Thanks for the patch. I think you're onto something, but I don't think
the patch is quite correct. That said, I'm not sure myself yet what
would be. ;)
Without the change, does intel_bios_is_valid_vbt() return true anyway?
No.
I.e. do you get "Found valid VBT in ACPI OpRegion (Mailbox #4)\n" in
log?
No.
If not, which of the debug messages in intel_bios_is_valid_vbt() do
you get?
I get "BDB incomplete", which is why I wrote this patch and believe
this patch is the right solution. With this patch everything works,
In the latter case, I suspect you'll end up with failure in intel_bios.c
with either "No MIPI config BDB found" or "No MIPI Sequence found,
parsing complete\n".
I don't remember the exact error, other then getting the
"BDB incomplete" error, and the i915 driver not listing the DSI connector
under /sys/class drm.
What makes you say: "but I don't think the patch is quite correct" why
should the code still keep the OPREGION_ASLE_EXT start as end of the
mailbox #4 vbt if there is the ASLE extenstion is not used ?
Ping, any progress on this ? I still believe my original patch is
correct. Eitherway I would like to see a fix for this, be it this fix
or something else, as a fix is necessary to get the LCD panel to work
on jumper ezpad mini3 tablets.

Hans

Note even with this fixed the panel still does not work with 4.9,
but it does with drm-intel-next-queued :) I believe the missing bit in
4.9 is the "drm/915: Parsing the missed out DTD fields from the VBT"
commit, but I've not verified this.
