dsdreamer (Charles), do you use hdmi audio? If you do can you test a F20
kernel?


Code:
--------------------
    
  sudo csos-cleanUpdate-testing kernel
  
--------------------


It's 3.14.0-0.rc4 plus RN patch set, plus the rather large RK imx-drm
patch from greghk's staging-next, plus 2 RK patches to add support for
imx hdmi audio and a hdmi CEC module, which I added for completeness, as
it was a part of his original preview series of patches but not part of
the staging-next patch. (Which applies to the hdmi audio driver as well.
That didn't become part of the submitted staging-next patch, so perhaps
it means that he isn't comfortable that it is ready for prime time
usage.) I haven't tested this other than to say it boots. (I've had very
limited time to do anything CS related for the last 2 days and I don't
have time to do anything more right now than type this message.) 

The imx fb is no longer a stand-alone module and looks like it wonted be
created/initialized with a hdmi device being plugged in, which is a PITA
from a jivelite running as a service, point of view. Also, I don't
believe the hdmi audio device will be created without a hdmi device
being detected. (Looks like there is a bunch of initialisation code,
that parses ELD for supported sample rates, from the actual plugged-in
device, but I've not really looked too closely.) 

Questions are.... With a hdmi device being plugged in from boot.....

1. Video still works?
2. Does it work any better than it did before, vis-a-vis EDID detection
code. (ISTR you had to set params on kernel cmd line.)
3. Does /dev/fb0 get created?
4. Do you get a hdmi audio device listed? (aplay -l)
5. Does the hdmi audio device actually work? ;)

PS. If you do try running, don't forget to correct the dtb entry in
/boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf before you run it. The dtb file has
definitely changed 3.13.x -> 3.14.0.rcx).
