There could be the case that the page flip operation isn't finished correctly
with some abnormal condition such as panel reset. So this patch replaces
wait_event() with wait_event_timeout() to avoid waiting for page flip completion
infinitely.
And clears exynos_crtc->pending_flip in exynos_drm_crtc_page_flip() when
exynos_drm_crtc_mode_set_commit() is failed.

I meant that changing this to wait_event_timeout() seems to be masking
the original problem, that pending_flip wasn't being cleared.

Yes, I agree.

The original purpose of this patch is to avoid lock-up during modetest (with test_vsync) with command mode panel. In MIPI DSI command mode interface, the display controller can not generate VSYNC signal and uses TE signal instead which is generated by panel. If there is an abnormal power off or reset condition, it is possible that the display controller misses the TE signal and it makes lock-up.
So I needed this patch.

Now that you are now clearing pending_flip in the error path, you
don't need the timeout, right?


There might be my missing point. Would you explain more detail?

Thank you.
Best regards YJ
