Hi,
While testing HDMI with Xorg on the Juno board, I find that when Xorg
starts up or shuts down, the display is shifted significantly to the
right and wrapped in the active region. (No sync bars are visible.)
The timings are correct, it behaves as if the start address has been
shifted many pixels _into_ the framebuffer.
This occurs whenever the display mode size is changed - using xrandr
in Xorg shows that changing the resolution triggers the problem
almost every time, but changing the refresh rate does not.
Using devmem2 to disable and re-enable the HDLCD resolves the issue,
and repeated disable/enable cycles do not make the issue re-appear.
So, I patched the HDLCD to do this, and testing it with Xorg after
several repetitions seems to work.

What I think is going on is that the FIFO or address generator for
reading data from the AXI bus is not properly reset when changing the
resolution, and the enable-disable-enable cycle causes the HDLCD
hardware to sort itself out. It's (eg) significantly out - for example,
to properly align the display, I have to program an address of
0xf4ff0200 into the hardware rather than 0xf5000000 - that's 896 pixels
before the real start of the frame buffer.
With this patch, a patch to TDA998x to avoid the i2c-designware issue,
and xf86-video-armada, I have LXDE running on the Juno.
Something I also noticed is this:
scanout_start = gem->paddr + plane->state->fb->offsets[0] +
plane->state->crtc_y * plane->state->fb->pitches[0] +
plane->state->crtc_x * bpp / 8;
Surely this should be using src_[xy] (which are the position in the
source - iow, memory, and not crtc_[xy] which is the position on the
CRTC displayed window. To put it another way, the src_* define the
region of the source material that is mapped onto a rectangular area
on the display defined by crtc_*.
Another note is that since the CRTC can't place the plane in arbitary
positions and sizes within the active area, should the atomic_check
ensure that crtc_x = crtc_y = 0, and the crtc width/height are the
size of the active area?
