This needs to be called after get_modes that ends up populating the monitor range after parsing the EDID. I could have just modified the get_modes hook in the driver to set the vrr capabilities but that doesnt go with the definition of get_modes() hook which is purely to obtain modes from edid. So i added a separate hook which will always return the vrr capabilities if this hook exists in the driver everytime a connector probe happens. Would you suggest this elsewhere or some other design? I am open to better placement of this hook or reusing some other hook or other suggestions for getting the vrr capabilities in the driver Manasi > > Cc: Jani Nikula <jani.nik...@linux.intel.com> > > Cc: Ville Syrjälä <ville.syrj...@linux.intel.com> > > Cc: Harry Wentland <harry.wentl...@amd.com> > > Cc: Nicholas Kazlauskas <nicholas.kazlaus...@amd.com> > > Signed-off-by: Manasi Navare <manasi.d.nav...@intel.com> > > --- > > drivers/gpu/drm/drm_probe_helper.c | 4 ++++ > > include/drm/drm_modeset_helper_vtables.h | 16 ++++++++++++++++ > > 2 files changed, 20 insertions(+) > > > > diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/drm_probe_helper.c > > b/drivers/gpu/drm/drm_probe_helper.c > > index 576b4b7dcd89..4403817bfb02 100644 > > --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/drm_probe_helper.c > > +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/drm_probe_helper.c > > @@ -482,6 +482,10 @@ int drm_helper_probe_single_connector_modes(struct > > drm_connector *connector, > > > > count = (*connector_funcs->get_modes)(connector); > > > > + /* Get the Adaptive Sync Support if helper exists */ > > + if (*connector_funcs->get_adaptive_sync_support) > > + (**connector_funcs->get_adaptive_sync_support)(connector); > > + > > This is in the middle of a sequence figuring out the modes.
