I guess you mean MIPI DSI, and yes I agree, more generally it usually(!) doesn't make sense for any setup with fixed display panel. On the other hand there are DSI/HDMI or DSI/DP adapters which usually have EDID reading logic. And the concept makes sense for most connectors accepting external displays: HDMI, DP, MHL, VGA... > > b) For something with an external connector (DP and HDMI) you don't > even know they're inserted unless the EDID is ready to read (these > devices are, essentially, always powered). Usually there are two elements which are not the same: 1. HotPlug signal/wire. 2. EDID reading logic. The logic responsible for reading EDID needs to be enabled only for time required for EDID reading :) So it's power state often must be controlled explicitly by the bridge driver. So even if in many cases pre_enable powers on the logic for EDID reading it does not make it the rule, so I must step back from my claim that it is up to caller :) > > So I started off trying to do this in the core for eDP, but then it > wasn't completely clear how to write this code in a way that was super > generic.

Ok, pre_enable should power on the chip, but for performing initialization of video transport layer. Assumption it will power on EDID logic is incorrect, so my claim seems wrong, but also this patch looks incorrect :) In general only device containing EDID logic knows how to power it up. Since I do not know your particular case I can propose few possible ways to investigate: - call bridge.next->get_modes - you leave responsibility for powering up to the downstream device. - ddc driver on i2c request should power up the panel - seems also correct, Regards Andrzej > > 2.
