Wait time for HW syncpt to reach threshold is tuned to work for all=20 frame rates. So if increment doesn't happen by then, its definitely=20 missed event. In case of missed HW event corresponding to syncpt condition, hw syncpt=20 increment does not happen and driver increments it on timeout. As there is not API to equialize max with min incase of timeout/reset,=20 incrementing HW syncpt for timed out event. syncpt cached value gets updated during syncpt wait when it loads from=20 HW syncpt. As syncpt condition is already triggered, without compensating timeout=20 events or leaving syncpt max and hw syncpt in non synchronized state for=20 missed events, subsequent streamings will all timeout even on real events.
