Subject: [PATCH v4 4/6] drm/i915: Switch DDC when reading the EDID
Date: Fri, 11 Sep 2015 12:40:53 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1f339369f889faa455ced90d68773e860cf93b1a.1444670070.git.lukas@wunner.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1444670070.git.lukas@wunner.de>

The pre-retina MacBook Pro uses an LVDS panel and a gmux controller
to switch the panel between its two GPUs. The panel mode in VBIOS
is notoriously bogus on these machines and some models have no
VBIOS at all.

Use drm_get_edid_switcheroo() in lieu of drm_get_edid() on LVDS.
This allows us to retrieve the EDID if the outputs are currently
muxed to the discrete GPU by temporarily switching the panel's DDC
lines to the integrated GPU.

This only enables EDID probing on the pre-retina MBP (2008 - 2013).
The retina MBP (2012 - present) uses eDP and gmux is not capable
of switching AUX separately from the main link on these models.
This will be addressed in later patches.

List of pre-retina MBPs with dual GPUs, one of them Intel:
    [MBP  6,2 2010  intel ILK + nvidia GT216  pre-retina  15"]
    [MBP  6,1 2010  intel ILK + nvidia GT216  pre-retina  17"]
    [MBP  8,2 2011  intel SNB + amd turks     pre-retina  15"]
    [MBP  8,3 2011  intel SNB + amd turks     pre-retina  17"]
    [MBP  9,1 2012  intel IVB + nvidia GK107  pre-retina  15"]
