Hi Ville,
I have implemented the code that we discussed where if the link training
fails, it would validate the modes on the new constraints and call
an atomic helper like drm_atomic_helper_connector_modeset() to redo
a modeset for the same mode. The two patches for this implemnetation is
are:
http://paste.ubuntu.com/23357104/
http://paste.ubuntu.com/23357105/
With this I can successfully trigger the modeset and retrain the link
at lower link rate. But I am getting a warning during intel_audio_codec_enable()
in intel_enable_ddi() during the commit phase on SKL.
Following is the dmesg log:
http://paste.ubuntu.com/23357075/
After further looking at it, I see that this calls drm_select_eld() function
that throws a warning if the mode_config mutex and modeset locks are held.
If I remove those WARN_ONs from there, I can get rid of this warning and
everything works smoothly.
Do you know if those WARN_ONs are required because these locks would be grabbed
when we are in modeset.
Regards
Manasi

You get the warn when they're *not* held. And checking for the
mode_config.mutex here looks like a bug. We call that during a modeset,
so if we get there through the atomic ioctl as opposed to a legacy
setcrtc we will not be holding the mode_config.mutex.
Walking the connector list with just the connection mutex should be safe
in theory. Although last I looked it was still racy as hell, but as I
said, in theory.
We could probably drop the connector list walk from there entirely since
we should know exactly which connector's eld we want.

Yes, lets please avoid connector_list walks if we know what we're doing.
Which we really should here with link training.
Also spoiler on connector_list locking: It's probably going to be an
entirely new locking scheme for this one, independent of either
mode_config.mutex and mode_config.connection_mutex. Most likely invovling
some kind of rcu.
