It has been determined that the maximum resolution supported correctly by tilcdc rev1 on da850 SoCs is 800x600@60. Due to memory throughput constraints we must filter out higher modes.
Specify the max-bandwidth property for the display node for da850-based boards.

If this is effectively the max pixel clock that the device supports, then why not use the datasheet specified value of 37.5 MHz (Tc = 26.66 ns).

There's a separate property for max-pixelclock. This one is maximum pixels per second (which does sound almost the same), but the doc says it's about the particular memory interface + LCDC combination.
But this 'max-bandwidth' does sound quite odd, as the it really should be bytes, not pixels... Bad bindings again, which we just have to use.

DA850 supports both mDDR and DDR2, at slightly different speeds. So memory bandwidth limitation is also board specific. This should probably move to board file.
But I would like to know why using max-pixelclock is not good enough. Have experiments shown that LCDC on DA850 LCDK underflows even if pixel clock is below the datasheet recommendation?
Thanks, Sekhar

Hi Sekhar,
I've just tested 1024x768 at 37000 KHz - indeed seems like the underflows are gone as soon as we go below 37500 KHz. I'll submit a new patch using the max-pixelclock property.
Thanks, Bartosz Golaszewski
