According to the eDP spec, when the count field in TEST_SINK_MISC increments then the six bytes of sink CRC information in the DPCD should be valid. Unfortunately, this doesn't seem to be the case on some panels, and as a result we get some incorrect and inconsistent values from the sink CRC DPCD locations at times. This problem exhibits itself more on faster processors (relative failure rates HSW < SKL < KBL.) In order to try and account for this, we try a lot harder to read the sink CRC until we get consistent values twice in a row before returning what we read and delay for a time before trying to read. We still see some occasional failures, but reading the sink CRC is much more reliable, particularly on SKL, with these changes than without. v2: * Reduce number of retries when reading the sink CRC (Jani) * Refactor to minimize changes to the code (Jani) * Rebase v3: * Rebase v4: * Switch from do-while to for loop when reading CRC values (Jani) * Rebase v5: * Checkpatch cleanup and commit message tweaks * Rebase Cc: Rodrigo Vivi <rodrigo.vivi@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Paulo Zanoni <paulo.r.zanoni@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Jani Nikula <jani.nikula@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Jim Bride <jim.bride@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_dp.c | 32 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++--- 1 file changed, 29 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_dp.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_dp.c index 76c8a0b..b64757c 100644 --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_dp.c +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_dp.c @@ -3906,6 +3906,10 @@ int intel_dp_sink_crc(struct intel_dp *intel_dp, u8 *crc) u8 buf; int count, ret; int attempts = 6; + u8 old_crc[6]; + + if (crc == NULL) + return -ENOMEM; ret = intel_dp_sink_crc_start(intel_dp); if (ret) @@ -3929,11 +3933,33 @@ int intel_dp_sink_crc(struct intel_dp *intel_dp, u8 *crc) goto stop; } - if (drm_dp_dpcd_read(&intel_dp->aux, DP_TEST_CRC_R_CR, crc, 6) < 0) { - ret = -EIO; - goto stop; + /* + * Sometimes it takes a while for the "real" CRC values to land in + * the DPCD, so try several times until we get two reads in a row + * that are the same.
