[PATCH v2 1/6] drm/i915/dp_link_training: Add a final failing state to link training fallback

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Instead of silently giving up when all link-training fallback values are
exhausted, this patch modifies the fallback's failure branch to reduces
both max_link_lane_count and max_link_rate to zero (0) and continues to
emit uevents until userspace stops attempting to modeset.

By doing so, we ensure the failing connector, which is in
link-status=Bad, has all its modes pruned (due to effectively having a
bandwidth of 0Gbps).

It is then the userspace's responsibility to ignore connectors with no
modes, even if they are marked as connected.
