HDMI doesn't refresh - IMX8mp

ZhouLiang1 — Fri, 17 May 2024 02:32:54 GMT

Hi, experts

I recently encountered an HDMI display problem. During the test, I test HDMI display with weston service. Sometimes the HDMI screen could not be refreshed, but the pictures in weston's memory had been updated(I have dumped the memory into png files). Please tell me how to check the HDMI's registers to find out the problem?

I check the lcdif3 register, and find when HDMI does refresh, the register of lcdif has a little difference:

0x32fc6024 = 01000003

From the iMX process manual we can know the UNDERRUN flag is being set.

Thank you

Best Regards

Snow

Hi, joanxie

I used mainline linux for testing before, not linux-imx. The test steps are:

plug and unplug HDMI cable

During this test process, there is a certain probability that this problem will occur.

Although I am using mainLine linux, I still want to know what causes the FIFO empty error in lcdif

Thank you!

In your known issue description, are there also FIFO empty and UNDER RUN exceptions according to the register value?

Can you provide more information about your know issue?

Thank you.
