From 351af554edd994898db12217c3be39979e168d35 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paul Kocialkowski Date: Thu, 2 Apr 2026 20:33:51 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] drm: lcdif: Wait for vblank before disabling DMA It is necessary to wait for the full frame to finish streaming through the DMA engine before we can safely disable it by removing the DISP_PARA_DISP_ON bit. Disabling it in-flight can leave the hardware confused and unable to resume streaming for the next frame. This causes the FIFO underrun and empty status bits to be set and a single solid color to be shown on the display, coming from one of the pixels of the previous frame. The issue occurs sporadically when a new mode is set, which triggers the crtc disable and enable paths. Setting the shadow load bit and waiting for it to be cleared by the DMA engine allows waiting for completion. The NXP BSP driver addresses this issue with a hardcoded 25 ms sleep.
