kernel5.3-drm.debug=0xe

At my wits end on this bug. My bisecting have proven useless and I wanted to get some help from you guys. Several reverted regressions reproduce the same behavior along the way and I have spent hours sifting and booting to see where it's at.

The short of it is that the monitor in my HP laptop boots to a 640x480 modeline on mainline kernels newer than 4.17-rc3.
Would not be a colossal problem, as I can just force a working modeline from userspace, if it didn't mean without the modeset the bridge utterly scrambles the display by lining up 640x480 as a wrapping 2D length in the very top of my screen as a jumble of colors.

The issue is GPU independent but is AMD related. Both W7170M and WX7100 affected.
Somewhere after kernel 4.17-rc3 the the rodeo begins.
My dmesg is probably going to be much much more helpful when it comes to debugging and I will GLADLY test any kernel patches if you need more info & detailed kernel/ custom dmesg dumps.

Notable stuff in the dump:

Can you use git bisect the issue and find the exact commit that broke it or narrow down when the regression happened?  E.g., working in 4.17-rc3 and broken in 4.17-rc4?

I have two commits that break my EDID reading and cause the exact same issue so far.

bisected the mainline to try and find the issue, trailed into your drm-next git...

The first commit I found that broke my EDID read:
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/linux/commit/?h=amd-staging-drm-next&id=8a61bc085ffab3071c59efcbeff4044c034e7490
Was later reverted.

Followed more commits after this one down a branch and into here...
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git/commit/?h=x86-urgent-for-linus&id=bd4caed47a19f25fe8674344ea06d469c27ac314

Surprisingly, swapping out the memory allocs actually breaks the EDID read in this commit/ branch too. I know for a fact Ubuntu's old kernel 4.18 reverted this specific and the treewide memory allocation change, which worked!? I stopped about here, my head was starting to spin as to why THAT would do anything.

I am ready and able to fork over any binary/parameter/debug dumps to help solve this.

Kernel 4.19 Gentoo stock

Any idea why dc_conn_log_hex_linux is so short?
Other people's connectors seem to get lots of hex data over the debug drop here mine is nearly completely empty!
Comment 7 Babblebones 2019-11-09 15:41:54 UTC
The EDID seems the have some kind of proprietary tag block inbetween the last and middle detailed modes.

Would this break parsing in more recent kernels? edid-decode seems to say that this is breaks the standard.
