[PATCH v3 1/4] drm/vc4: Wait for display list synchronization when completing commit

From: Paul Kocialkowski
Date: Tue Jan 08 2019 - 09:51:50 EST


During an atomic commit, the HVS is configured with a display list
for the channel matching the associated CRTC. The Pixel Valve (CRTC)
and encoder are also configured for the new setup at that time.
While the Pixel Valve and encoder are reconfigured synchronously, the
HVS is only reconfigured after the display list address (DISPLIST) has
been updated to the current display list address (DISPLACTX), which is
the responsibility of the hardware.

The time frame during which the HVS is still running on its previous
configuration but the CRTC and encoder have been reconfigured already
can lead to a number of synchronization issues. They will eventually
cause errors reported on the FIFOs, such as underruns.

With underrun detection enabled (from Boris Brezillon's series), this
leads to unreliable underrun detection with random false positives.

To ensure a coherent state, wait for each enabled channel of the HVS
to synchronize its current display list address. This fixes the issue
of random underrun reporting on commits.
