From cf9610f9116d55c5a66ef9f1faecacabd93a9322 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Linus Torvalds Date: Mon, 24 Aug 2026 08:46:03 -0700 Subject: Merge tag 'pinctrl-v7.3-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-pinctrl Pull pin control updates from Linus Walleij: "Core changes: - Use the non-blocking mux_state_try_select() in the generic MUX pin control back-end - Free pin maps on pinctrl_generic_to_map() failure in the core helpers New hardware pin control: - Qualcomm Maili TLMM SoC, PMG1110 PMIC, and Eliza LPASS LPI TLMM SoC (this is for the low power audio, LPASS = Low Power Audio SubSystem portions) - Upboard support on top of the Intel pin controller - Apple T6030 and T6031 support (just compatible strings) - Samsung Exynos 8855 SoC - Mediatek MT6858 SoC - Rockchip RK3308B and RV1106 SoCs - Airoha EN7523 and AN7563 SoCs Improvements: - Qualcomm TLMM GPIOs are unconditionally marked as wakeup capable - Qualcomm improvements on top of the Qualcomm PDC (power domain controller) irqchip improvements from tglx:s tree - Qualcomm IPQ806x and IPQ9650 non-urgent pin grop fixups - The NPCM8xx driver has been put into shape fixing many pin and group definitions - Some non-urgent Tegra 264 pin assignments are fixed up - Some non-urgent fixups to Airoha AN7581 and AN7583 registers and pin assignments, missing features etc" * tag 'pinctrl-v7.3-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-pinctrl: (130 commits) dt-bindings: pinctrl: Convert TI DA850 pupd to DT schema pinctrl: meson: sync some modify from A4 pinctrl: meson: a4: Add input enable pin configuration pinctrl: realtek: rtd1625: remove unused group name spdif_sel pinctrl: realtek: rtd1625: fix base_bit for VE4 GPIO 13 dt-bindings: pinctrl: microchip,pic32mzda-pinctrl: Convert to DT schema Revert "Merge branch 'ib-rsk7204' into devel" pinctrl: rockchip: Add RV1106 pinctrl support dt-bindings: pinctrl: rockchip: Add RV1106 compatible pinctrl: rockchip: Decode drive strength in the get function pinctrl: fix PINCTRL_GENERIC_MUX not always being selectable pinctrl: airoha: add support of an7563 SoC dt-bindings: pinctrl: airoha: add support of an7563 pin controller pinctrl: airoha: try to find chip scu node by phandle first pinctrl: airoha: add support of en7523 SoC dt-bindings: pinctrl: airoha: add support of en7523 pin controller pinctrl: airoha: an7583: add support for olt pinmux pinctrl: airoha: an7583: add support for pon_alt pinmux pinctrl: airoha: an7583: add support for npu_uart pinmux dt-bindings: pinctrl: airoha: an7583: add missed features ... --- Documentation/admin-guide/edid.rst | 27 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 27 insertions(+) create mode 100644 Documentation/admin-guide/edid.rst (limited to 'Documentation/admin-guide/edid.rst') diff --git a/Documentation/admin-guide/edid.rst b/Documentation/admin-guide/edid.rst new file mode 100644 index 000000000..1a9b965aa --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/admin-guide/edid.rst @@ -0,0 +1,27 @@ +.. SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 + +==== +EDID +==== + +In the good old days when graphics parameters were configured explicitly +in a file called xorg.conf, even broken hardware could be managed. + +Today, with the advent of Kernel Mode Setting, a graphics board is +either correctly working because all components follow the standards - +or the computer is unusable, because the screen remains dark after +booting or it displays the wrong area. Cases when this happens are: + +- The graphics board does not recognize the monitor. +- The graphics board is unable to detect any EDID data. +- The graphics board incorrectly forwards EDID data to the driver. +- The monitor sends no or bogus EDID data. +- A KVM sends its own EDID data instead of querying the connected monitor. + +Adding the kernel parameter "nomodeset" helps in most cases, but causes +restrictions later on. + +As a remedy for such situations, the kernel configuration item +CONFIG_DRM_LOAD_EDID_FIRMWARE was introduced. It allows to provide an +individually prepared or corrected EDID data set in the /lib/firmware +directory from where it is loaded via the firmware interface. -- cgit v1.3.1
