Yeah. Actually just the disp2/pipe-a well is needed, so even the port domains are pointless but I was feeling lazy when I came up with the hack. I (or someone) should also do some tests on vlv/chv to see which power wells are actually needed for AUX. disp2d/pipe-a obviously just for the registers, but then I'm not sure if the phy cmnlane well is needed. On chv the docs do say that the AUX stuff is in the common lane, but IIRC on vlv it was said to be more of a separate lane. Anyway would be nice to know for sure. -- Ville Syrjälä Intel OTC _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
