[PATCH] phy: freescale: phy-fsl-imx8-mipi-dphy: Fix hs_zero underflow
From: Stefan Ghetu
Date: Tue Nov 10 2026 - 07:26:57 EST
From: "Oliver F. Brown" <oliver.brown@xxxxxxxxxxx>
The hs_zero timing is computed as
n = (144 * (hs_clk_rate / 1000000) - 47500) / 10000;
cfg->m_prg_hs_zero = n < 1 ? 1 : n;
hs_clk_rate is an unsigned long, so the subtraction is done unsigned and
wraps for any rate below about 330 MHz, where 144 * MHz < 47500. Because
n is a u32, the wrapped value is never seen as negative and the "n < 1"
clamp does not take effect. The garbage value is then truncated into the
8-bit m_prg_hs_zero register field. At the minimum supported rate of
80 MHz this programs 199 on 64-bit and 181 on 32-bit, instead of the
intended minimum of 1.
Make n signed and do the arithmetic in int so the clamp works on both
32-bit and 64-bit. The divided rate is at most 1500, so 144 * 1500 fits
easily in an int.
