Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Fix st7703 panel initialization failures

When extending the driver for xbd599 panel support I tried to do minimal
changes and keep the existing initialization timing.

It turned out that it's not good enough and the existing init sequence
is too aggressive and doesn't follow the specification. On PinePhone
panel is being powered down/up during suspend/resume and with current
timings this frequently leads to corrupted display.

This patch series fixes the problems.

The issue was reported by Samuel Holland.

Relevant screenshots from the datasheet:

Subject: [PATCH 1/2] drm/panel: st7703: Make the sleep exit timing match the spec

The driver seemed to try to make the total cumulative time of all delays
across the whole power up sequence to sum up to 120ms.

The datasheet on the other hand specifies that there needs to be 120ms
delay after the sleep out command, not after reset as the driver
assumes.

Lastly, the delay between init commands and the sleep exit command is
not necessary. (not specified anywhere)

Given the amount of ST7703 look alikes i don't think you can go by the
datasheet and hope not to break other panels. The current sleeps cater
for the rocktech panel (which suffered from similar issues you describe
when we took other parameters) so you need to make those panel specific.

It should work on rocktech too. The patch mostly increases/reorders the delays
slightly, to match the controller documentation. I don't see a reason to
complicate the driver with per panel special delays, unless these patches don't
work on your panel.

The init sequence is still suboptimal, and doesn't follow the kernel docs
completely, even after these patches. Controller spec also talks about adding
some delay before enabling the backlight to avoid visual glitches.

Which is what enable callback is documented to be for. Currently part of the
initialization that belongs to prepare callback is also done in enable callback.

I see the glitch (small vertical shift of the image on powerup), but personally
don't care much to introduce even more delays to the driver, just for the
cosmetic issue.

That's why i brought it up. It breaks the rocktech panel on
blank/unblank loops where it just stays blank and then starts hitting
DSI command timeouts.

Good to know. Does keeping the msleep(20); after init sequence and before sleep
exit make it work?

We need both sleeps to make this work reliably so basically
reverting your 'drm/panel: st7703: Make the sleep exit timing match the
spec' makes things stable again.

We don't need to sleep 120ms after sleep out though since our panel only
requires 15ms as per data sheet there so it really makes sense to make
these configurable.

Thank you for checking it.

I'd be happy with just the other patch being applied. That would be enough
to fix issues with xingbangda panel too.

In my tests xbd panel doesn't need 120ms either, despite the datasheet.
What breaks xbd panel is the lack of post-powerup delay before deasserting
reset line.

That's fine since that case works here too. The commit message
should be adjusted though since the ST7703 data sheet i'm looking at says
there's no restriction about applying IOVCC and VCI (tRPW= +/- no
limit). You're basically also switching to another reset pattern (the
data sheet describes two). So instead of saying:

"Fix the power up sequence of the panel"

i'd rather say

"Pick a reset sequence that works for ingbangda,xbd599 panel too"

and then describe the changes since that helps us to identify later
on why we made that change. With that and 1/2 dropped that looks good to
me.
