From 4f4a8185011773f7520d9916c6857db946e7f9d1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Shashank Sharma Date: Thu, 21 Apr 2016 16:48:32 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] drm/i915: Fake HDMI live status MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit This patch does the following: - Fakes live status of HDMI as connected (even if that's not). While testing certain (monitor + cable) combinations with various intel platforms, it seems that live status register doesn't work reliably on some older devices. So limit the live_status check for HDMI detection, only for platforms from gen7 onwards. V2: restrict faking live_status to certain platforms V3: (Ville) - keep the debug message for !live_status case - fix indentation of comment - remove "warning" from the debug message (Jani) - Change format of fix details in the commit message Fixes: 237ed86c693d ("drm/i915: Check live status before reading edid") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # v4.4 Suggested-by: Ville Syrjala Signed-off-by: Shashank Sharma Link: http://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/1461237606-16491-1-git-send-email-shashank.sharma@intel.com Signed-off-by: Ville Syrjälä --- drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_hdmi.c | 12 ++++++++++-- 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_hdmi.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_hdmi.c index b199ede08f72..2cdab73046f8 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_hdmi.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_hdmi.c @@ -1412,8 +1412,16 @@ intel_hdmi_detect(struct drm_connector *connector, bool force) hdmi_to_dig_port(intel_hdmi)); } - if (!live_status) - DRM_DEBUG_KMS("Live status not up!"); + if (!live_status) { + DRM_DEBUG_KMS("HDMI live status down\n"); + /* + * Live status register is not reliable on all intel platforms. + * So consider live_status only for certain platforms, for + * others, read EDID to determine presence of sink. + */ + if (INTEL_INFO(dev_priv)->gen < 7 || IS_IVYBRIDGE(dev_priv)) + live_status = true; + } intel_hdmi_unset_edid(connector); -- 2.30.2
