[PATCH] drm/i915/hdmi: preserve cached EDID on DDC failure when connector is forced

[PATCH] drm/i915/hdmi: preserve cached EDID on DDC failure when connector is forced

[Aman Sharma]

When an HDMI connector is forced enabled (e.g. via video=HDMI-A-1:e for
laptop clamshell operation) and the external monitor enters DPMS standby,
some monitors (such as the BenQ GW2790Q) power down their internal DDC/I2C
controller, causing SCDC/EDID reads to fail with -ENXIO (-6).

Currently, intel_hdmi_force() unconditionally calls intel_hdmi_unset_edid()
before calling intel_hdmi_set_edid(). When drm_edid_read_ddc() returns NULL
during monitor standby, the connector's cached detect_edid is wiped out and
drm_helper_probe_single_connector_modes() falls back to the 1024x768 VESA
no-EDID mode. When the monitor wakes back up, because the connector status
remained forced to connector_status_connected, no hotplug state transition
occurs and the display remains stuck at 1024x768 until a manual mode probe
(such as toggling the laptop lid) is triggered.

Fix this by retaining the previously cached detect_edid when a DDC read
fails on a forced-on connector. When the monitor is awake or a different
monitor is plugged in, drm_edid_read_ddc() succeeds and replaces the
cached EDID normally.

[PATCH v2] drm/i915/hdmi: preserve cached EDID on DDC failure when connector is forced

[Aman Sharma]

When an HDMI connector is forced enabled (e.g. via video=HDMI-A-1:e for
laptop clamshell operation) and the external monitor enters DPMS standby,
some monitors (such as the BenQ GW2790Q) power down their internal DDC/I2C
controller, causing SCDC/EDID reads to fail with -ENXIO (-6).

Currently, intel_hdmi_detect() and intel_hdmi_force() unconditionally call
intel_hdmi_unset_edid() before calling intel_hdmi_set_edid(). When
drm_edid_read_ddc() returns NULL during monitor standby, the connector's
cached detect_edid is wiped out and
drm_helper_probe_single_connector_modes() falls back to the 1024x768 VESA
no-EDID mode. When the monitor wakes back up, because the connector status
remained forced to connector_status_connected, no hotplug state transition
occurs and the display remains stuck at 1024x768 until a manual mode probe
(such as toggling the laptop lid) is triggered.

Fix this by moving intel_hdmi_unset_edid() into intel_hdmi_set_edid() after
checking whether a forced connector already has a valid cached EDID
(detect_edid and edid_blob_ptr) when DDC fails, and only clearing
detect_edid on Gen11+ digital port disconnect when the connector is not
forced. When the monitor is awake or a different monitor is plugged in,
drm_edid_read_ddc() succeeds, resets the previous EDID and dp_dual_mode
state via intel_hdmi_unset_edid(), and updates the connector with the new
EDID.

v2:
- Move intel_hdmi_unset_edid() into intel_hdmi_set_edid() so hotplug
  detection via intel_hdmi_detect() also preserves the cached EDID on
  forced connectors and resets dp_dual_mode when updating EDID.
- Clear detect_edid on Gen11+ disconnect when the connector is unforced,
  and verify edid_blob_ptr is non-NULL before retaining detect_edid.

[PATCH v3] drm/i915/hdmi: preserve cached EDID on DDC failure when connector is forced

[Aman Sharma]

When an HDMI connector is forced enabled (e.g. via video=HDMI-A-1:e for
laptop clamshell operation) and the external monitor enters DPMS standby,
some monitors (such as the BenQ GW2790Q) power down their internal DDC/I2C
controller, causing SCDC/EDID reads to fail with -ENXIO (-6).

Currently, intel_hdmi_detect() and intel_hdmi_force() unconditionally call
intel_hdmi_unset_edid() before calling intel_hdmi_set_edid(). When
drm_edid_read_ddc() returns NULL during monitor standby, the connector's
cached detect_edid is wiped out and
drm_helper_probe_single_connector_modes() falls back to the 1024x768 VESA
no-EDID mode. When the monitor wakes back up, because the connector status
remained forced to connector_status_connected, no hotplug state transition
occurs and the display remains stuck at 1024x768 until a manual mode probe
(such as toggling the laptop lid) is triggered.

Fix this by moving intel_hdmi_unset_edid() into intel_hdmi_set_edid() after
checking whether a forced-on connector (DRM_FORCE_ON or
DRM_FORCE_ON_DIGITAL) already has a valid cached EDID (detect_edid and
edid_blob_ptr) when DDC fails, and preserving connector_status_connected
on Gen11+ digital port disconnect when a forced-on connector has a cached
EDID. When the monitor is awake or a different monitor is plugged in,
drm_edid_read_ddc() succeeds, resets the previous EDID and dp_dual_mode
state via intel_hdmi_unset_edid(), and updates the connector with the new
EDID.

v3:
- Explicitly check for DRM_FORCE_ON / DRM_FORCE_ON_DIGITAL so DRM_FORCE_OFF
  still clears the cached EDID as expected.
- Report connector_status_connected on Gen11+ disconnect when a forced-on
  connector retains its cached EDID, and jump to out in
  intel_hdmi_set_edid() so CEC physical address remains valid and
  drm_helper_probe_detect_ctx() does not increment epoch_counter on
  standby HPD pulses.

v2:
- Move intel_hdmi_unset_edid() into intel_hdmi_set_edid() so hotplug
  detection via intel_hdmi_detect() also preserves the cached EDID on
  forced connectors and resets dp_dual_mode when updating EDID.
- Clear detect_edid on Gen11+ disconnect when the connector is unforced,
  and verify edid_blob_ptr is non-NULL before retaining detect_edid.
