[PATCH v2] drm/edid: Add HDR Static Metadata Type 1 quirk for LG 32GN600
From: Xela
Date: Mon Aug 24 2026 - 18:39:03 EST
The LG 32GN600 monitor (PNP ID GSM 0x7766) advertises HDR support in
its CTA-861 Extension block with SMPTE ST 2084 (PQ) EOTF support
(byte 0x9e = 0x05) and valid desired content luminance descriptors
(351 cd/m^2 max CLL/FALL at bytes 0xa0-0xa2).
However, due to a factory firmware bug, the HDR Static Metadata Data
Block descriptor byte (byte 0x9f) is reported as 0x00 instead of 0x01,
omitting the Static Metadata Type 1 capability bit (bit 0).
Because of this omitted bit, drm_parse_hdr_metadata_block() sets
metadata_type to 0. Consequently, drm_calculate_luminance_range()
rejects the block, and userspace attempts to perform atomic KMS commits
configuring HDR output metadata fail with -EINVAL (Error 22), preventing
compositors (Plasma, Gamescope, MPV) from engaging HDR on this display.
Introduce EDID_QUIRK_FORCE_HDR_STATIC_METADATA_TYPE1 to force the Static
Metadata Type 1 descriptor bit for displays with this defective EDID block,
and register the LG 32GN600 (GSM 0x7766) in the EDID quirk table.
