Re: force DP lane count on Broadwell platform

Thanks Jani

A customer of mine decided to work with  a modified DP port with only two lanes and is facing issues.
I guess modifying the suggested values might be useful at O.S leve, however I was wondering if modifyint the register that I mentioned earlier in the VBIOS would accomplish the same for the pre-OS stage.

Best Regards,
Adolfo Sanchez

You should probably look at intel_ddi_init() in intel_ddi.c, and set intel_dig_port->max_lanes to 2. Then it should limit the source to two lanes wherever it's needed.

Of course, I should ask you why you need this; maybe you should be asking a different question. ;)

BR,
Jani.
