[PATCH v2 0/4] drm/msm/adreno: Add Adreno 620

From: Ishu Brar via B4 Relay

Date: Fri Oct 23 2026 - 04:50:39 EST


This adds Adreno 620 GPU found in Qualcomm SM7250 (Snapdragon
765/765G/768G) to msm driver. It is A650 derivative using
a650 SQE/GMU firmware and a620_zap.mbn. On top of catalog entry it
needs two A620 specific GMU changes:

- A620 has no PDC setup from AOP, so PDC sequencer is
programmed from driver (xo/mx/cx addresses from cmd-db). Without
it RSC never acks second power-up and device hangs.
- A bandwidth table with BCM addresses of this SoC. The generic
A630 one does not exist on SM7250, so first GX performance vote
times out.

Tested on OnePlus Nord (SM7250) running mainline: the GPU, GMU and
Vulkan work. This needs the SM7250 SMMU series [1] as well, otherwise
the device is reset when the first per-process pagetable is created.
The SoC devicetree nodes are not part of this series; they will be sent
separately once the SoC dtsi is accepted.

Changes in v2:
- Patch 3: also program the VRM command (vrm.soc + 4) in TCS1 and TCS3
when cmd-db has it, as the downstream driver does (Konrad).
- Patch 4: GMU clock gating mode is 0x00020202 as downstream (was
0x00020200); add the SH0/MC0/ACV BCM list for the generic bandwidth
table. The bus widths are the ones the other A6xx/A7xx parts use.
- Patch 2 is kept for now: the generic table is only used when the OPP
table has bandwidth levels, which needs the SM7250 interconnect
driver and DT that are not upstream yet. Without it the A620 would
fall back to the A630 table.
- Testing: v2 was re-tested on the OnePlus Nord (these changes on top
of my 7.3-rc7 port tree, not on msm-next), with the interconnect
path and OPP bandwidth levels in the GPU node. Vulkan workloads ran
across GPU power cycles and all four GPU frequencies; each frequency
selected its own bandwidth level, the generated BCM votes scale
linearly with the OPP bandwidth and the GMU accepted the table. I
could not read back the resulting DDR frequency.
- Protect map (patch 4 follow-up suggested by Konrad): not included
yet, waiting for the downstream reference of the 0x1c800 range.
