start value in video start delay computation done in below commit
is as per the legacy bsp drivers/video/sunxi/legacy..
"drm/sun4i: dsi: Change the start delay calculation"
(sha1: da676c6aa6413d59ab0a80c97bbc273025e640b2)

This existing start delay computation gives start value of 35,
for "bananapi,s070wv20-ct16" panel timings which indeed trigger
panel flip_done timed out as:

But the expected start delay value is 1 which is confirmed from
new bsp [2].

The important and unclear note on legacy and new bsp codes [1] [2]
is both use similar start computation initially but it later reassign
it to 1 in new bsp.

Unfortunately we don't have any evidence or documentation for this
reassignment to 1 in new bsp, but it is working with all supported
panels in A33, A64.

So, use the start as per new bsp code since it is working in all
the supported panels.

If you're saying that the "legacy" link (second one) is the new BSP.

Then start_delay is never reassigned to 1 in that link, and is clamped
between 8 and 100 as the code that you are removing is doing.

No, it's not. That was added to fix a panel that is supported today.

No, I have see this in  A33, A64. and these are controller drivers
right, if it panel fix and it should be part of panel driver isn't it?

We can even see the same in pin64 longsleep kernel and others.

I'm not sure to follow that argument. You're submitting that fix to
allow other panels to work, right? So surely, some issues that can be
found using a given panel might not be solely fixed in the panel driver.

Yeah, and both of these have the legacy driver part with the clamping
too.

I'll test these patches again some time next week

I'm not sure I understand this. I have been verifying different panels
to check across. and this change literally in BSP and the BSP code is
using this based on the logs confirmation. all the logs and working
conditions shows that the fix would required in dsi.

Yes, both legacy has clamping, but not using. they used it in new
version driver which I'm referring above.

Any help on the testing.

You were saying that your fix was working with all supported panels in
A33, A64. That's simply not true, since at least one of mine will be
broken by this.

You can say that it fixes all the panels *you* have, but it's
certainly not all of them.

See the links above, they are being used.

I'm sorry, but I just don't get what you're saying. The links
mentionned above are clearly showing that it's being used, while the
other, !legacy, driver doesn't have them anymore. So it seems to be
exactly the opposite of what you're saying.

The panels I have are running A33, A64 AW BSP and there are not using
legacy drivers. better you can use what AW BSP's are using, if
something not working with AW bsp then there can be an issue on the
panel init sequence or timings.

legacy drivers have the clamping of what the current code has, I agree
that point. but the new version BSP driver which is running on right
now, don't have clamping instead they do have a change what this patch
has.

There is a standard format for referencing commits. Please use it.
The format is:

    ... commit <leading 12 characters of commit hash> ("commit subject") ...

So your commit message should read:

    start value in video start delay was changed in commit
da676c6aa641 ("drm/sun4i:
    dsi: Change the start delay calculation") to match the legacy BSP
driver [1].

It would be better to actually list the panels you tested. The list of
"supported panels" is nowhere to be found, and would change from release
to release anyways. It would be hard for anyone to realize which ones
were actually tested.

It would also help if others want to verify your fix, and/or test other
hardware.

Also I suggest following a similar pattern to the suggestions I gave for patch 1
for writing your commit logs:

  1. Describe what you observe to be not working.

     In this case, the display is not working, with the provided traceback
     and kernel logs.

  2. Describe what you think went wrong.

     This could be a git bisect result, or in this case, you are
providing evidence
     from the BSP with links and actual results from hardware running
the BSP. For
     actual running BSP, it would be better to provide the actual
hardware combinations
     you are running on, in addition to the BSP links. Last, the best
piece of concrete
     evidence might be relevant register values from functioning hardware.

  3. Explain that the fix corrects the issue for you, and list the hardware
     that it works on.

  4. Optional. Any other thoughts on the subject matter, such as suspicion of
     other broken hardware, or the fix might not be complete.

Please list your references in increasing order:

    [1] https://github.com/BPI-SINOVOIP/BPI-M2M-bsp/blob/master/linux-sunxi/drivers/video/sunxi/legacy/disp/de_bsp/de/ebios/de_dsi.c#L682

It is otherwise confusing. I believe Maxime might have mixed up the two.

Otherwise I believe the commit message matches the intent of the code.
I'm afraid I don't know enough about DSI in general or the hardware to
comment on why this works and if it's the right fix though.

ChenYu
