Description Dick Marinus 2010-05-11 12:52:45 UTC
I'm using git tip sources for intel-drm, (lib)drm and xf86-video-intel. Everything seems to work but my display is black (backlight is on).

xrandr output:
# DISPLAY=:0.0 xrandr
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1920 x 1080, maximum 8192 x 8192
VGA1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)

HDMI2 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
HDMI3 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)

I can disable the backlight using xrandr --output DP1 --off

Comment 4 ykzhao 2010-05-12 00:35:59 UTC
From the info in comment #2 it seems that the eDP port is not enable. Not sure why it is not enabled.
Will you please add the boot option of "drm.debug=0x04" and attach the output of dmesg? (Had better compile the i915 as built-in kernel module).

It will be great if you can also try it on 2.6.33 kernel and see whether the issue also exists. Please also attach the output of dmesg, intel_reg_dumper on 2.6.33 kernel.

Please attach the vbios.dump on this box, which can be obtained by using the following command:
    1. echo 1 > /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/rom
    2. cat /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/rom >vbios.dump
    3. echo 0 > /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/rom

Please also attach the output of "xrandr -q --verbose" on this box.

Thanks.

drm-intel-next is probably broken on Ironlake now: bug#28046

Dick, is this regression on this machine?

I've first tried drm-intel-next and later "vanilla" 2.6.33 they both aren't working.

Ick.  His VBT reports 1.62GHz x1, which is definitely not going to hold
a 1920x1080 mode.  Guess we'll have to do this the hard way.


I really like to know what the "hard way" is :)

Yakui, some comment for your patch. 

We already have the first one from ajax. For second one, maybe we can try to convert the loop with

for (clock = max_clock; clock >= 0; clock--) {..}

instead of always using max_clock. I'm not sure about if power consumption will be higher with high clock? And hopefully we don't have regression on some eDP panels?

Thanks for the testing. It is good news that the eDP can work after applying the two debugs patches in comment #21/22. The next step is to identify which patch is required to solve the issue.

Hi, Dick
   Can you try the debug patch in comment #21/22 one by one and see whether the issue can be resolved? 

thanks.

Comment 28 Dick Marinus 2010-05-24 08:40:49 UTC
It still works when I only apply the first patch (from comment #21, 0001-set-the-DP-sync-polarity-according-to-the-desired-mo.patch). Do you want me to try the second patch (without the first)?

Power consumption will always be higher at higher frequencies.  And some panels may only go so fast.  So using the maximum clock frequency, if that is what you are doing, is probably not a great idea, if lower options are available.  Most built-in panels go at 60hz, FWIW.

Can you also try the second patch(without the first) and see whether it is helpful?

What I am doing only affects the link rate of display port. It has no effect on the clock for eDP panel. 
I agree with your concern. The power consumption will be higher when using the high link rate for display port.

I look at the bios code and it seems that the BIOS code uses the high link rate to calculate the link setting for the eDP. Maybe it is safe, which can assure that the system has the correct the link setting.

On the Dick's laptop: before applying the patches in comment #21/22, lane count is 2, and low link rate(1.62G) is used. The active pixel rate occupies nearly 96% bandwidth of the link.
    (137.7 * 18 / 8) / (162 * 2) = 95.6%
    
Let's wait for the Dick's test result and see whether the high link rate is helpful to solve the issue.

thanks.
Comment 32 Dick Marinus 2010-05-25 12:10:48 UTC
I've tried the second patch - try the max link rate (without the first) and I still have output. So both patches seem to work combined or seperate.

Please let me know when I need to do some other testing.

Hi, Dick
   Thank you for the nice testing. It seems that the both two patches in comment #21/22 can solve the issue. 
   In fact the patch similar to that in comment #21 is already pushed by Ajax and in drm-intel-next tree.

Hi, Dick
    From the register dump in comment #37 it seems that the eDP port is not enabled.

    Will you please double check whether the system can work well only when the patch in comment #21 is applied on 2.6.33 kernel?

thanks for the confirmation.
From the log it seems that the issue can be resolved when the patch in comment #21 is applied on the 2.6.33 kernel. And the similar patch is already shipped in drm-intel-next tree as mentioned in comment #33.
    But it is very strange that the issue still exists when using drm-intel-next tree. Maybe the issue is affected by something else in drm-intel-next tree. the next step is to track which commit affects this issue.

Hi

I tried this, against a debian 2.6.34-1 experimental.2 build, works as well, but if I start X with an external monitor attached the machine hangs....

I can attach after X has started.

So  (with i915 blacklisted)

1.a boot
1.b modprobe i915 modeset=1
1.c startx
1.d attached ext display
1.e xrandr add second display
works

2.a boot
2.b modprobe i915 modeset=1
2.c attach ext monitor
2.d startx
dead have to hold the  power button for a while

I tested this patch against mainline 2.6.34 and can report that this combination works on my Dell Latitude E6510.  (Which is good because I can avoid bleeding-edge problems in drm-intel-next like the udevd 100% bug.)
Comment 54 Keyzer Suze 2010-07-01 17:31:22 UTC
Done some more testing with suspending/hibernating and the patched driver.

the edp doesn't come back on, I have to attach a second screen, restart gdm/X and then use xrandr to restart the eDP.

So its nearly there, if only I could do this from the command line with one of the fb* tools.

Thanks

FWIW, this patch also works with the E6410, when applied against a clean 2.6.34 kernel.

drm-intel-next, and 2.6.35 both seem to be problematic.

Thanks for chasing this down!

Comment 61 josch 2010-07-28 06:08:13 UTC
the exact same issue still persists with kernel 2.6.35-rc6+ (containing the latest commits up to 14h ago) even though the (supposedly) fixing patch is already included there.
this is on a dell E6510
can anybody confirm?
Comment 62 Chris Wilson 2010-07-28 06:26:53 UTC
josh, please do not hijack bug reports. This one was clearly identified and fixed, so if you are seeing a very similar bug on different hardware, you have a different bug and need to file a separate bug report.

To simplify , jost try fedora 13 updated with kernel , 

http://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/kernel-2.6.33.6-147.2.4.fc13

as you can see the patch can be applied to kernel 2.6.33/4 ,
you may have lots of thing not updated

Josch is right, I've tried drm-intel git sources (2.6.36-rc2+) and I lost my working eDP. I've noticed not all (none?) of the patches referred in this bug report are committed to drm-intel.
I was using the drm patch from fedora but since an update of my kernel that doesn't work anymore either.

The original bug has been fixed, so I am closing this report so that we can't focus on the remaining issues in separate bug reports.

There have been many more eDP fixes in

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ickle/drm-intel.git drm-intel-next

so please bare those in mind when opening new bugs.

So should we concentrate on https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29278
?

I can confirm that as of the 21/11/2010 that drm-intel and drm-intel-next based of the 2.6.37rc2 merges fail with an HP elitebook 2740p (Samsung touch eDP).

So I don't think anyone can say this is fixed upstream.

Fedora kernel works very well on dell latitude E6410,
