I don't think you can do this. The phy pll lock check is
recommended and can indicate hw failure. Can you please check if
this untested, uncompiled patch makes it work correctly ?

I would expect this patch to end your wrong image issue but the
audio part may be a different problem.

Your patch changes things. With this applied on top of 4.15-rc1
it is failing 100% of the time instead of only half of the time.
I brought the original test equipment back to the setup so I can
see the video and pink bar again. The symptoms remain the same
(unexpected size, pink bar, and no audio).
PS: your patch seems to have been line wrapped which made it a
bit annoying to apply.

It is very consistent: pink bar <=> no audio.
My suspicion is that the audio problem is just the wrong video mode
on the sink side messing things up, but I have no way of confirming
that (that I know of).
Thanks,
Nick

Ok, it was a long shot anyway.

Can you tell me which test equipment are you using?

Hmmm, my first thought was that audio is being configured first
because of the phy lock wait time, I've seen this happening before.
Lets try this:
- Disable all alsa clients (e.g. pulseaudio, ...) so that no one
tries to configure audio.
- Plug out/in the cable until the issue appears
- When the issue appears use aplay to play audio through the HDMI
output
- Repeat several times with different audio rates and with no
resample (you can use the plughw interface in aplay).

I am using an XRGB-Mini Framemeister as the sink device for testing
which isn't "real" test equipment but does show details of the video
and audio mode (which the monitor I have does not do).
The normal setup of this laptop has a small "audio splitter" as
the sink, which among other things includes HDMI input and output
ports and an S/PDIF audio output.
These devices can be connected together in various ways and the
results seem to be consistent in any configuration.

OK, I will give it a try later this evening.

Using the above sequence on unpatched 4.15-rc1 it seems there is no
sound when starting audio output after the pink bar is visible.
However I am not confident of the results here, restarting aplay
with different sample rates (or even restarting with the same rate)
is causing some weird effects on my setup so I want to check the test
setup with some different source devices.
Cheers,
Nick
