[PATCH] drm/bridge: tc358767: check regmap_write() return values
From: Жамбакиев Радий Рикардинович
Date: Thu Aug 20 2026 - 08:03:08 EST
commit 6d0c38315915 ("drm/bridge: tc358767: Drop custom
tc_write()/tc_read() accessors") replaced the tc_write() macro,
which bailed out on failure, with direct regmap_write() calls.
At three sites the error check was not carried over,
so the return value is overwritten before it is ever examined:
The DP0_VIDSYNCDELAY write in tc_set_edp_video_mode(), and
both DP_PHY_CTRL writes in the main link PHY reset sequence in
tc_main_link_enable(), whose error is clobbered by the following
PHY_RDY poll.
As a result, failed I2C transactions to the bridge are silently
ignored. A failed DP0_VIDSYNCDELAY write can leave the stream running
with stale THRESH_DLY and VID_SYNC_DLY values, causing display
corruption without any error being reported. A failed PHY reset
sequence can leave the main link PHY in reset; the PHY_RDY poll may
still succeed because the bit was set during the initial AUX link
setup, so link training proceeds on a bad PHY, or the real I2C error
is masked by a misleading "timeout waiting for phy become ready".
Propagate the errors instead.
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
