Move the DPCD read to the top and check for an interrupt from the sink to catch
Displayport automated testing requests necessary to support Displayport compliance
testing. The checks for active connectors and link status are moved below the
check for the interrupt.
Why exactly is this needed?
The main reason for doing this is to make sure that a test request isn't missed. Checking for the status of the encoder/crtc isn't necessary for some test cases (AUX channel tests are one example) and without moving the check for the interrupt, these tests may not execute if one of those checks fails. Additionally, if reading the DPCD fails, regardless of whether or not testing is happening, there's no way to train the link since configurations and status can't be read, nor can link training parameters be written.


Adds a check at the top to verify that the device is connected. This is necessary
for DP compliance testing to ensure that test requests are captured and acknowledged.
Why exactly? Can you please describe in terms of how the code is
executed in each case and what is missing?
This patch is actually both a bug fix and a component of compliance testing. Because HPD events are received both on connect and disconnect actions, it's vital that we don't try and train the link when we're transitioning from connected->disconnected. That results in errors and warning in the logs from failed AUX transactions and can trigger the WARN for the check of !base.crtc. By making the check at the beginning to see if the connection is truly active, those problems are avoided and testing / link training will only be attempted when there is a valid Displayport connection.

Since there appears to be 2 different changes, shouldn't this patch be
split into 2 different patches?
It can be split into two if that will make it easier to upstream. The changes are separate but related, which is why I grouped them into a single patch.

If a test request is present during a connected->disconnected transition,
the test code will attempt to execute even though the connection has been disabled,
resulting in a faied test.

Bikeshed: I don't see the reason for the comment above :)

Other than that, the patch looks fine. Let's see what PRTS will say about it.

Fair enough. Comment deleted. :) Fix will be in patch V3. The above responses to your questions were also included in the patch notes for further explanation of this patch.
