Subject: [PATCH v2] drm/amd/display: set allow_freesync before validating a new stream
Date: Mon, 26 Oct 2026 12:33:45 +0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261026073345.297491-1-mikhail.v.gavrilov@gmail.com> (raw)
After resume from S3, DC enables SubVP on a single FreeSync display at
a high refresh rate, although dcn32_allow_subvp_high_refresh_rate() is
meant to keep SubVP off that configuration ("For single display cases,
freesync must be disabled"). On an RX 7900 XTX driving a FreeSync TV
at 3840x2160@120, amdgpu_dm_capabilities reports sub-viewport disabled
after boot and enabled after "rtcwake -m mem", and the memory clock
starts switching. It stays that way until a later commit re-validates
the state; a CRTC gamma change (toggling Night Light) turns SubVP off
again.
The policy reads dc_stream_state::allow_freesync while the new state
is validated, but amdgpu_dm sets that field only in
amdgpu_dm_update_freesync_state_on_stream(), on the first flip after
the commit. A stream created by a modeset is therefore validated as
if FreeSync were off. On resume, dm_destroy_cached_state() drops the
streams and forces a modeset, so the resumed state is validated
without FreeSync.
Set allow_freesync in amdgpu_dm_get_freesync_config_for_crtc(), which
atomic check calls for every active CRTC and which already writes
ignore_msa_timing_param to the stream. It uses vrr_supported, the
condition the flip-time value is derived from. With this change the
same TV keeps SubVP disabled across "rtcwake -m mem".
On this machine SubVP is also what exposes the single-frame scanout
corruption reported in the thread linked below, so the FreeSync
setting stopped working as a workaround after every suspend.

v2:
- Rebased onto amd-staging-drm-next, where vrr_supported also depends
on vrr_timing_valid, so v1 no longer applied there. No functional
change.
- Added Tested-by from Josh Kasten, who ran v2 on next-20261023 (the
file is the same there as in amd-staging-drm-next) and saw SubVP
stay disabled across rtcwake with FreeSync enabled.
