Since the initial commit 57692c9 ("drm/v3d: Introduce a new DRM driver for Broadcom V3D V3.x+") the struct v3d_dev reserved a pointer for an optional V3D clock. But there wasn't any code, which fetched it. So add the missing clock handling before accessing any V3D registers.

The V3D driver still relies on `drm_sched_increase_karma()` and `drm_sched_resubmit_jobs()` for resubmissions when a timeout occurs. The function `drm_sched_increase_karma()` marks the job as guilty, while `drm_sched_resubmit_jobs()` sets an error (-ECANCELED) in the DMA fence of that guilty job. Because of this, we must check whether the job’s DMA fence has been flagged with an error before executing the job. Otherwise, the same guilty job may be resubmitted indefinitely, causing repeated GPU resets. This patch adds a check for an error on the job's fence to prevent running a guilty job that was previously flagged when the GPU timed out. Note that the CPU and CACHE_CLEAN queues do not require this check, as their jobs are executed synchronously once the DRM scheduler starts them.

Similar to commit e4b5ccd ("drm/v3d: Ensure job pointer is set to NULL after job completion"), ensure the job pointer is set to `NULL` when a job's fence has an error. Failing to do so can trigger kernel warnings in specific scenarios, such as: 1. v3d_csd_job_run() assigns `v3d->csd_job = job` 2. CSD job exceeds hang limit, causing a timeout → v3d_gpu_reset_for_timeout() 3. GPU reset 4. drm_sched_resubmit_jobs() sets the job's fence to `-ECANCELED`. 5. v3d_csd_job_run() detects the fence error and returns NULL, not submitting the job to the GPU 6. User-space runs `modprobe -r v3d` 7. v3d_gem_destroy() v3d_gem_destroy() triggers a warning indicating that the CSD job never ended, as we didn't set `v3d->csd_job` to NULL after the timeout. The same can also happen to BIN, RENDER, and TFU jobs. Reviewed-by: Iago Toral Quiroga <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Maíra Canal <[email protected]>
The V3D driver currently determines the GPU tech version (33, 41...) by reading a register. This approach has worked so far since this information wasn’t needed before powering on the GPU. V3D 7.1 introduces new registers that must be written to power on the GPU, requiring us to know the V3D version beforehand. To address this, associate each supported SoC with the corresponding VideoCore GPU version as part of the device data. To prevent possible mistakes, add an assertion to verify that the version specified in the device data matches the one reported by the hardware. If there is a mismatch, the kernel will trigger a warning. Reviewed-by: Iago Toral Quiroga <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Maíra Canal <[email protected]>
In order to enforce per-SoC register rules, add per-compatible restrictions. V3D 3.3 (represented by brcm,7268-v3d) has a cache controller (GCA), which is not present in other V3D generations. Declaring these differences helps ensure the DTB accurately reflect the hardware design. While not ideal, this commit keeps the register order flexible for brcm,7268-v3d with the goal to keep the ABI backwards compatible. Signed-off-by: Maíra Canal <[email protected]>
V3D 7.1 exposes a new register block, called V3D_SMS. As BCM2712 has a V3D 7.1 core, add a new register item to its compatible. Similar to the GCA, which is specific for V3D 3.3, SMS is optional and should only be added for V3D 7.1 variants (such as brcm,2712-v3d). Signed-off-by: Maíra Canal <[email protected]>
In addition to the standard reset controller, V3D 7.x requires configuring the V3D_SMS registers for proper power on/off and reset. Add the new registers to `v3d_regs.h` and ensure they are properly configured during device probing, removal, and reset. This change fixes GPU reset issues on the Raspberry Pi 5 (BCM2712). Without exposing these registers, a GPU reset causes the GPU to hang, stopping any further job execution and freezing the desktop GUI. The same issue occurs when unloading and loading the v3d driver.

As established in commit 89d0499 ("MAINTAINERS: Drop Emma Anholt from all M lines."), Emma is no longer active in the Linux kernel and dropped the V3D maintainership. Therefore, remove Emma as one of the DT maintainers and add the current V3D driver maintainer.
