i.MX8MQ USB3 PHY: about tuning parameters

Hi,

I need to adjust signal waveform on USB.
The below URL is the device tree of i.MX8MQ on the GitHub, and I can find USB-related parameters.
linux-imx/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/phy/fsl,imx8mq-usb-phy.yaml at lf-6.6.y_6.6.52-2.2.0_var...

I would like to know is that how to use following seven parameters. There is short descriptions on each parameter, but I do not understand the effect on signal waveform when parameters are changed.
Could you tell me descriptions in detail to adjust USB waveform, or share any documents  with me.

fsl,phy-tx-vref-tune-percent:
description:
Tunes the HS DC level relative to the nominal level
minimum: 94
maximum: 124

fsl,phy-tx-rise-tune-percent:
description:
Adjusts the rise/fall time duration of the HS waveform relative to
its nominal value
minimum: 97
maximum: 103

description:
Adjust TX de-emphasis attenuation in dB at nominal
3.5dB point as per USB specification

The yellowing is normal for Uponor clear PEX and mostly cosmetic. Heat in the attic and normal oxidation cause it to turn yellow, even on cold lines. It is not a sign of failure by itself. Your bigger concern is the 80 psi water pressure which is on the high side and should be reduced closer to 60–65 psi with a pressure reducing valve. Unless you see cracks, brittleness, or leaks, there is no need for repair just because of the color change. It is a lot like Avalon Park film in that what you notice is a change in appearance rather than a problem with performance.
