I suspect debug should be good enough for this. The user is probably going to notice some problem with their display resolution if the EDID is bad/zero, so we should still get the bug report. -- Ville Syrjälä Intel ___ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel

The ones in question, it's every time we read the EDID it comes back zero. I am betting that transient everything-is-zero rather than spurious data is rare enough not to worry about. An alternative would be to pass the log level to the bad_edid dumper, or just make it debug for even gibberish edids? -Chris ___ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel

I don't think null_edid_counter is actually used by anything.
So apart from wondering why the mode list has turned strange
is there some way I can still see from the logs that the
EDID has become all zeroes?

[PATCH] drm: Silence zero EDID carping
We have a few displays in CI that always report their EDID as a bunch of
zeroes. This is consistent behavioud, so one assumes intentional
indication of an "absent" EDID. Let us treat is as such by silently
reporting the zero edid using connector->null_edid_counter, leaving the
loud carp to EDID that violate their checksums or otherwise return
unexpected illegal data upon reading. These are more likely to be
inconsistent bad connections rather than being intended.
