Yes, the panel is running at 60 HZ according to the Xorg log with
Ville's patch applied:
modeset(0): Modeline "1080x1920"x60.0 125.50 1080 1082 1084 1086
1920 1922 1924 1926 (115.6 kHz eP)
I verified there's no underflow errors in dmesg.
If I recall correctly, the clock speeds that was in your tree was set
too low for the gpu_opp_table (that wouldn't cause this issue), but I
seem to recall there were some other clock speed mismatches. The
bandwidth requests weren't set on the RPM as well, so maybe that
contributed to the problem. That's done upstream with the msm8974
interconnect driver:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/interconnect/qcom/msm8974.c
There's a separate known issue with 'pp done time out' errors that
occur on the framebuffer that started upstream several months ago with
the introduction of async commit support in the MSM driver. I tried
working around this by enabling the autorefresh feature but it's not
fully working yet and I hit a dead end since there's no docs available
publicly for this. The grim details are at:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20191230020053.26016-2-masneyb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/
So I'm still OK with Ville's patch going in.
