There could be the case that the page flip operation isn't finished

And clears exynos_crtc->pending_flip in exynos_drm_crtc_page_flip() when
exynos_drm_crtc_mode_set_commit() is failed.

I meant that changing this to wait_event_timeout() seems to be masking
the original problem, that pending_flip wasn't being cleared.
Yes, I agree.
The original purpose of this patch is to avoid lock-up during modetest (with
test_vsync) with command mode panel.
In MIPI DSI command mode interface, the display controller can not generate
VSYNC signal and uses TE signal instead which is generated by panel.
If there is an abnormal power off or reset condition, it is possible that
At first, I omitted the keyword "panel" at previous reply.
The abnormal power off or reset condition could be happened in panel
which generates TE signal.
the display controller misses the TE signal and it makes lock-up.
So I needed this patch.
If flips are not completing on MIPI DSI, may I recommend that you
start a timer when scheduling such a flip in the MIPI DSI driver that
will expire after a timeout. In that timer's expiration handler, you
The MIPI DSI doesn't take care page flip operation at all.
And the exynos_drm_crtc_finish_page_flip() is called only by interrupt
handler of display controllers.
So there is no suitable place to set time-out for this.
can then go through the normal process of completing a flip. This
would make the timeout transparent to the generic exynos_drm_crtc
layer, which can then do its normal flip complete processing: send
pending vblank events, put vblank, clear pending_flip, etc.
Does that make sense?
Is it possible?
This function is exynos_drm_crtc_dpms() and my patch is for DPMS OFF case.
That means all page flip operations should be finished already to
control DPMS off and in almost every case, there is no problem.
But if there is an issue like this lock-up, I think it should escape
this condition.
Thank you.

Now that you are now clearing pending_flip in the error path, you
don't need the timeout, right?
There might be my missing point. Would you explain more detail?
Thank you.
