[PATCH 3/4] drm/msm/a6xx: Program the PDC sequencer on Adreno 620

From: Ishu Brar via B4 Relay

Date: Fri Oct 16 2026 - 08:59:55 EST


From: Ishu Brar <patches@xxxxxxx>

Unlike the rest of the A650 family, the A620 does not get its PDC set up
by AOP (the downstream devicetree has no pdc_in_aop for it). Without the
sequence, the RSC never acks the second power-up ("Unable to power on
the GPU RSC") and the device hangs.

Program the sequence from the driver, taking the xo, mx and cx resource
addresses from cmd-db instead of the hardcoded ones.
