Subject: [PATCH] PCI: rockchip: Use GPIOD_OUT_LOW flag while requesting
ep_gpio
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
Rockchip platforms use 'GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH' flag in the devicetree definition
for ep_gpio. This means, whatever the logical value set by the driver for
the ep_gpio, physical line will output the same logic level.
For instance,
gpiod_set_value_cansleep(rockchip->ep_gpio, 0); --> Level low
gpiod_set_value_cansleep(rockchip->ep_gpio, 1); --> Level high
But while requesting the ep_gpio, GPIOD_OUT_HIGH flag is currently used.
Now, this also causes the physical line to output 'high' creating trouble
for endpoint devices during host reboot.
When host reboot happens, the ep_gpio will initially output 'low' due to
the GPIO getting reset to its POR value. Then during host controller probe,
it will output 'high' due to GPIOD_OUT_HIGH flag. Then during
rockchip_pcie_host_init_port(), it will first output 'low' and then 'high'
indicating the completion of controller initialization.
On the endpoint side, each output 'low' of ep_gpio is accounted for PERST#
assert and 'high' for PERST# deassert. With the above mentioned flow during
host reboot, endpoint will witness below state changes for PERST#:
(1) PERST# assert - GPIO POR state
(2) PERST# deassert - GPIOD_OUT_HIGH while requesting GPIO
(3) PERST# assert - rockchip_pcie_host_init_port()
(4) PERST# deassert - rockchip_pcie_host_init_port()
Now the time interval between (2) and (3) is very short as both happen
during the driver probe(), and this results in a race in the endpoint.
Because, before completing the PERST# deassertion in (2), endpoint got
another PERST# assert in (3).
A proper way to fix this issue is to change the GPIOD_OUT_HIGH flag in (2)
to GPIOD_OUT_LOW. Because the usual convention is to request the GPIO with
a state corresponding to its 'initial/default' value and let the driver
change the state of the GPIO when required.
As per that, the ep_gpio should be requested with GPIOD_OUT_LOW as it
corresponds to the POR value of '0' (PERST# assert in the endpoint). Then
the driver can change the state of the ep_gpio later in
rockchip_pcie_host_init_port() as per the initialization sequence.
This fixes the firmware crash issue in Qcom based modems connected to
Rockpro64 based board.

Subject: [PATCH] fbdev: vesafb: Detect VGA compatibility from screen info's
VESA attributes
Test the vesa_attributes field in struct screen_info for compatibility
with VGA hardware. Vesafb currently tests bit 1 in screen_info's
capabilities field which indicates a 64-bit lfb address and is
unrelated to VGA compatibility.
Section 4.4 of the Vesa VBE 2.0 specifications defines that bit 5 in
the mode's attributes field signals VGA compatibility. The mode is
compatible with VGA hardware if the bit is clear. In that case, the
driver can access VGA state of the VBE's underlying hardware. The
vesafb driver uses this feature to program the color LUT in palette
modes. Without, colors might be incorrect.
The problem got introduced in commit 89ec4c238e7a ("[PATCH] vesafb: Fix
incorrect logo colors in x86_64"). It incorrectly stores the mode
attributes in the screen_info's capabilities field and updates vesafb
accordingly. Later, commit 5e8ddcbe8692 ("Video mode probing support for
the new x86 setup code") fixed the screen_info, but did not update vesafb.
Color output still tends to work, because bit 1 in capabilities is
usually 0.
Besides fixing the bug in vesafb, this commit introduces a helper that
reads the correct bit from screen_info.

attributes in the screen_info's capabilities field and updates vesafb
accordingly. Later, commit 5e8ddcbe8692 ("Video mode probing support for
the new x86 setup code") fixed the screen_info, but did not update vesafb.
Color output still tends to work, because bit 1 in capabilities is
usually 0.
Besides fixing the bug in vesafb, this commit introduces a helper that
reads the correct bit from screen_info.

Subject: [PATCH] fbdev: vesafb: Detect VGA compatibility from screen info's
VESA attributes
Test the vesa_attributes field in struct screen_info for compatibility
with VGA hardware. Vesafb currently tests bit 1 in screen_info's
capabilities field which indicates a 64-bit lfb address and is
unrelated to VGA compatibility.
Section 4.4 of the Vesa VBE 2.0 specifications defines that bit 5 in
the mode's attributes field signals VGA compatibility. The mode is
compatible with VGA hardware if the bit is clear. In that case, the
driver can access VGA state of the VBE's underlying hardware. The
vesafb driver uses this feature to program the color LUT in palette
modes. Without, colors might be incorrect.
The problem got introduced in commit 89ec4c238e7a ("[PATCH] vesafb: Fix
incorrect logo colors in x86_64"). It incorrectly stores the mode
attributes in the screen_info's capabilities field and updates vesafb
accordingly. Later, commit 5e8ddcbe8692 ("Video mode probing support for
the new x86 setup code") fixed the screen_info, but did not update vesafb.
Color output still tends to work, because bit 1 in capabilities is
usually 0.
Besides fixing the bug in vesafb, this commit introduces a helper that
reads the correct bit from screen_info.
