[PATCH] drm/i915: Retry reading DPCD when bogus values are read

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

 



I got kernel WARNINGs frequently on Haswell laptops complaining about
invalid max DP link bw.  With drm.debug=0x0e, it turned out that the
obtained DPCD is utterly bogus when it happens:
  [drm:intel_dp_get_dpcd], DPCD: 4d 4d 4d 4d 4d 4d 4d 4d 4d 4d 4d 4d 4d 4d 4d

This seems happening intermittently without plug state changes and
even after the first few reads succeeded.  As a workaround, add a
sanity check for such bogus values and retry reading if it hits.
