This bug is awaiting verification that the linux-aws-
fips/5.15.0-1056.61+fips1 kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please
test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is
solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-jammy-linux-aws-fips' to
'verification-done-jammy-linux-aws-fips'. If the problem still exists,
change the tag 'verification-needed-jammy-linux-aws-fips' to
'verification-failed-jammy-linux-aws-fips'.


If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will
be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.


See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how
to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

Bug description:
  [ Impact ]
  Commit 8f4b1068e7fc3df1a77ac8151767e56b208cc87f introduced some timing checks 
which have been proven invalid for at least some hardware setups. A user trying 
to run Focal with HWE 5.15 kernel is not able to get any video output.
  After going through bisection between 5.4 and 5.5 this commit was identified. 
Reverting it on top of Focal HWE kernel fixes the issue.

  The issue has been addressed upstream in DRM tree
  (20c2dbff342aec13bf93c2f6c951da198916a455) and has been merge into
  linux-next (e0ef2daa8ca8ce4dbc2fd0959e383b753a87fd7d).

  dmesg and lspci from the affected configuration are attached to this
  bug.

  [ Test Plan ]
  1. Boot the affected hardware with Ubuntu desktop running kernel v5.5 or 
higher.
  2. Wait until boot finishes and see the blank screen.

  Actual result: there is no video output visible.
  Expected result: normal boot process should be visible (e.g. splash), then 
GUI should appear.

  [ Where problem could occur ]
  This bug was a result of assumptions in the checks that turned out to be not 
valid for some hardware. The checks were removed from global intel_mode_valid 
function and moved into connector specific .mode_valid() hooks, entirely 
skiping BXT/GLK DSI connectors.

  This should keep the checks where appropriate and skip for hardware
  that does not comply to them.

  [ Other info ]

  Original bug description:

  There is a regression preventing a user to upgrade from 5.4 kernel to 
anything that's higher than 5.5. When using such kernel the image orientation 
is wrong (rotated by 90°C). Also the kernel log contains:

  wrz 15 09:19:49 desktop kernel: index 5 is out of range for type 'u32 [5]'

  (full stack trace attached)

  The video hardware in use is:
  00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation UHD Graphics 605 
[8086:3185] (rev 06) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
  (...)
  Kernel driver in use: i915
  Kernel modules: i915

  The user wanted to upgrade from bionic to focal with HWE kernel (they
  needed it due to some networking hardware they wanted to have
  supported by the newer kernel).

  The user was testing mainline stable kernels and noticed that the last
  working kernel was the 5.4 series, while anything starting from 5.5
  and above is BROKEN (symptoms as described in the first paragraph
  above).

  Together with the user we have run a bisection between v5.4 and v5.5 on the 
upstream stable kernel and we were able to identify the first broken commit to 
be:
  8f4b1068e7fc3df1a77ac8151767e56b208cc87f drm/i915: Check some transcoder 
timing minimum limits

  To confirm I have reverted this change on top of the HWE kernel for
  focal and the user have confirmed that this resolved the issue (test
  build available at ppa:dgadomski/kernel-sf368743).

  I am not fully sure what the purpose of this patch was, but I assume
  the regression was not intended and the hardware should be still
  supported.

  Attaching lshw and lspci output.
