So > maybe something is off with the irq handling here instead? Ahhhh.. So I think the trouble here is the that when we fail waiting for the irq, the backtrace is as follows: [ 8.318654] [] dump_backtrace+0x0/0x1a0 [ 8.318661] [] show_stack+0x14/0x20 [ 8.318671] [] dump_stack+0x90/0xb0 [ 8.318680] [] adv7511_get_edid_block+0x2c8/0x320 [ 8.318687] [] drm_do_get_edid+0x78/0x280 [ 8.318693] [] adv7511_get_modes+0x80/0xd8 [ 8.318700] [] adv7511_connector_get_modes+0x14/0x20 [ 8.318710] [] drm_helper_probe_single_connector_modes+0x2bc/0x500 [ 8.318718] [] drm_fb_helper_hotplug_event+0x130/0x188 [ 8.318726] [] drm_fbdev_cma_hotplug_event+0x10/0x20 [ 8.318733] [] kirin_fbdev_output_poll_changed+0x20/0x58 [ 8.318740] [] drm_kms_helper_hotplug_event+0x28/0x38 [ 8.318748] [] drm_helper_hpd_irq_event+0x138/0x180 [ 8.318754] [] adv7511_irq_process+0x78/0xd8 [ 8.318761] [] adv7511_irq_handler+0x14/0x28 [ 8.318769] [] irq_thread_fn+0x28/0x68 [ 8.318775] [] irq_thread+0x128/0x1e8 [ 8.318782] [] kthread+0xd0/0xe8 [ 8.318788] [] ret_from_fork+0x10/0x50 So we're actually in irq handling the hotplug interrupt, which is why we never get the irq notification when the edid is read. I suspect we need to use a workqueue to do the hotplug handling out of irq. thanks -john
