It can sleep for a second. And the wording "It takes some delay (ex, 100 ~ 500 msec) to get the HPD signal with some monitors" makes it sound like some kind of a hack... > > The docs mention debounce once: > > https://docs.amd.com/r/en-US/pg299-v-dp-txss1/Hot-Plug-Detection Are you sure this is the right document? This seems to be documentation for [1]. Is that instantiated as a hard block on the ZynqMP? [1] https://www.xilinx.com/products/intellectual-property/ef-di-displayport.html > But it's not immediately obvious what the SW must do and what's done by the HW. Debounce is not mentioned later, e.g. in the HPD Event Handling. But if debounce is needed, wouldn't it be perhaps in a few milliseconds, instead of hundreds of milliseconds... Well, the DP spec says | If the HPD is the result of a new device being connected, either | directly to the Source device (signaled by a long HPD), –or– downstream | of a Branch device (indicated by incrementing the DFP_COUNT field value | in the DOWN_STREAM_PORT_COUNT register (DPCD 00007h[3:0]) and signaled | by an IRQ_HPD pulse), the Source device shall read the new DisplayID or | legacy EDID that has been made available to it to ensure that content | being transmitted over the link is able to be properly received and | rendered. | | Informative Note: If the HPD signal toggling (or bouncing) is the | result of the Hot Unplug followed by Hot Plug of a | cable-connector assembly, the HPD signal is likely | to remain unstable during the de-bouncing period, | which is in the order of tens of milliseconds. The | Source device may either check the HPD signal’s | stability before initiating an AUX read transaction, | –or– immediately initiate the AUX read transaction | after each HPD rising edge. So a 100 ms delay seems plausible for some monitors. That said, maybe we can just skip this and always read the DPCD. > zynqmp_dp_bridge_detect() is used for drm_bridge_funcs.detect(), and if the cable is not connected, it'll sleep for 1 second (probably more) until returning not connected.

Anything involving AUX shouldn't been in an IRQ, since zynqmp_dp_aux_transfer will retry for up to 50ms by default. >>> Do we need to handle interrupts while either delayed work is being done? >> >> Probably not. >> >>> If we do need a delayed work, would just one work be enough which >>> handles both HPD_EVENT and HPD_IRQ, instead of two? >> >> Maybe, but then we need to determine which pending events we need to >> handle.

Yeah, but we can use a mutex for this which means there is not too much interesting going on. --Sean
