Hi Daniel,

That patch was already merged:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/intel-gfx/2015-July/071142.html

For SKL, the above patch helped in getting the correct ISR bits set.
One option is to enable the HDMI optimization from VLV onwards.
I don't have an ivb machine to try out the issue.

ivb is simple the machine I have here, but when we tried this the last
time around we had reports for all platforms (your patch still doesn't
cite the relevant sha1 btw). I think there are 3 possible explanations:

Yes, I don't know which were those patches and how to find them..

a) we do something wrong with hpd handling on these platforms. That seems
to be the explanation you favour (with the gen >= 7 checks and all that),
but I think it's very unlikely: On each platform where we had reports of
hpd being broken there was also machines where hpd works perfectly fine.

Not sure, I will find one ivb system and try on that.

b) There's broken HDMI (or DVI) sinks out there. If that's the case we can
never merge your patch.
I doubt this because we have tested these patches with many sinks in the past with VLV/CHV.

c) There's something in vbt or somewhere else that tells the windows
driver whether using hpd or not is ok (and the hpd problem is actually an
issue with certain OEM machines ...).

No, nothing like that.

I hoped that with your hpd handling fix we'd have some indication that our
hpd troubles are of type a). But since I tested with your patch that
didn't work out.

And until we have some evidence that our hpd troubles aren't type b) I
really don't want to merge any patch which relies upon hpd bits for hdmi.

I will try on ivb.

This series adds some optimization related to reading of edid only
when required and when live status says so.
The comments in the patches explain more.

This series breaks my funky ivb machine with the broken hpd bits: When I unplug the screen the system never invalidates the edid and so never notices that it's gone.

Now iirc you've discovered an issue in our hpd irq handler which can cause lost hpd bits, but that patch isn't in this series. And iirc I asked you to resend everything since that hw fix also wasn't in the last series. And I can't find it any more. Did I just dream about this other patch to fix hpd on big core?

Thanks, Daniel

v2:
    Some refactoring is with this series.

    Also, right now this is done for platforms gen7 and above because we
    couldn't test with older platforms. For newer platforms it works
    reliably.

    For HPD and live status to work on SKL, following patch is required:
    "drm/i915: Handle HPD when it has actually occurred"

Shashank Sharma (2):
   drm/i915: add attached connector to hdmi container
   drm/i915: Add HDMI probe function

   drm/i915: Check live status before reading edid
