dmesg of display knockout

I have a Dell Latitude E7440 connected to a Dell E-Port WV7MW dock, which feeds two Dell P2214H monitors, one using DP on the dock the other using DVI.

The DVI screen suffers corruption from time to time, pixels get shifted then it blinks off then comes back and is fine for ages, I have also noticed corruption while unplugging in the form of lots of red pixels, might not be relevant to this.

Both screens are mirrored and I am unable to set them seperatly from arandr, whats identified as DP2 always gets output on both screens.
I have also found that while unplugging the docks display port and re plugging results in expected screen doing off and back on, however unplugging the docks DVI results in both screens being knocked out and replugging has no effect both monitors stay off, even with replugging the DP. Logging out and loging back in fixes it.

Attached is a dmesg with debug=14 of starting up, unplugging DP, replugging, unplugging DVI, replugging, and then a relog.
Comment 1 Chris Wilson 2013-12-17 17:12:35 UTC
Hmm, the dock only presents a DP link, so I guess it is acting as a MST hub.
Comment 2 Damien Lespiau 2013-12-17 21:35:27 UTC
Let's re-classify it as an enhancement then, DP MST is a fair amount of work.
Comment 3 Ferry Huberts 2014-02-12 11:43:11 UTC
I'd like to request DP MST for my Tinkpad T440s + Ultra dock combination.
After upgrading the firmware of the dock, it appears that one 1 display works.

(coming in from bug 71267)
Comment 4 Stefan 2014-02-12 13:48:20 UTC
I would also like DP MST support for my Tinkpad T440s + Ultra dock.

Is this planned any time soon? Thanks for any updates.

I would also very much appreciate DP MST support for the Lenovo Thinkpad T440 + Ultradock combination (also coming in from bug 71267).

When there are any updates happening, is this the place where they'll be posted?

Knowing there are people here with the hardware and apparently willingness to test any support we add out in the real world, I would presume so yes. As to plans or schedules, there's unfortunately nothing further I can say.

I'd like to see DP MST HUB support as well (ThinkPad Ultra Dock). If someone cares, here is a little bounty: http://freedomsponsors.org/core/issue/444/hsw-mst-dell-dock-dvi-knocks-out-dp-when-unplugged

Comment 12 oss+freedesktop 2014-03-07 17:16:13 UTC
I also have a Dell Latitude E7440, with two 1600x1200 monitors connected via Display Port to a Dell PR02X dock. I can not get both monitors to work in dual head. They do work in mirror mode. It seems as if only one Display Port is visible to the operating system. The 3840x1200 resolution on DP1 works as well, the image is then stretched over both monitors.

Previously, I had a Dell Latitude E6410 in the same dock with the same two monitors, using the nouveau driver. That worked flawlessly. I still have that laptop around for a few more days. If required, I can provide more info on that one.

The relevant output of xrandr, lspci and dmesg can be found below. My Xorg.log file will follow in attachment.

Tried to investigate further. The current Displayport 1.2a standard ist only available to members of VESA (which costs 3500$ and more). If anyone here has the DP 1.2a standard document, he may contact me directly and I'll see what I can do. Thanks
Comment 15 Sree Harsha Totakura 2014-03-10 12:56:06 UTC
I see that Intel is a member of VESA (http://www.vesa.org/about-vesa/member-companies/#i).  May be then can provide JohnDoe the document privately.

They are personally licensed documents for employees of member companies, so I would not get my hopes up about that.

Do not have this document yet...
I shed my hopes on that...
Sorry.
We need to wait for Intel to implement MST.

Any scheduling? 2020? 2025?
Comment 19 Christer Folkesson 2014-03-19 07:11:30 UTC
(In reply to comment #1)
> Hmm, the dock only presents a DP link, so I guess it is acting as a MST hub.
The MST hub has to be in the laptop, for solving the problem it probably don't matter.
There are two versions of the E-series dock. One having a VGA, DVI and DP connector and the other (bigger) having VGA, 2x DVI/DP (marked as VIDEO 1 and VIDEO 2, so you can only choose one connection at a time).

Similar to comment #12 we had a E6410 (~3 year old model) in the same dock (also tried with new dock) and it worked okay, running some Ubuntu 11.04.
This leads me to believe that for the two digital outputs in the dock the Dell E-series docking connector have two distinict DP "cables".
The E7440 ultrabook can, if you connect the displays to the onboard HDMI and mini-DP connector use 3 screens at once (2 external and the built-in). My guess they only could have one more "output" and made a DP MST hub for them internally.





If you guys says it can't be fixed shortly I might suggest to other users with Dell E7x40 laptops a workaround, that some guy on the internet had created (doing a fake xinerama) I reposted and wrote about it in the Linux Mint forum thread I created about this problem, but I myself didn't get it to work (and someone in that thread posted to this bug report, that's how I found it).
See the link github from this post http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=59&t=160637&p=827906#p828440
If anyone other gets it to work I would be glad if you wrote in that thread (let this bug report/enhancement be for DP.

Comment 22 Matthew Thode 2014-04-21 15:29:29 UTC
Here's some more info as well, specific to the pro2x and an e7440u.

DP1 controls all outputs on the pro2x, (DP1/DVI1), (DP2/DVI2), VGA.

Not that I have a vote that counts, but I also vote that this is MST related, though VGA being mirrored as well seems odd to me.

I can test the patches submitted by David; but it looks like we need to have userspace patches as well in xorg-intel driver.
Comment 28 Leho Kraav (:macmaN :lkraav) 2014-05-19 21:20:47 UTC
While this is being worked on, can anyone confirm that when using the dock, the E7440 built-in HDMI connector still works and can be used for triple monitor?

Same Here: Thinkpad t440s + UltraDock.

Two external monitors connected to the Dock, no mater the combination( VGA + DVI, VGA + HDMI, DIV + HDMI ) it always shows a mirrored image.

Comment 35 Tim Besard 2014-06-18 15:52:53 UTC
As mentioned above, Dave Airlie is working on this. His WIP tree for MST support, which doesn't seems to have made the 3.16 merge, is publicly available at FDO: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~airlied/linux/log/?h=drm-i915-mst-support
Tested on a Lenovo T440s + UltraDock and 2 Dell monitors, works decently apart from some momentarily black screens every now and then. YMMV, use at your own risk, etc.

I would like to test it too but held myself back as I read somewhere that they require some userspace patches.  Did you patch userspace too? or were they simply enough without any userspace patches?

Comment 39 Arik 2014-06-18 16:21:52 UTC
Tim - that's great news.

I would very much be willing to test this work on my setup (Dell Latitude e7440 with Fedora 20) but I'm unfamiliar with kernel building. How would I go about testing this on a fully updated Fedora 20 machine? 

An optimal solution would be an installable rpm of this kernel somewhere (for F20)

Comment 40 Tim Besard 2014-06-18 16:36:03 UTC
Arik: you're in luck, Dave Airlie has a testing repository for Fedora 20 users, see https://airlied.livejournal.com/79657.html
Apparently that repo _does_ contain a patched userspace driver, but it seems to work without as well. Also, the branch that repo is based on (drm-i915-mst-v3.14) lags the branch I tested by some commits.
Comment 41 Steffen Weber 2014-06-18 16:56:44 UTC
David Airlie's "drm-i915-mst-support" branch (http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~airlied/linux/log/?h=drm-i915-mst-support) has solved the problem for me, too!

(HP UltraSlim Dock 2013, xf86-video-intel 2.99.912)
Comment 42 Sree Harsha Totakura 2014-06-21 11:30:47 UTC
I confirm that Airlie's patches work and they require the userspace support added in 2.99.912.  For example, they did not work with 2.99.909.

However, the setup is not yet stable: with 2.99.912, X crashes when I change the orientation of the display; with the current git version of the intel driver, it crashes when I un-dock my notebook (see https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=80325).
Comment 43 Arik 2014-06-22 14:15:23 UTC
Unfortunately it did not work for me. Possibly the error is on me though since it worked for others here.

I've added David's COPR and installed the kernel, but it did not boot at all. I've even inspected the journal (via journalctl) and there's nothing logged there about the boot - just the subsequent boot (with the older kernel). 

I've looked and noticed that there's also the kernel-modules-extra package and thought that perhaps I need it too, but installing it did not change anything, still the same effect - booting into a black screen (after selected David's kernel in grub). Nothing works - not even CTRL+ALT+F* or other shortcuts.

Mind that I have intel driver 2.21.15.7 and not 2.99* as others seem to have - I can't seem to find a COPR to allow me to install it so that might be the problem? David's COPR contains 2.21.15-6 so it's older. I still tried to downgrade to that one but still the same effect.

Help! :D

It could be that, try compiling the HEAD version from git://anongit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-intel.  For the not-so-old 2.99.909 version didn't work but the HEAD version did.

A question to other who got the patches working: do the displays work fine even after un-docking and re-docking (https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=80355)?

I cloned the repository - but how do I build it? 

Running "make" yields:

make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.



Once I upgrade, how do I revert to the version I have now? (in case I'll need to)

You should first run ./autogen.sh in that directory and then run ./configure

When you run make install, by default the build installs the driver into /usr/local/, so if you keep the build directory unchanged you can later run make uninstall to *downgrade*

Note: if you are new to compiling packages from sources, then I advise you not to try this one.  It is buggy anyway; see https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=80355.

I am experiencing a similar problem on a Dell Latitude e7240. 

I am trying to apply the patch according to the manual. But unfortunately I get the following error message: 

"Current kernel version is 3.13.9 ( One Giant Leap for Frogkind)
cannot find patch file: patch-3.13.10".

Can someone tell me what may be wrong? This is the first time I am trying to patch a kernel so please forgive me if my question is stupid.
Comment 49 Jim 2014-07-18 15:13:11 UTC
I have hit this bug on a Dell E7440 laptop, as well.  I'm very interested in a fix as this is preventing the usage of both external monitors.  I've gone back to using Windows, because both monitors work there, and it is painful ;)

Thank you very much for the link. I will be able to check whether its working on  a E7240 tomorrow (my docking station is at work). 

Anyway, I was able to install this upgrade which is a big step forward for me.

I've had some trouble upgrading to the 2.99.912 userspaces as the link from the manual was not working. I have used this link instead:

For anyone else trying to set up a multi-monitor docking station:

Dave Airlie's MST code seems to be on track for kernel 3.17.

Until then, I'm successfully using the drm-next tree with two monitors attached to my T440s ultra dock.

Dave's MST work has landed upstream. Closing this bug as fixed. Thanks for the reports and testing.

Please file *new* bugs for any remaining issues you may encounter with the MST support.

Confirming fixed. I'm running 3.17.0-rc6 and dual external displays off of E7440 and the small PR03X dock, outputs are now named DP1-1 and DP1-2. Quite glad to not have to manually connect the HDMI cable to the laptop anymore. Dave's the man! xrandr-1.4.1 probably does need some help itself, as I've had it occasionally stall and segfault on me just trying to list these dock-outputs. But that's a topic for another bug.

Is there any chance for a backport for Redhat 7?

You need to ask Red Hat.
