Subject: [PATCH 0/2] drm/client: Clear stale cmdline modes before the 1024x768 clone pass
Date: Sat, 31 Oct 2026 21:56:58 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261031215700.1077873-1-hugo@hsal.es> (raw)
drm_client_target_cloned() first tries to clone with the mode each
connector got from the kernel's video= option, then falls back to
1024x768 on every connector. The fallback keeps the modes the first
pass left behind, so a connector that has a video= mode set and no
1024x768 mode can make it report a clone with modes that differ. On a
single-CRTC device one connector then gets no CRTC
Patch 1 frees those modes before the fallback. Patch 2 adds a KUnit
test that fails without it
Sashiko flagged this while reviewing my fbdev probe series [1]. I
haven't hit it on hardware: it needs a single-CRTC device with two
connected outputs and video= set on only some of them, and it only shows
on the fbdev console. The KUnit test reproduces it, but how often it
happens on real systems is unconfirmed
