After some discussion with Ville, we could refine this further at the drm core level by enforcing the Intel behavior - defaulting to negative polarity and also checking/sanitizing the PHSYNC/PVSYNC flags. PHSYNC/PVSYNC isn't used by the Intel driver so we could still go with the above patch for now and follow-up with a drm core fix. We should probably also reject modes at drm core level where both positive and negative flags are set, again in a separate follow-up patch. --Imre -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
