DRM KMS polling of connections providing errant EDID responses, or
polling of "connectors" that have chips responding on DDC I2C bus
address 0xA0/0xA1 with no actual physical connector nor EDID EEPROM,
will create perpetual noise in dmesg and the system log every 10
seconds. Currently the user has apparently little recourse to silence
these messages aside from replacing the offending cable, monitor, or
graphics adapter. That recourse is impossible for an unused DVI-D
"connector" of an internal graphics processor on a motherboard that
provides no physical DVI-D connector.
This change allows the root user to disable (and re-enable) DRM KMS
connector polling on a per connector basis via sysfs, like so:
# cat /sys/class/drm/card0/card0-DVI-D-1/polled
[hotplug_detectable] connect disconnect
# echo > /sys/class/drm/card0/card0-DVI-D-1/polled
# cat /sys/class/drm/card0/card0-DVI-D-1/polled
hotplug_detectable connect disconnect
# echo " connect hotplug_detectable " > \
/sys/class/drm/card0/card0-DVI-D-1/polled
# cat /sys/class/drm/card0/card0-DVI-D-1/polled
[hotplug_detectable] [connect] disconnect
# echo > /sys/class/drm/card0/card0-DVI-D-1/polled
# cat /sys/class/drm/card0/card0-DVI-D-1/polled
hotplug_detectable connect disconnect
with the enabled poll types for the connector denoted in brackets: [].
This allows the root user to silence DRM KMS log spam for locally known
uncorrectable conditions.
