According to the Allwinner A64's BSP code, the PLL rate needs to be set to the following frequency when using DSI:
PLL rate = DCLK * bpp / lanes
Source: [1]
The relevant lines for DSI (ommisions and comments mine):
dclk_rate = lcdp->panel_info.lcd_dclk_freq * 1000000;
lcd_rate = dclk_rate * clk_info.dsi_div; // dsi_div = bpp/lane
pll_rate = lcd_rate * clk_info.lcd_div; // lcd_div = 1 --> pll_rate = lcd_rate
dsi_rate = pll_rate / clk_info.dsi_div // --> dsi_rate = dclk_rate
clk_set_rate(lcdp->clk_parent, pll_rate);
This was already discussed by Maxime, Jagan and Michael in the past in the thread following this message: [2]. Unfortunately, there never was a conclusion in the form of code.
The attached patch is a slight variation of a patch that is part of megi's kernel branch that many PinePhone distributions (e.g. postmarketOS) use [3]. It calculates the TCON clock rate by using the formula above and dividing it by SUN6I_DSI_TCON_DIV, in order to force the parent clock to be set to the correct rate.
If I read the thread following this message [2] correctly, this was also what Maxime had in mind.
Please also note that, unfortunately, I only have a single board and panel (namely the PinePhone) to test this on.
Thanks,
Frank

Set the required PLL rate by adjusting the dotclock rate when calling
clk_set_rate() when using DSI.
According to the Allwinners A64's BSP code, a TCON divider of 4 has to
be used and the PLL rate needs to be set to the following frequency when
using DSI:
PLL rate = DCLK * bpp / lanes
After this change the common mode set function would only contain
setting the resolution. Therefore, dissolve the function and transfer
the functionality to the individual mode set functions.

This is similar to:

What's the story there?

Sorry, as Roman wrote in the other thread, I submitted the patch after not hearing back from him for a week. My apologies, I wasn’t patient enough. So now there are two submissions to consider. FWIW, I think this patch is a bit more straightforward than the other one.
Best regards,
Frank

Frank, there's no need to apologize, in my judgement. You weren't
impatient, we simply happened to run into a coordination problem for
which, I think, neither of us was particularly to blamew. Take it easy
:)
