Replace drm_detect_hdmi_monitor() with drm_display_info.is_hdmi since
monitor HDMI information is available after EDID is parsed. Additionally
rewrite the code the code to have fewer indentation levels.
The problem is that the entire logic is outdated. The content
of cdv_hdmi_detect() should go into cdv_hdmi_get_modes(), the detect_ctx
callback should be set to drm_connector_helper_detect_from_ddc() and
cdv_hdmi_detect() should be deleted. The result is that ->detect_ctx
will detect the presence of a display and ->get_modes will update EDID
and other properties.
I guess I didn't get the memo on this one.

What's the problem with reading the EDID at detect? The subsequent
drm_edid_connector_add_modes() called from .get_modes() does not need to
read the EDID again.
Moreover, in this case .detect() only detects digital displays as
reported by EDID. If you postpone that to .get_modes(), the probe helper
will still report connected, and invent non-EDID fallback modes. The
behaviour changes.

The change in behavior is intentional, because the current test seems arbitrary. Does the driver not work with analog outputs?

Best regards
Thomas


I think it should be fine to do incremental refactors like the patch at
hand (modulo some issues I mention below).
Another issue in the patch is that it should also change .get_modes() to
not read the EDID again, but just call drm_edid_connector_add_modes().

Do you have  a device for testing such a change?

Best regards
