This is what the current code is doing as well.

Again, this is wrong and contrary to what your commit log is saying.

The Allwinner code has:

u32 vfp = panel->lcd_vt - panel->lcd_y - panel->lcd_vbp;
u32 dsi_start_delay = panel->lcd_vt - vfp + 1;

So, essentially:

vtotal - (vtotal - vdisplay - back porch) + 1

The backporch is hsync_total - hsync_end, so we end up, removing the
addition / removal of vtotal, with:

vdisplay - (vsync_total - vsync_end) + 1

The formula used there looks indeed different, but unlike what you
were saying.

I guess that it's actually the clamping that fixes thing. It should be
mentionned in your commit log.

The current code
return mode->vtotal - (mode->vsync_end - mode->vdisplay) + 1;

(mode->vsync_end - mode->vdisplay) = front porch + sync

but I'm updating here only front porch.

let me explain this.

Actual code from Allwinner
u32 vfp = panel->lcd_vt - panel->lcd_y - panel->lcd_vbp;

So,

=> (panel->lcd_vt - panel->lcd_y) - (panel->lcd_vbp)
=> (front porch + sync + back porch) - (back porch + sync)
=> front porch + sync + back porch - back porch - sync
=> front porch
=> mode->vsync_start - mode->vdisplay

Hope it clear.

Unless Allwinner is doing something fishy, in which case that should
be mentionned, the back porch doesn't contain the sync pulse.

As per as I understand panel->lcd_vbp is not back porch timings value
which i used by drm. It is BSP DTS property value and actual back porch
is calculated as "panel->lcd_vbp - panel->sync"

timmings->ver_sync_time= panel_info->lcd_vspw;
timmings->ver_back_porch= panel_info->lcd_vbp-panel_info->lcd_vspw;

Then this is what you should have started with in your commit
log. Where is that code coming from? Have you been able to confirm
that with an oscilloscope?
