Ok. Does anyone have a worry that these patches make the situation
worse for the DSI case than it was before? Afaics, if the DSI lanes
are not set up early enough by the DSI host, the driver would break
with and without these patches.

These do fix the driver for DRM_BRIDGE_ATTACH_NO_CONNECTOR and DPI, so
I'd like to merge these unless these cause a regression with the DSI
case.

1/2 looks good to me, go ahead and apply .

Isn't there any way for the second patch to move forward as well though?
The bridge device (under DPI to (e)DP mode) cannot really work without
it, and the patches have been pending idle for a long time. =)


My local patches still apply on top of 6.10-rc4, so I don't think this
ever happened. What's still holding up this long-pending fix (at least
for our devices)?

Neither of the patches contains Fixes tags. If the first patch fixes an
issue in previous kernels, please consider following the stable process.

If we are unsure about the second patch, please send the first patch
separately, adding proper tags.


Thanks Dmitry! I can send the patches again with the required fixes
tags (or just patch-1 if we cannot do anything about patch-2).

The problem with the second patch is that it get mixed reviews. I can
ack the first patch, but for the second one I'd need a confirmation from
somebody else. I'll go on and apply the first patch later today.


Thanks Dmitry!

However, would it be okay if I instead add another patch that makes 2
versions of the "tc_edp_bridge_funcs", say "tc_dpi_edp_bridge_funcs" and
"tc_dsi_edp_bridge_funcs", that have all the same function hooks except
for the .edid_read()?

The dsi edid_read() will remain the same, and Tomi's patch - patch 2/2 -
will only fix the dpi version of the edid_read()?

The bridge already has the capability to distinguish a DSI input from a
DPI input. This can be leveraged to decide which set of functions need
to be used without any major changes.

I'd prefer if somebody with the DSI setup can ack / test the second
patch.



Now that my DSI-DP setup works apparently without issue I could test patch 2.
Since my setup does not use DRM_BRIDGE_ATTACH_NO_CONNECTOR (running on
drivers/gpu/drm/mxsfb/lcdif_drv.c), I can only say
there is no regression.

Let me send a (non-tested) patch, switching to drm_bridge_connector,
then you can probably test both of them


I suppose [1] was that follow-up, just not leading to success, right?

Now, what's next? I'd love to see the regression we have for the IOT2050
devices finally fixed, even if it now only requires a short downstream
patch.

I have to say I don't remember the details for this anymore, but half a year ago I said:

Afaics, if the DSI lanes are not set up early enough by the DSI host, the driver would break with and without these patches.

I'm not sure if that is correct or not. But if it is, then, afaiu, this (the second patch):

- Fixes the issue for the DPI-DP use case

- Doesn't cause issues for the DSI-DP use case without DRM_BRIDGE_ATTACH_NO_CONNECTOR (as per Alexander's test)

- Shouldn't cause (new) issues for the DSI-DP use case with DRM_BRIDGE_ATTACH_NO_CONNECTOR (as per my code review and guessing...)

The third point is somewhat concerning, of course, but do we have any setup with DSI-DP and DRM_BRIDGE_ATTACH_NO_CONNECTOR that works now? If not, maybe we can just ignore the possible issues, as this fixes problems on a setup we do have.
