When encoder validation of a display mode fails, retry with less bandwidth heavy YCbCr420 color mode, if available. This enables some HDMI 1.4 setups to support 4k60Hz output, which previously failed silently.

AMDGPU had nearly the exact same issue. This problem description is therefore copied from my commit message of the AMDGPU patch.

On some setups, while the monitor and the gpu support display modes with pixel clocks of up to 600MHz, the link encoder might not. This prevents YCbCr444 and RGB encoding for 4k60Hz, but YCbCr420 encoding might still be possible. However, which color mode is used is decided before the link encoder capabilities are checked. This patch fixes the problem by retrying to find a display mode with YCbCr420 enforced and using it, if it is valid.

I'm not entierly sure if the second "if (HAS_PCH_SPLIT(dev_priv) && !HAS_DDI(dev_priv))" check in intel_hdmi_compute_config(...) after forcing ycbcr420 is necessary. I included it to better be safe then sorry.

Don't pass dev_priv. It can be extracted from the intel_hdmi.

The name of the function isn't really sitting super well with me. I guess I'd just call it something like intel_hdmi_mode_clock_valid().

We should also split this big patch up into smaller parts. Just this mechanical extraction of this function without any functional changes could be a nice first patch in the series.

This function I think we just want to throw out and roll something a bit better.

Something like this I believe should work nicely:

intel_hdmi_compute_output_format() { if (drm_mode_is_420_only()) crtc_state->output_format = INTEL_OUTPUT_FORMAT_YCBCR420; else crtc_state->output_format = INTEL_OUTPUT_FORMAT_RGB;

ret = intel_hdmi_compute_clock(); if (ret) { if (crtc_state->output_format == INTEL_OUTPUT_FORMAT_YCBCR420) return ret;

crtc_state->output_format = INTEL_OUTPUT_FORMAT_YCBCR420;

ret = intel_hdmi_compute_clock()
if (ret)
	return ret;

}

return 0; }

Can you give clarification on the 3 checks coming in between intel_hdmi_ycbcr420_config and intel_hdmi_compute_clock?

I guess this can be done before:

pipe_config->has_audio =         intel_hdmi_has_audio(encoder, pipe_config, conn_state);

This one behaves differently whether or not RGB or YCbCr is used, but I guess does not change the required clock speed? I'm unsure about this however. If it has no effect on the clock I would call it after intel_hdmi_compute_clock:

pipe_config->limited_color_range =         intel_hdmi_limited_color_range(pipe_config, conn_state);

I don't know what this actually does, but it doesn't seem to have to do something with color encoding so, like the has_audio check, it can be done before deciding on RGB or YCbCr420? Correct me if I'm wrong:

limited_color_rage and has_audio we can do after the output_format/clock stuff.

So basically I'm thinking the result should look like:

... ret = intel_hdmi_compute_output_format(...); if (ret) return ret;

if (crtc_state->output_format == INTEL_OUTPUT_FORMAT_YCBCR420) { ret = intel_pch_panel_fitting(...); if (ret) return ret; }

crtc_state->limited_color_range = intel_hdmi_limited_color_range(...);

crtc_state->has_audio = intel_hdmi_has_audio(...); ...

Or I guess has_audio could be the first thing before intel_hdmi_compute_output_format(). Doesn't really matter atm. There may be some linkage between audio/clocks/etc. that we should be thinking about which may dictate what the order should be. But since we're not checking any of that anyway you don't have to worry about it right now.

if (HAS_PCH_SPLIT(dev_priv) && !HAS_DDI(dev_priv))         pipe_config->has_pch_encoder = true;

This one doesn't really matter as long as it's done somewhere. We could just move it somewhere quite early so it doesn't confuse people so much. Just after the DRM_MODE_FLAG_DBLSCAN check could be a sane spot for it.

...

assuming we make intel_hdmi_compute_clock() check whether 420 output is actually supported.

Currently it's check ycbcr420 then set. This would turn this around. Check first is more logical for my brain however.

what about something like this?

intel_hdmi_compute_output_format() {     if (drm_mode_is_420_only())         crtc_state->output_format = INTEL_OUTPUT_FORMAT_YCBCR420;     else         crtc_state->output_format = INTEL_OUTPUT_FORMAT_RGB;

ret = intel_hdmi_compute_clock();     if (ret) {         if (crtc_state->output_format == INTEL_OUTPUT_FORMAT_YCBCR420 ||                 !drm_mode_is_420_also() ||                 !connector->ycbcr_420_allowed)             return ret;

crtc_state->output_format = INTEL_OUTPUT_FORMAT_YCBCR420;

ret = intel_hdmi_compute_clock()         if (ret)             return ret;     }

return 0; }

Looks mostly OK. But I think we need a ycbcr_420_allowed check for the 420_only case too.

...

Could roll a small helper for that. Something along these lines perhaps: static bool intel_hdmi_ycbcr_420_supported() { return connector->ycbcr_420_allowed && (drm_mode_is_420_only() || drm_mode_is_420_also()); }

The intel_pch_panel_fitting() call should probably just be hoisted into intel_hdmi_compute_config() after we've called the new intel_hdmi_compute_output_format().

I think a three patch series is probably what we want for this: patch 1: extract intel_hdmi_mode_clock_valid() without 420_also handling patch 2: introduce intel_hdmi_compute_output_format() without 420_also handling patch 3: drop in the 420_also handling everywhere

That way if there's any regression due to the 420_also stuff at least we won't have to revert the whole thing, and can then more easily work on fixing whatever needs fixing.
