see that the refresh rate is still 60. (modetest with 
-v, glmark-drm are examples)

I assume that you mean modetest from
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/drm/tree/master/tests/modetest ?
Here's the modeset connector information:

  flags: ; type: preferred, driver

And the page flip results...

$ modetest -v -s 32:1080x1920
trying to open device 'msm'...done
setting mode 1080x1920-71.71Hz@XR24 on connectors 32, crtc 50
failed to set gamma: Function not implemented

It's the same results with and without Ville's patch.

Here's the beginning of the glmark2 results with the x11-gl flavor:

modetest should be printing "freq: 60.0Hz", so definitely something 
wrong there. Though I guess you have another problem since I would 
expect the patch to drop it to 30 and not 13.5.

(FYI glmark-x11 isn't vsynced which is why I specifically mentioned 
glmark-drm)

I tried compiling the drm variant and it was complaining about some
missing dependencies that I didn't see in Alpine Linux. I didn't try too
hard since I'm a bit short on time at this point since I'm starting a
new job on Monday and I have another side project that I want to finish
before then.

I suspect that the issue is caused by the introduction of the async
commit support in the MSM driver that introduced the ping/pong timeouts.
I'll try in a few weeks or so reverting those patches and see if that
affects the speed.

I'm still ok with Ville's patch going in given the existing slow state.
There's no clear path forward right now for the autocommit patch that I
linked to earlier in this thread. :(

If I have time to kill over the weekend I'll do a new rebase of my Nexus 
5 patches (my last rebase was back in August on 5.2, and the panel was 
working correctly at 60Hz back then).

Looked at it again and it does look like your glmark was vsynced (glmark 
explicitly disables vsync so I guess you have it force-enabled) since 
the results are all 26-27 (X works a bit differently and gets double the 
framerate somehow?)

I don't know if this predates the support for defining DSI clocks
but for what we have in the kernel right now this is wrong.

struct mipi_dsi_device contains:

 * @hs_rate: maximum lane frequency for high speed mode in hertz, this should
 * be set to the real limits of the hardware, zero is only accepted for
 * legacy drivers
 * @lp_rate: maximum lane frequency for low power mode in hertz, this should
 * be set to the real limits of the hardware, zero is only accepted for
 * legacy drivers

The MDP driver should use these frequencies for a DSI command
mode panel, and the panel driver should define them.

These two clocks are/can be/should be completely orthogonal to
the dotclock/pixelclock inside the panel, which is likely driven from
its own crystal directly from the panel-internal framebuffer.

Linus Walleij

That would be great if you have time to look at the panel. My
out-of-tree patches for this phone are at
https://github.com/masneyb/linux/commits/v5.5-nexus5.
A high-level description of those patches are on the cover letter:
https://github.com/masneyb/nexus-5-upstream/blob/master/out-of-tree-patches/upstream-patches/v5.5/0000-cover-letter.patch

A description of what works and what I've done upstream for this device
is described at:
https://masneyb.github.io/nexus-5-upstream/

So I reverted the following three commits related to the async commit
support in the MSM driver:

    d934a712c5e6 ("drm/msm: add atomic traces")
    2d99ced787e3 ("drm/msm: async commit support")
    194fc68d7a49 ("drm/msm/dpu: async commit support")

The modetest results now look much better:

# With existing 150000 clock rate on the panel
$ modetest -v -s 32:1080x19
setting mode 1080x1920-71.71Hz@XR24 on connectors 32, crtc 50
failed to set gamma: Function not implemented
freq: 59.40Hz
freq: 59.69Hz
freq: 59.69Hz
...

With Ville's patch the frequency drops slightly.

# With 125498 clock rate on the panel
$ modetest -v -s 32:1080x19
freq: 55.44Hz
freq: 55.09Hz
freq: 55.88Hz
...

The msm DSI driver does predate the addition of those fields and doesn't 
use them at all.

Seems like it would be a bit of a hack too, since the frequency we want 
to use is not the "real limits of the hardware"..

I think it would be benficient to switch to these fields, because then
the .clock field (dot/pixelclock) is not abused to contain what I guess
is the desires hs_rate.

That just means "clock it as high as the panel can take".

Normally that would come from the vendor datasheet of
the panel.

If you don't have the datasheet, whatever you use in the vendor
tree is fine, I suppose what is currently in .clock is fine.
