I stumbled on this code when applying my big DFP series (sorry that
I forgot to read this while it was on the list).

Anyways, this code appears somewhat confused about the different
clocks.

That I presume is the max symbol rate of the link.

That is the maximum dotclock (also the max TMDS clock before my DFP
series landed) the DFP supports.

max() between the symbol rate and dotclock doesn't really
make sense. One is the amount of symbols (or data in other
words), the other is amount of pixels (which depending on
bpc can result in various amounts of symbols/data).

> +	clock = mode->clock * (connector->display_info.bpc * 3) / 10;

I presume this trying to compute the symbol rate we require.
Due to the 8b/10b encoding each 10bit symbol carries 8 bits of
actual data, so the /10 should be /8. IIRC we had this same
bug in i915, but it was fixed years ago.

This is also calculating things based on display_info.bpc which
IIRC is the max bpc the display supports. Using the max may be
overly pessimistic in case a) the driver/hw doesn't even support
bpc that high, b) the driver can dynamically reduce the bpc in
order to fit the mode onto the link. In i915 we take the opposite
approach and just use the min bpc (==6) in mode_valid(). During
modeset we start from the max bpc and keep reducing it until
things fit.


So I suspect what you want here is something like:

max_clock = outp->dp.link_nr * outp->dp.link_bw;
clock = mode->clock * (connector->display_info.bpc * 3) / 8; // or maybe just use 6 for bpc
if (clock > max_clock)
	reurn CLOCK_HIGH;

ds_clock = drm_dp_downstream_max_dotclock();
if (ds_clock && mode->clock > ds_clock)
	return CLOCK_HIGH;

+ a bit more if you want to also deal with the TMDS
clock limits sensibly. That also requires some though
as to which bpc to use. In i915 we assume 8bpc when
calculating the TMDS clock since that's the minimum
DVI/HDMI supports.
