Hi,
HDMI is broken again in 5.14-rc1 (of course i have applied my patch [1])
now i've got a NULL pointer dereference
[ 21.883641] PC is at mtk_dpi_bridge_atomic_check+0x38/0x78
[ 21.889158] LR is at drm_atomic_bridge_chain_check+0x150/0x30c
"dpi" is not set correctly in mtk_dpi_bridge_atomic_check
this function is new since
commit ec8747c52434b69cea2b18068e72f051e23d3839
drm/mediatek: dpi: Add bus format negotiation
i do not see where bridge->driver_private is set, but in other function it is solved like this:
bridge_to_dpi(bridge)
this fixes the NULL-pointer dereference, and system starts to xserver, but i do not see fbcon...it looks like drm is now initialized later (~ at login prompt on serial console). i stopped lightdm and still do not see loginprompt on hdmi, so it looks like fbcon is broken
send out fix for NULL issue, but fbcon ist still unclear...but i see this in dmesg:
dmesg | grep -i fbcon
[ 0.000000] Kernel command line: root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rw rootwait earlyprintk console=ttyS0,115200 video=1280x1024 console=tty1 fbcon=map:0
[ 0.000000] Unknown command line parameters: fbcon=map:0
[ 7.040167] fbcon=map:0
and no framebuffer/fb0 in dmesg
regards Frank
