This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled drm/atomic-helper: relax unregistered connector check to the 6.1-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: drm-atomic-helper-relax-unregistered-connector-check.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.1 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 2b7947bd32e243c52870d54141d3b4ea6775e63d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Simon Ser <contact@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 5 Oct 2023 13:16:32 +0000 Subject: drm/atomic-helper: relax unregistered connector check MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit From: Simon Ser <contact@xxxxxxxxxxx> commit 2b7947bd32e243c52870d54141d3b4ea6775e63d upstream. The driver might pull connectors which weren't submitted by user-space into the atomic state. For instance, intel_dp_mst_atomic_master_trans_check() pulls in connectors sharing the same DP-MST stream. However, if the connector is unregistered, this later fails with: [ 559.425658] i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm:drm_atomic_helper_check_modeset] [CONNECTOR:378:DP-7] is not registered Skip the unregistered connector check to allow user-space to turn off connectors one-by-one.
