As I have mentioned earlier, my testing of your patch confirms that it is a regression even without your patch. There are two reliability matters in most recent FreeSync / MCCS implementation need further clarification from the AMD team. freesync_capable or MCCS support are inadvertently disabled on some occasions, for example, after HDMI cable hot plug. 1. AMD VSDB EDID parsing via internal dmub communication. 2. AMD MCCS VCP Code helpers. NOTE: I found these issues after backporting from asdn 7.x to SteamOS 6.16/6.18. It is verified on Steam Machine.

Note that Pei-Hsin reported an issue when running with my fix at the start of this thread, unfortunately it's still unclear if that's a regression of my fix or happens even without it (in which case it might be another regression of the MCCS related changes for 7.1). An alternative would be reverting the 4 commits d49086491bcb..8dc88c6a5948. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer \ GNOME / Xwayland / Mesa developer https://redhat.com \ Libre software enthusiast
