How do i do that? Is there already some DP related official mechanism, or do i just add some if-statement to detect_edp_sink_caps <https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.5-rc5/ident/detect_edp_sink_caps>() that matches on a new EDID quirk to be defined for that panel in drm_edid etc., and then if (edit quirk for that panel) dpcd[DP_MAX_LINK_RATE <https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.5-rc5/ident/DP_MAX_LINK_RATE>] = 0xc; The other question would be if we should do it for this panel on AMD DC at all? I see my original patch more as something to fix other odd (Apple?) panels, than for this specific one. As mentioned above, photometer testing on AMD DC with a Polaris on the MBP 2017 suggests that the deault 2.7 Gbps 8 bit mode + AMD's spatial dithering provides higher quality results for >= 10 bpc framebuffers than actually running the panel at 10 bit without dithering. As a little side-note, for squeezing out more precision than the 10 bpc framebuffers we officially have in Mesa/OpenGL, my software Psychtoolbox has some special hacks, playing funny tricks with resizing X-Screens, applying bit-twiddling shaders to images and MMIO programming the gpu "behind the back" of the driver, to get the gpu into RGBA16161616 linear scanout mode. That gives up to 12 bpc precision on that panel according to photometer measurements. While AMD's dithering with the panel in 8 bit + 4 bit spatial dithering gives pretty good results, panel at 10 bit + 2 bit spatial dithering has some artifacts. And even at a normal 10 bit framebuffer, the 8 bit panel + 2 bit dithering seems to give better results than 10 bit panel mode. -mario
