Currently, mtk_dsi_lane_ready (which setup the DSI lane) is triggered
before mtk_dsi_poweron. lanes_ready flag toggle to true during
mtk_dsi_lane_ready function, and the DSI module is set up during
mtk_dsi_poweron.

Later, during panel driver init, mtk_dsi_lane_ready is triggered but does
nothing because lanes are considered ready. Unfortunately, when the panel
driver try to communicate, the DSI returns a timeout.

The solution found here is to put lanes_ready flag to false after the DSI
module setup into mtk_dsi_poweron to init the DSI lanes after the power /
setup of the DSI module.

I'm not clear about what happen.
I think this DSI flow has worked for a long time.
So only some panel has problem?

I don't know if it's related to a specific panel or not.


And another question.
Do you mean mtk_dsi_lane_ready() do some setting to hardware, but lane is not actually ready?

The workflow should be:
... | dsi->lanes_ready = false | Power-on | setup dsi lanes | dsi->lanes_ready = true (to avoid re-do dsi lanes setup) | ...

I observe (print function name called + dsi->lanes_ready value):

Alex, the first poweron is called by mtk_dsi_ddp_start() - and the start callback
is internal to the mediatek-drm driver.

That callback is called by mtk_crtc during setup and during bridge enable(), and
there we go with suboptimal code design backfiring - instead of using what the
DRM APIs provide, this driver uses something custom *and* the DRM APIs, giving
this issue.

Part of what mtk_crtc does is duplicated with what the DRM APIs want to do, so
there you go, that's your problem here :-)

Should I go on with describing the next step(s), or is that obvious for everyone?

:-)

Cheers,

Ok thanks Angelo.
Can you let me know if you agree with this change please ? This should be better:
