Hi Quanyang,

Thank you for the patch.

Isn't this an issue in the firmware though, which shouldn't clear the
previous VPLLF_FRAC_CFG ?

Nonetheless, this change looks good to me, I actually had the same patch
in my tree while investigation issues related to the clock rate, so

I was hoping it would solve the issue I'm experiencing with the DP
clock, but that's not the case :-( In a nutshell, when the DP is first
started, the clock frequency is incorrect. The following quick & dirty
patch fixes the problem:

diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/xlnx/zynqmp_disp.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/xlnx/zynqmp_disp.c
index 74ac0a064eb5..fdbe1b0640aa 100644
--- a/drivers/gpu/drm/xlnx/zynqmp_disp.c
+++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/xlnx/zynqmp_disp.c
@@ -1439,6 +1439,10 @@ zynqmp_disp_crtc_atomic_enable(struct drm_crtc *crtc,

pm_runtime_get_sync(disp->dev);

+ ret = clk_prepare_enable(disp->pclk);
+ if (!ret)
+ clk_disable_unprepare(disp->pclk);
+
zynqmp_disp_crtc_setup_clock(crtc, adjusted_mode);

ret = clk_prepare_enable(disp->pclk);

The problem doesn't seem to be in the kernel, but on the TF-A or PMU
firmware side. Have you experienced this by any chance ?
