Hi Jagan and others

I'm trying to test this series on our imx8mp-based boards, which has the
mipi-dsi connected to a ti,sn65dsi86 bridge (in turn connected to a
full-size DP-connector). But I don't know how to add the proper nodes to
imx8mp.dtsi. My current, obviously incomplete, attempt is

	mipi_dsi: dsi@32e60000 {
		compatible = "fsl,imx8mp-mipi-dsim";
		reg = <0x32e60000 0x400>;
		clocks = <&clk IMX8MP_CLK_MEDIA_APB_ROOT>,
			 <&clk IMX8MP_CLK_MEDIA_MIPI_PHY1_REF>;
		clock-names = "bus_clk", "sclk_mipi";

		/* assigned-clocks = <&clk IMX8MM_CLK_DSI_CORE>, */
		/* 		  <&clk IMX8MM_VIDEO_PLL1_OUT>, */
		/* 		  <&clk IMX8MM_CLK_DSI_PHY_REF>; */
		/* assigned-clock-parents = <&clk IMX8MM_SYS_PLL1_266M>, */
		/* 			 <&clk IMX8MM_VIDEO_PLL1_BYPASS>, */
		/* 			 <&clk IMX8MM_VIDEO_PLL1_OUT>; */
		/* assigned-clock-rates = <266000000>, <594000000>, <27000000>; */

		interrupts = <GIC_SPI 18 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;
		power-domains = <&media_blk_ctrl IMX8MP_MEDIABLK_PD_MIPI_DSI_1>;
		samsung,burst-clock-frequency = <891000000>;
		samsung,esc-clock-frequency = <54000000>;
		samsung,pll-clock-frequency = <27000000>;
		status = "disabled";

		ports {
			#address-cells = <1>;
			#size-cells = <0>;

			port@0 {
				reg = <0>;
				#address-cells = <1>;
				#size-cells = <0>;

				dsi_in_lcdif: endpoint@0 {
					reg = <0>;
					remote-endpoint = <&lcdif_out_dsi>;
				};
			};

			port@1 {
				reg = <1>;
			};
		};
	};

	lcdif1: display-controller@32e80000 {
		compatible = "fsl,imx8mp-lcdif";
		reg = <0x32e80000 0x238>;
		interrupts = <GIC_SPI 5 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;
		clocks = <&clk IMX8MP_CLK_MEDIA_DISP1_PIX_ROOT>,
			 <&clk IMX8MP_CLK_MEDIA_AXI_ROOT>,
			 <&clk IMX8MP_CLK_MEDIA_APB_ROOT>;
		clock-names = "pix", "axi", "disp_axi";
		assigned-clocks = <&clk IMX8MP_CLK_MEDIA_DISP1_PIX>,
				  <&clk IMX8MP_VIDEO_PLL1>;
		assigned-clock-parents = <&clk IMX8MP_VIDEO_PLL1_OUT>,
					 <&clk IMX8MP_VIDEO_PLL1_REF_SEL>;
		assigned-clock-rates = <0>, <1039500000>;
		power-domains = <&media_blk_ctrl IMX8MP_MEDIABLK_PD_LCDIF_1>;
		status = "disabled";

		port {
			lcdif_out_dsi: endpoint {
				remote-endpoint = <&dsi_in_lcdif>;
			};
		};
	};

The lcdif1 node is based on
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-kernel/20221208090842.2869374-1-alexander.stein@ew.tq-group.com/
, which is now in next-20230127 as commit 94e6197dadc9. I know that one
works because one of our boards has an lvds display, but I don't know if
I've done the appropriate changes when copying the lcdif2 node to
lcdif1. And I'm even more at a loss when trying to fill out the mipi_dsi
node; I've tried doing some surgery of the one in imx8mm.dtsi with the
one from the NXP 5.15.32 kernel, but it's obviously not finished, and
I'm out of ideas.

Thanks,
Rasmus

Thanks, but that's exactly what I'm doing, and I don't see any
modification of imx8mp.dtsi in that branch. I'm basically looking for
help to do the equivalent of

  88775338cd58 - arm64: dts: imx8mm: Add MIPI DSI pipeline
  f964f67dd6ee - arm64: dts: imx8mm: Add eLCDIF node support

for imx8mp in order to test those patches on our boards (we have two
variants).

Thanks. I removed the lcdif2 and ldb nodes I had added from Alexander's
patch (94e6197dadc9 in linux-next) in order to apply it. I get a couple
of errors during boot:

  clk: /soc@0/bus@32c00000/mipi_dsi@32e60000: failed to reparent
media_apb to sys_pll1_266m: -22

and enabling a pr_debug in clk_core_set_parent_nolock() shows that this
is because

  clk_core_set_parent_nolock: clk sys_pll1_266m can not be parent of clk
media_apb

Further, the mipi_dsi fails to probe due to

  /soc@0/bus@32c00000/mipi_dsi@32e60000: failed to get
'samsung,burst-clock-frequency' property

All other .dtsi files seem to have those samsung,burst-clock-frequency
and samsung,esc-clock-frequency properties, so I suppose those should
also go into the imx8mp.dtsi and are not something that the board .dts
file should supply(?).


[There's also some differences between your patch and Alexander's
regarding the lcdif2 and ldb nodes, so while my lvds display still sorta
works, I get

  fsl-ldb 32ec0000.blk-ctrl:lvds-ldb: Configured LDB clock (297000000
Hz) does not match requested LVDS clock: 346500000 Hz

and the image is oddly distorted/shifted. But I suppose that's
orthogonal to getting the lcdif1 -> mipi-dsi -> ... pipeline working.]

It seems my patch indicates exactly what's your problem here. Your clock rate 
configuration for LCDIF2 and LDB are not compatible (ratio 1:7). For now 
manual clock config is necessary in this case.
Check the clock tree in debugfs how your root clocks are configured and if it 
affects lcdif1 and lcdif2.

Best regards
Alexander

I have tested this series (again) on Kontron DL i.MX8MM (= Kontron BL
i.MX8MM + 7" LVDS display connected through SN65DSI84 bridge).

No, that samsung,esc-clock-frequency (should be some 10-20 MHz, based on 
your panel/bridge) and samsung,burst-clock-frequency (that's the HS 
clock) should go into board DT, as those are property of the attached 
panel/bridge.

Alexander is right in the reply below, you have to configure the LVDS 
serializer clock in DT and they must match LCDIF2 pixel clock which are 
also configured in DT then, else you won't get the correct LVDS clock.

OK.

But I simply can't make that match what I see in that branch. For
example, there's imx8mm-icore-mx8mm-ctouch2-of10.dts and
imx8mm-icore-mx8mm-edimm2.2.dts which both seem to have a ti,sn65dsi84
bridge, neither override the values defined in imx8mm.dtsi, which are

        samsung,burst-clock-frequency = <891000000>;
        samsung,esc-clock-frequency = <54000000>;

and that 891MHz value seems to be out of range for the dsi84 bridge -
under Recommended Operating Conditions, the data sheet says "DSI HS
clock input frequency", min 40, max 500 MHz.

There's also the "clk sys_pll1_266m can not be parent of clk media_apb".
Are you sure about those assigned-clocks and assigned-clock-parents
settings?

Please note that the value in samsung,burst-clock-frequency is double
the clock rate of the effective DSI HS clock. I can confirm that a
SN65DSI84 is able to work with the default settings in general. Still
the LVDS clock is derived from the DSI clock and the sn65dsi83 driver
calculates its PLL values expecting a DSI input clock matching the panel
mode. So you might have to tune this value.

Hm, but in my case, I don't have a DSI->LVDS bridge, but a
DSI->DisplayPort bridge (sn65dsi86), and I obviously don't and can't
know what monitor(s) will be attached at run-time.

I managed to get the whole chain lcdif -> mipi -> bridge -> dp-connector
to probe with these settings

	display_port0: connector {
		compatible = "dp-connector";
		label = "DP0";
		type = "full-size";
		dp-pwr-supply = <&reg_DP_PWR>;

		port {
			dp_connector_in: endpoint {
				remote-endpoint = <&sn65dsi86_out>;
			};
		};
       };

	eDP: bridge@2c {
		compatible = "ti,sn65dsi86";
		reg = <0x2c>;
		pinctrl-names = "default";
		pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_eDP>;

		interrupts-extended = <&gpio3 14 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;
		enable-gpios = <&gpio3 9 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;

		vpll-supply = <&VDD_1V8>;
		vccio-supply = <&VDD_1V8>;
		vcca-supply = <&reg_1V2>;
		vcc-supply = <&reg_1V2>;

		clocks = <&clk_38_4MHz>;
		clock-names = "refclk";

		#pwm-cells = <1>;

		ports {
			#address-cells = <1>;
			#size-cells = <0>;

			port@0 {
				reg = <0>;
				sn65dsi86_in_a: endpoint {
					remote-endpoint = <&mipi_dsi_out>;
				};
			};

			port@1 {
				reg = <1>;
				sn65dsi86_out: endpoint {
					remote-endpoint = <&dp_connector_in>;
				};
			};
		};
	};

&mipi_dsi {
       status = "okay";
       samsung,burst-clock-frequency = <816000000>;
       samsung,esc-clock-frequency = <60000000>;

       ports {
	       port@1 {
		       reg = <1>;

		       mipi_dsi_out: endpoint {
			       remote-endpoint = <&sn65dsi86_in_a>;
		       };
	       };
       };
};

&lcdif1 {
	status = "okay";
};

Now hotplug-detect doesn't work with the current sn65dsi86 driver, but
that's a separate issue; when I boot with a monitor attached, its edid
is correctly read out. But I still don't get any output, and the monitor
says "no signal" - my naive attempt (which has worked fine in other
cases) was to just dd /dev/urandom to /dev/fb0, so I'm clearly missing
some important step.

You could try and tweak the DSI mode flags in 
drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/ti-sn65dsi86.c to operate in DSI burst mode 
MIPI_DSI_MODE_VIDEO_BURST instead of MIPI_DSI_MODE_VIDEO . Then you 
could configure the DSIM PLL to 891 MHz , but you also have to make sure 
the DSI86 would expect the 891 MHz (please check the datasheet).

Try and look up patches below for related approach:
drm/bridge: ti-sn65dsi83: Add and use hs_rate and lp_rate
drm: bridge: samsung-dsim: Select DSI HS clock rate from downstream 
bridge limits

Well, the data sheet for the dsi86 says up to 750MHz DSI HS clock, and
if the value specified in samsung,burst-clock-frequency is twice the DSI
HS clk, I suppose I should be good up to 1.5GHz? I have tried many
different values, but I never seem to get anything through; I think I'm
missing some piece.

So now I've tried to use these patches on the imx8mp-evk with the
mipi->hdmi accessory from NXP, just to see if I can ever get any
graphics through the mipi interface. And there the story is the same:
the adv7535 bridge gets probed, and can read out the edid from the
monitor over hdmi. And while the mipi block and the bridge seem to
attach to each other, I still don't get any output.

Do any of you happen to have this working on the imx8mp-evk, and if so,
can you share the .dts updates you've done and how exactly you test the
graphics?

Thanks,
Rasmus

Oh, and could those of you who have some graphics working with the
mainline kernel on imx8mp tell which U-Boot you're using (NXP or
mainline, and which version). I'm using mainline U-Boot 2022.10.

I don't have access to an imx8mp-evk, but I tested the ADV7535 MIPI to
HDMI daughter card on an imx8mm-evk.

Some extra ADV7535 patches were needed. Please check patches 0020-0023
and see if they help.

Thanks, but they don't seem to make a difference.

I've started trying to simply compare registers between the NXP 5.15
kernel and the imx8mm-dsi-v12 branch with Marek's patch on top. Already
in MEDIA_BLK_CTRL, 0x32ec0000, there's something interesting:

 ## Media Mix Clock Enable Register
-CLK_EN                 0004    0080e133
+CLK_EN                 0004    00800133
 ## MIPI PHY Control Register
-MIPI_RESET_DIV         0008    40030000
+MIPI_RESET_DIV         0008    00020000

So with the NXP kernel, there are three bits set in CLK_EN which are not
set with the "mainline", but those bits are marked reserved in the RM,
so I have no idea if they are just some RO bits that get set due to some
other munging. Then there's the MIPI_RESET_DIV register where bits 16
and 30 do not get set. Of course, there are lots of other differences,
but perhaps this gives somebody an idea.

Thanks,
Rasmu

Looking at drivers/soc/imx/imx8m-blk-ctrl.c the bits for MIPI_RESET_DIV are
16: MIPI_CSI1
17: MIPI_DSI
30: MIPI_CSI2
So i think that's okay here.

No idea if it's important, but in the NXP kernel, there's a

	display-subsystem {
		compatible = "fsl,imx-display-subsystem";
		ports = <&lcdif1_disp>,
			<&lcdif2_disp>,
			<&lcdif3_disp>;
	};

node in imx8mp.dtsi, and when commenting out that node, the graphics
ceases to work, even if all the devices in the lcdif->mipi->bridge chain
actually probes. However, adding a corresponding node in mainline, which
does have a driver for that "fsl,imx-display-subsystem", makes no
difference; with or without that, I do get a /dev/fb0 device and the
whole chain probes, but again the monitor says no signal.

The NXP kernel is completely different. AFAIK it uses the component
helpers to bundle all subdrivers from a central driver
(display-subsystem). This is not how the mainline approach using the
bridge driver interface works. So you can't compare them.

Did you look at this extensive thread with findings from Adam?

https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/CAHCN7xJ=N1vWVTBjArskJ59fyaLzmAGWfc0E=_iGizrDNR_Udw@mail.gmail.com/

It is related to HDMI, but I guess a lot of things are valid for DP, too.

Anyway, we need to get this series merged. Otherwise we can't work on
fixing all the other issues on top.

Alright, I finally managed to get the imx8mm-dsi-v12 branch (commit
fdde97c7d553) to work, by modifying Marek's patch for enabling the
lcdif->mipi pipeline a little. The end result is in
https://github.com/Villemoes/linux/tree/imx8mp-mipi . There are also a
few cherry-picks of by-now-upstream patches to imx8mp.dtsi included.

It works on our custom hardware, with the ti,sn65dsi86 mipi->eDP bridge.

It does not seem to work on the imx8mp-evk with the adv7535 hdmi bridge
daughter board, but that's probably just as much the fault of the
adv7535 driver as anything in the SOC - it's impossible to get a real
data sheet for that thing, and there's no end of random patches floating
around, with the NXP kernel doing completely their own thing. So I've
given up on getting that to work.

I have a board with an ADV7535, and for that chip to work, there needs
to be some work to do some math on the front porch, back port, and
sync timings based on the number of lanes.  I have a work-in-progress
which supports 1080p, but I was waiting for the series to get accepted
first, since it seems to work when interacting directly with DSI
displays.  I have my patch working on imx8mm, imx8mn and imx8mp.  Once
the base driver is accepted, I'll push the patch for review.
