OMAPDSS: DISPC: Preload more data in pipeline DMAs for OMAP4+ SoCs
DISPC pipeline DMAs preload some bytes of pixel data in the vertical blanking region before the start of each frame. The preload ensures the pipeline doesn't underflow when the active region of the display starts. DISPC_GFX/VIDp_PRELOAD registers allow us to program how many bytes of data should be preloaded for each pipeline. Calculating a precise preload value would be a complex function of the pixel clock of the connected display, the vertical blanking duration and the interconnect traffic at that instance. If the register is left untouched, a default value is preloaded. We observe underflows for OMAP4+ SoCs for certain bandwidth intensive use cases with many other initiators active, and in situations where memory access isn't very efficient(like accessing Tiler mapped buffers and EMIF configured in non-interleaved more). The cause of the underflow is because the default preload value isn't sufficient for the DMA to reach a steady state. We configure the PRELOAD register such that the pipelines preload data up to the high threshold of the FIFO. Preloading lot of data for older SoCs can have a negative impact. Due to slower interconnects, it's possible that the DISPC DMA cannot preload up to the high threshold within the vertical blanking region of the panel. We leave the PRELOAD registers to their reset values since we haven't faced underflows with these SoCs because of low value of PRELOAD.
