So here's an idea Ville and I came up with. It's not completely thought
out yet, probably has some wrinkles still, but then there are wrinkles
with the upfront link training too (I'll get back to those separately).

If link training fails during modeset (either for real or because it's a
test sink that wants to test failures), we 1) store the link parameters
as failing, 2) send a uevent

We can train at the optimal link rate required for the requested mode as
done in the existing implementation and retrain whenever the link training
test request is sent. 
For the test 4.3.1.4 in CTS, it does force a failure in CR and expects the
driver to fall back to even lower link rate. We do not implement this in the
current driver and so this test fails. Could you elaborate on how this can
be achieved with the the cooperation with userspace?
Should we send a uevent to the userspace asking to retry at a lower resolution
after retraining at the lower link rate?
This is pertty much the place where majority of the compliance tests are 
failing.
How can we pass compliance with regards to this feature?

We already train at max bandwidth for DP MST, which seems to be the
sensible thing to do.

I don't see a need to do this for DP SST.

That test does not require the source DUT to default to maximum lane
count or link rate of the sink. The source may freely choose the lane
count and link rate as long as they don't exceed sink capabilities.

For the purposes of the test, the test setup can request specific
parameters to be used, but that does not mean using maximum by
*default*.

We currently lack the feature to reduce lane count and link rate. The
key to understand here is that starting at max and reducing down to the
sufficient parameters for the mode (which is where we start now) offers
no real benefit for any use case. What we're lacking is a feature to
reduce the link parameters *below* what's required by the mode the
userspace wants. This can only be achieved through cooperation with
userspace.

Each patch must be a worthwhile change on its own. By my reading of this
patch, we can go under the required bandwidth. You can't justify that by
saying the follow-up patch fixes it.

I am still reading and gathering more feedback on the upfront link
training patch. I will get back to you. But the impression I'm currently
getting is that we can't do this. The upfront link training patch was
originally written for USB type C. But if DP compliance has priority,
the order of business should be getting compliance without upfront link
training. I am also still not convinced upfront link training is
required for compliance.

To be continued...

Thanks Jani for your review comments.
Yes in this change we start at the max link rate and lane count. This change was
made according to the design document discussions we had before strating this 
DP 
Redesign project. The main reason for starting at the maxlink rate and max lane
count was for ensuring proper behavior of DP MST. In case of DP MST, we want to
train the link at the maximum supported link rate/lane count based on an early/
upfront link training result so that we dont fail when we try to connect a
higher resolution monitor as a second monitor. This a trade off between wsting 
the link or higher power vs. needing to retrain for every monitor that requests
a higher BW in case of DP MST.
 
Actually this is also the reason for enabling upfront link training in the 
following patch where we train the link much ahead in the modeset sequence 
to understand the link rate and lane count values at which the link can be 
successfully trained and then the link training through modeset will always 
start
at the upfront values (maximum supported values of lane count and link rate 
based
on upfront link training).

As per the CTS, all the test 4.3.1.4 requires that you fall back to the lower 
link
rate after trying to train at the maximum link rate advertised through the DPCD 
registers.

This will not drop the link BW to a number below what is required for the mode 
because the requested modes are pruned or validated in intel_dp_mode_valid
based on the upfront link training results in the following patch. And these 
values are used here as the starting values of link rate and lane count.

I almost feel that the upfront link training patch and this patch should be 
combined so that insead of starting from the max link rate and lane count it
is clear that we are starting from the upfront values.

This change makes the link training start at the max lane count and max
link rate. This is not ideal, as it wastes the link. And it is not a
spec requirement. "The Link Policy Maker of the upstream device may
choose any link count and link rate as long as they do not exceed the
capabilities of the DP receiver."

Our current code starts at the minimum required bandwidth for the mode,
therefore we can't fall back to lower link rate and lane count without
reducing the mode.

AFAICT this patch here makes it possible for the link bandwidth to drop
below what is required for the mode. This is unacceptable.
