So we just had some discussions over on IRC and at about the hotplug issue and came up with similar ideas: https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dri-devel/2019-May/217408.html The conclusions of these discussions so far would be to have a more or less fine grain of uevent reporting depending on what happened. The point is that we need to cover different cases: - one or more properties changed; - the connector status changed; - something else about the connector changed (e.g. EDID/modes) For the first case, we can send out: HOTPLUG=1 CONNECTOR=<id> PROPERTY=<id> and no reprobe is required. For the second one, something like: HOTPLUG=1 CONNECTOR=<id> STATUS=Connected/Disconnected and a connector probe is needed for connected, but not for disconnected; For the third one, we can only indicate the connector: HOTPLUG=1 CONNECTOR=<id> and a reprobe of the connector is always needed Then we still have the legacy case: HOTPLUG=1 where userspace is expected to reprobe all the connectors. I think this would deserve to be a separate series on its own. So I am proposing to take this one off your plate and come up with another seres implementing this proposal. What do you think?
