Bisecting a DRM issue in merged commits

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



Somewhere between Linux 5.6 and Linux 5.7, one of the displays attached
to my Dell TB16 dock stopped working.  (X appears to think that it's
working, based on the output of xrandr, but it doesn't actually display
anything.)

I've bisect the mainline kernel, and identified the following "bad"
commit:

commit ff36e78fdb251b9fa65028554689806961e011eb
Merge: 143d9c3e7b6a 1b245ec5b685

    Merge drm/drm-next into drm-intel-next-queued

    Some DSI and VBT pending patches from Hans will apply
    cleanly and with less ugly conflicts if they are rebuilt
    on top of other patches that recently landed on drm-next.

    Reference: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/70952/
    Cc: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@xxxxxxxxxx>
    Signed-off-by: Rodrigo Vivi <rodrigo.vivi@xxxxxxxxx

However, this doesn't seem to actually be a single commit, and I'm not
sufficiently familiar with git to know how to proceed.

Any pointers on how to get a useful result out of git bisect would be
greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
