It is business as usual for the > hdmi-codec. Chasing this down through the hdmi-codec driver and sound framework, it will use sane defaults for supported channels and sample rates if the actual EDID struct we are passing is all 0s. I tested it out on the beagle play board and did not see any crashes. > > Did you come across some observation when you were testing? Yes, with the current state of the patch, if I plug-in a monitor after the soundcard is probed I cannot playback audio, because we returned an error initially. This issue goes away if we return a buffer of 0s like those other bridges. Overall I'm happy with this idea, so I will send a v2 fixing this. > > Regards > Aradhya > > > mutex_lock(>lock); > > > > memcpy(buf, ctx->connector->eld, > > > > --- > > base-commit: 6269320850097903b30be8f07a5c61d9f7592393 > > change-id: 20230825-it66121_edid-6ee98517808b > > > > Best regards, > -- Thanks, Jai GPG Fingerprint: 4DE0 D818 E5D5 75E8 D45A AFC5 43DE 91F9 249A 7145 signature.asc Description: PGP signature
[PATCH v2] drm: bridge: it66121: Fix invalid connector dereference
Fix the NULL pointer dereference when no monitor is connected, and the sound card is opened from userspace. Instead return an empty buffer (of zeroes) as the EDID information to the sound framework if there is no connector attached.

That will fix the spam, but more importantly will also allow playback if the HDMI monitor is hot-plugged later (after probe). I will send a new revision of this patch that uses that approach.
