See my other reply, drivers don't need to check for GOOD, it's kinda
magic.

Indeed, good catch Ville. set_config is purely a legacy thing.

Not fond of this because we'll basically end up with some drivers
checking for link-status (none do that yet) and some user-space
resetting it to GOOD. It'll break only if user-space doesn't reset and
a driver which checks link-status is used. Driver-specific behaviour
isn't great.

Oops, I'm blind and you're right, there's no bug. We already only
force-set this for legacy modeset (and fbcon).

That also means that atomic userspace has to handle this, which is maybe
not so awesome ... So maybe we need to duct-tape over this for atomic too,
and in that case it should be only done when ALLOW_MODESET is set.

But maybe all the compositors that care will handle this :-/

I didn't think udate_output_state() was getting called for
non-legacy paths. Where is that coming from?

I think we should have Cc: sta...@vger.kernel.org on this. Also I think
would be really awesome if we can update/extend the igt, but I guess if
you don't have a chamelium it's a bit hard to make that happen :-/

Also I guess you'll reflect this in your doc patch?

With the cc: stable this has my Reviewed-by: Daniel Vetter

[PATCH] drm/atomic: don't reset link-status to GOOD without ALLOW_MODESET

2020-06-03 Thread Simon Ser
In update_output_state, the link-status property was reset to GOOD to
ensure legacy drmModeSetCrtc re-trains the link. However this auto-reset
is also performed on an atomic commit without ALLLOW_MODESET. If a
driver reads link-status to figure out whether to re-train the link,
this could cause an atomic commit failure. User-space doesn't expect
such a failure, because commits without ALLOW_MODESET aren't supposed to
fail because of link training issues.

Change update_output_state to implicitly reset link-status to GOOD only
if ALLOW_MODESET is set. This is the case for legacy drmModeSetCrtc
because drm_atomic_state_init sets it (and is used in
drm_atomic_helper_set_config, called from drm_mode_setcrtc).

Drivers don't seem to read link-status at the moment -- they seem to
rely on user-space performing a modeset instead. So this shouldn't
result in any change in behaviour, this should only prevent future
failures if drivers start reading link-status.
