git bisect log
I did a git bisect on the kernel and here's what it came up with. I'm compiling a current mainline kernel with this commit reverted to see if that fixes the issue for me. I also noticed a new Lenovo UEFI with "(New) Revert VBIOS to 1046." in the changes, so I'll try that too and see if it has any effect. # first bad commit: [fcc8a22cc9053a8d1bbb94833ec103cd5961feef] drm/edid: Set YQ bits in the AVI infoframe according to CEA-861-F commit fcc8a22cc9053a8d1bbb94833ec103cd5961feef Author: Ville Syrjälä <ville.syrjala@linux.intel.com> Date: Wed Jan 11 14:57:25 2017 +0200 drm/edid: Set YQ bits in the AVI infoframe according to CEA-861-F CEA-861-F tells us: "When transmitting any RGB colorimetry, the Source should set the YQ-field to match the RGB Quantization Range being transmitted (e.g., when Limited Range RGB, set YQ=0 or when Full Range RGB, set YQ=1) and the Sink shall ignore the YQ-field." So let's go ahead and do that. Perhaps there are sinks that don't ignore the YQ as they should for RGB? I wasn't able to find similar text in CEA-861-E, so it would seem to be a fairly "recent" addition.

Thanks for the update, if more information is required for this case it would be commented below. Fixed in drm-misc-fixes. commit 9271c0ca573e02a360b636ecd8cb408852f4e9f6 Author: Ville Syrjälä <ville.syrjala@linux.intel.com> Date: Wed Nov 8 17:25:04 2017 +0200 drm/edid: Don't send non-zero YQ in AVI infoframe for HDMI 1.x sinks Hello Neil, could you confirm that comment 6 fixed it? Thank you. |

Created attachment 132331 [details] configs, dmesg w/ drm.debug=0xe, EDIDs, fb0 sysfs, inxi, Xorg.0.log, picture of screen I have a Thinkpad X270 with an i7 7500U / Intel HD Graphics 620, running Fedora 25, Mint, and Xubuntu (attachments are from Xubuntu.) I had been using a 26" Vizio E261VA TV over HDMI as an external monitor for a few months without any issues, but after upgrading to any kernel >= 4.11.0-rc1, the display becomes very pixelated and text is almost unreadable. On 4.10 it looks fine. One thing I noticed was that the "mode" for the fb0 device is now set to "U:1360x768p-0". In the working kernel it's "U:1920x1080p-0". The issue only happens over HDMI; the picture still looks fine if I use a USB-C -> VGA adapter. The native resolution for this TV is 1360x768, which is the resolution I run it at, and the laptop screen is running at 1920x1080. I have tried uninstalling the Xorg intel driver but it didn't make a difference. I have also tried booting the kernel with the parameter video=HDMI-A-2:1920x1080M@60. That will change the framebuffer mode back to what it was in 4.10, but I still can't seem to get the pixelation to go away. I tried to force the EDID from VGA using drm_kms_helper but it didn't help either. I built a kernel from cgit.freedesktop.org/drm-tip today (6/28/17) and I still see the issue. Attached the configs I am using for 4.10 and the drm-tip kernel. I noticed quite a few changes in the logs for 4.11.0-rc1 involving drm/i915, framebuffers, EDID, and HDMI, so I assume this has something to do with that. I'm not 100% sure it involves the framebuffer, but the resolution change caught my eye. I see the pixelation before X even starts, while the startup checks are running down the screen. Please let me know if I can provide any other info. Thanks!
