[PATCH v3] media: ov5675: Fix power on/off delay timings

From: Bryan O'Donoghue
Date: Sat Jul 13 2024 - 18:33:42 EST


The ov5675 specification says that the gap between XSHUTDN deassert and the
first I2C transaction should be a minimum of 8192 XVCLK cycles.

Right now we use a usleep_rage() that gives a sleep time of between about
430 and 860 microseconds.

On the Lenovo X13s we have observed that in about 1/20 cases the current
timing is too tight and we start transacting before the ov5675's reset
cycle completes, leading to I2C bus transaction failures.

The reset racing is sometimes triggered at initial chip probe but, more
usually on a subsequent power-off/power-on cycle e.g.

[ 71.451662] ov5675 24-0010: failed to write reg 0x0103. error = -5
[ 71.451686] ov5675 24-0010: failed to set plls

The current quiescence period we have is too tight. Instead of expressing
the post reset delay in terms of the current XVCLK this patch converts the
power-on and power-off delays to the maximum theoretical delay @ 6 MHz with
an additional buffer.

1.365 milliseconds on the power-on path is 1.5 milliseconds with grace.
85.3 microseconds on the power-off path is 90 microseconds with grace.

v3:
- Fixed my out-by-one 853 -> 85.3 us calc and the 900 us -> 90us calc as a
result.
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240711-linux-next-ov5675-v2-1-d0ea6ac2e6e9@xxxxxxxxxx

v2:
- Drop patch to read and act on reported XVCLK
- Use worst-case timings + a reasonable grace period in-lieu of previous
xvclk calculations on power-on and power-off.
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240711-linux-next-ov5675-v1-0-69e9b6c62c16@xxxxxxxxxx

v1:
One long running saga for me on the Lenovo X13s is the occasional failure
to either probe or subsequently bring-up the ov5675 main RGB sensor on the
laptop.

Initially I suspected the PMIC for this part as the PMIC is using a new
interface on an I2C bus instead of an SPMI bus. In particular I thought
perhaps the I2C write to PMIC had completed but the regulator output hadn't
become stable from the perspective of the SoC. This however doesn't appear
to be the case - I can introduce a delay of milliseconds on the PMIC path
without resolving the sensor reset problem.

Secondly I thought about reset pin polarity or drive-strength but, again
playing about with both didn't yield decent results.

I also played with the duration of reset to no avail.

The error manifested as an I2C write timeout to the sensor which indicated
that the chip likely hadn't come out reset. An intermittent fault appearing
in perhaps 1/10 or 1/20 reset cycles.

Looking at the expression of the reset we see that there is a minimum time
expressed in XVCLK cycles between reset completion and first I2C
transaction to the sensor. The specification calls out the minimum delay @
8192 XVCLK cycles and the ov5675 driver meets that timing almost exactly.

A little too exactly - testing finally showed that we were too racy with
respect to the minimum quiescence between reset completion and first
command to the chip.

Fixing this error I choose to base the fix again on the number of clocks
but to also support any clock rate the chip could support by moving away
from a define to reading and using the XVCLK.

True enough only 19.2 MHz is currently supported but for the hypothetical
case where some other frequency is supported in the future, I wanted the
fix introduced in this series to still hold.

Hence this series:

1. Allows for any clock rate to be used in the valid range for the reset.
2. Elongates the post-reset period based on clock cycles which can now
vary.

Patch #2 can still be backported to stable irrespective of patch #1.
