Subject: [PATCH] drm/bridge/synopsys: dsi: use adjusted_mode in mode_set

The "adjusted_mode" clock value (ie the real pixel clock) is more
accurate than "mode" clock value (ie the panel/bridge requested
clock value). It offers a better preciseness for timing
computations and allows to reduce the extra dsi bandwidth in
burst mode (from ~20% to ~10-12%, hw platform dependant).

These two appear to be the same for my cases, but at least nothing breaks:

In drivers/gpu/drm/rockchip/rockchip_drm_vop.c function
vop_crtc_mode_fixup(), the adjusted_mode->clock (ie. vop px clk output =
dw dsi px clk input) is updated according to rockchip hw pll/dividers...

So you "may" have a different value in adjusted_mode->clock compare to
mode->clock. Maybe there is no difference for the panel you are using
because its px clock matches perfectly with rockchip hw pll/dividers...
or has been set to match with ;-)

I did a similar patch (see [1]) and it works "fine" on stm, the only
difference with the rockchip vop is that clk_round_rate() returns odd
values on stm so I used set/get_rate instead.

So now, both rockchip & stm crtc have an "adjusted_mode->clock" so it
makes sense to use it in dw dsi :)

Could you get the patch [1] queued on drm-misc-next? I can queue this patch
after it.

The adjusted mode is documented as

/**
* @adjusted_mode:
*
* Internal display timings which can be used by the driver to handle
* differences between the mode requested by userspace in @mode and what
* is actually programmed into the hardware. It is purely driver
* implementation defined what exactly this adjusted mode means. Usually
* it is used to store the hardware display timings used between the
* CRTC and encoder blocks.
*/

This is easy to handle when the CRTC and encoder are controlled by the same
driver, as the field is "implementation defined" by a single driver . However,
when using bridges, there are two drivers involved, and they must both agree
to meaningfully use the adjusted mode. I can't see how to do so without
standardizing the meaning of the adjusted mode field.

Daniel, what's your opinion on this ?

This is exactly the reason why my first implementation used the dsi
bridge "optional pixel clock" instead of the adjusted_mode (see [1])

But after digging more into the drm source code, I think using
adjusted_mode instead of the pixel clock here brings more advantages
because:
* adjusted_mode is an argument of bridge mode_set() probably for being
used in any manner, maybe like this :)
* if the bridge "user" (crtc or a master bridge drivers) does not need
to modify its adjusted_mode then mode & adjusted_mode mode_set()
arguments will have the same values so "no consequence" for the bridge.
* if the bridge "user" (crtc or master bridge drivers) needs to adjust
any value of the mode then this adjustment is available for the bridge.
* rockchip crtc updates a part of the mode (the clock), stm is doing the
same (see [2]) but any future "user" of the dw_mipi_dsi bridge can
adjust something else (blankings...) and the dw_mipi_dsi bridge will be
then aware of...

But maybe it is a wrong usage of the "adjusted_mode offer"...

Many thanks,
Philippe :-)

Remember that there can be multiple chained bridges, and a single adjusted
mode field.

I don't disagree that there's a need for using adjusted values, but I believe
we need to create a clear API to do so. Using the adjust_mode field as-is when
it's clearly documented as being implementation-defined is asking for trouble.

Laurent, do you think we can use "adjusted mode" here in this small
patch as the actual 2 "users" of this bridge (rockchip & stm) use both
"adjusted mode" in their crtc?

The Synopsys DSI driver might only be used by two display controller drivers
today, it is nonetheless a standard bridge driver that should not make any
assumption of a particular use of the adjusted_mode in particular display
controller drivers. To use the adjusted_mode value in bridge drivers we need
to standardize its usage, otherwise we'll end up with incompatibilities
between bridge drivers and display controller drivers.

Now that the documentation has been clarified I have no objection against this
patch anymore.
