From: Stephen Chandler Paul <cpaul@xxxxxxxxxx> HPD signals on DVI ports can be fired off before the pins required for DDC probing actually make contact, due to the pins for HPD making contact first. This results in a HPD signal being asserted but DDC probing failing, resulting in hotplugging occasionally failing. This is somewhat rare on most cards (depending on what angle you plug the DVI connector in), but on some cards it happens constantly. The Radeon R5 on the machine used for testing this patch for instance, runs into this issue just about every time I try to hotplug a DVI monitor and as a result hotplugging almost never works. Rescheduling the hotplug work for a second when we run into an HPD signal with a failing DDC probe usually gives enough time for the rest of the connector's pins to make contact, and fixes this issue. Signed-off-by: Stephen Chandler Paul <cpaul@xxxxxxxxxx> --- So this one has kind of been a tough sell with Jerome, mostly because it's somewhat of a hack. Unfortunately however I've managed to find machines where DVI hotplugging literally doesn't work without a patch like this. We've already tried a couple of ways of handling the situation of retriggering ddc probes: * Trying the DDC probe in the radeon_dvi_detect() function multiple times. * Trying to reschedule the hotplug_work task whenever DDC probing fails on DVI but we got a hpd signal (this ended up being a much more complicated patch then anticipated) * Doing what we do right now, which is just triggering userspace to rescan all the ports when the hpd signal is asserted by the DVI port but there's no DDC probe, and repeating until at least a second passes. All of these actually work, but I guess it's a question of which one is less of a hack. If anyone here can think of a cleaner way of handling this feel free to let me know. drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon.h | 3 +++ drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon_connectors.c | 20 +++++++++++++++++--- drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon_irq_kms.c | 2 ++ 3 files changed, 22 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon.h b/drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon.h index b6cbd81..d63f0fe 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon.h +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon.h @@ -2460,6 +2460,9 @@ struct radeon_device { /* amdkfd interface */ struct kfd_dev *kfd; + /* last time we received an hpd signal */ + unsigned long hpd_time; + struct mutex mn_lock; DECLARE_HASHTABLE(mn_hash, 7); }; diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon_connectors.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon_connectors.c index 5a2cafb..4ee9440 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon_connectors.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon_connectors.c @@ -1228,19 +1228,33 @@ radeon_dvi_detect(struct drm_connector *connector, bool force) const struct drm_encoder_helper_funcs *encoder_funcs; int i, r; enum drm_connector_status ret = connector_status_disconnected; - bool dret = false, broken_edid = false; + bool dret = false, broken_edid = false, hpd_unchanged; r = pm_runtime_get_sync(connector->dev->dev); if (r < 0) return connector_status_disconnected; - if (!force && radeon_check_hpd_status_unchanged(connector)) { + hpd_unchanged = radeon_check_hpd_status_unchanged(connector); + if (!force && hpd_unchanged) { ret = connector->status; goto exit; } - if (radeon_connector->ddc_bus) + if (radeon_connector->ddc_bus) { dret = radeon_ddc_probe(radeon_connector, false); + + /* Sometimes the pins required for the DDC probe on DVI + * connectors don't make contact at the same time that the ones + * for HPD do.
