Subject: [PATCH v2 5/8] drm/vc4: hdmi: Propagate -EDEADLK to the top level
Date: Tue, 13 Oct 2026 01:37:45 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261013-vc4-common-scramb-v2-5-a41d15e131ad@collabora.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261013-vc4-common-scramb-v2-0-a41d15e131ad@collabora.com>
drm_connector_helper_funcs.detect_ctx() is expected to propagate
-EDEADLK so that context owners, e.g. drm_helper_probe_detect_ctx(), can
perform the required backoff and retry.
vc4_hdmi_handle_hotplug() instead runs its own retry loop and calls
drm_modeset_backoff() on an acquire context it does not own. This drops
all locks in the context, including connection_mutex held by the core.
Drop the local retry logic and propagate -EDEADLK to the caller instead.
This aligns VC4 with the expected detect_ctx() semantics.
Acked-by: Maxime Ripard <mripard@kernel.org>
