I had posted in https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/issues/8410#note_2216628 that I also noticed the A64 datasheet specifically claims that except for PLL_CPUX and PLL_DDR1, other PLLs don't support frequency scaling. I was never able to find any evidence that it is actually supposed to work anyway (perhaps it was hope?). Since you also looked in the BSP and there is still no evidence that it is supported, I support that we should likely just remove the OPPs. Also, I wanted to point out that my series https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/128856/#rev2 was merged to lima recently. That was the root cause of the "flipping between two frames" issue that people most probably hit. I highly recommend that people using the Pinephone update their kernel to include those fixes to fix that issue. As you mentioned about that symptom here, I just wanted to point out that it wouldn't be possible to fix the "flipping frames" issue with just fixes to A64 clock, it does need lima driver fixes. Thanks Erico
