I'm in agreement with Jani's assessment. While it does address the
particular problem at hand, it just looks for duplicate data and issues
a retry if that specific condition is detected. It seems more
appropriate that instead of checking for specific failure modes, we
check to ensure that we have useable values for the basic, critical
fields required for Displayport.
I would suggest that we validate the first 3 bytes of the DPCD. Those
fields are as follows:
0x00 - DPCD revision level
Currently can only be 0x10, 0x11 or 0x12
0x01 - Link rate
Also only 3 values currently - 0x06, 0x0A and 0x14
0x02 - Max lane count
For validation purposes, we just need to look at 4:0 and verify
it's 0x01, 0x02 or 0x04
While bits 6 and 7 are used, they're just feature bits and we
check them later anyways.
This is kind of what I was thinking:
#define MAX_DPCD_REVISION 0x12
u8 lane_count = DPCD[2] 0x1F;
// Verify DPCD revision is in a valid range. MAX_DPCD_REVISION
should be updated as necessasry
// to reflect the current supported DPCD version.
if (DPCD[0] 0x10 || DPCD MAX_DPCD_REVISION)
goto retry;
// These are the only valid values for link rate. More will surely
be added as Displayport moves forward.
if !(DPCD[1] == 0x06 || DPCD[1] == 0x0A || DPCD[1] == 0x14)
goto retry;
// Lane count must be 1, 2 or 4. 3 shalt thou not count, and 5 is
right out...
if !(lane_count == 0x01 || lane_count == 0x02 || lane_count == 0x04)
goto retry;
retry:
retry_count++;
if retry_count max_retries
goto error
else
goto read_dpcd

If it's not related to crtc disable/enable state changes, then I assume
this might happen with any native aux reads at any time, and your patch
would just paper over one instance of it.
Does this occur with several different displays? With the displays this
occurs with, does it also occur on non-Haswell?
Have you observed that you'd ever need to try again more than once?
I.e. does the first retry sometimes return garbage too?
Instinctively I'd say we need to resist the urge to apply this
workaround, and try to find the root cause.

Yes, exactly, that's the purpose :)

I haven't seen on IvyBridge machines, at least.
And I have no other DP monitor, so cannot test right now.
Have you observed that you'd ever need to try again more than once?

I don't remember whether more than once were needed.

*insert lament about how hw never fails to disappoint*
A few questions:
- Has anyone checked whether the same panel (I guess this is about edp)
also fails in the same way on other chips? Maybe with a dual gpu
solution?
- Jesse has a patch somewhere, please test the diff embedded in this bz
comment:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67245#c29
Could be that we have an issue with the panel power timings.
- Shouldn't we instead clamp the values read from dpcd to a sane range?
Worst case we'll do a few bogus link training rounds ...
Also we really should be extracting this stuff from drivers into common
code. Somewhen next century maybe ;-)
