With the commit 7f641e26a6df ("ALSA: hda/hdmi - Consider eld_valid
when reporting jack event"), the driver checks eld_valid before
reporting Jack state, this fixes the 4 HDMI/DP audio devices issue.

But recently some users complained that the hdmi audio on their
machines couldn't work anymore with this commit. On their machines,
the monitor_present is 1 while the eld_valid is 0 when plugging a
monitor, and the hdmi audio could work even the eld_valid is 0.

To make the hdmi audio work again on those machines, adding a module
parameter, if usrs want to skip the checking eld_valid, they
could set checking_eld_valid=0 when loading the module. And this
parameter only applies to sense_via_verbs, for those getting eld via
component, no need to apply this parameter since it is impossible
that present is 1 while eld_valid is 0.

Well, this sort of module option is rather a last resort, so I
hesitate to apply this.

The bug reports in the above are a bit hard to digest quickly.
Could you tell exactly which hardware (and drivers) show the problem?

FWIW, amdgpu driver already got the audio-component binding recently,
so this problem shouldn't be triggered, at least in this code path.
And, for nouveau and radeon, I already submitted the patches to
support the audio-component binding, but by some reason they haven't
been merged to the upstream.  In that case, we'd need to ping DRM
guys.


thanks,

Takashi

On the second thought, I wonder whether eld_valid would be corrected
later by the graphics side at all.  If yes, it's a timing issue, and
it can be corrected with the repolling.

A totally untested patch is below.

I know the amdgpu driver already supported audio-component, I guess it 
will fix this problem. But it is not easy to backport the related 
patches to ubuntu 4.15 and 5.0 kernels. It will be better if we could 
figure out a fix for sense_via_verbs() too. :-)

I will build a testing kernel with this patch and let the bug reporter 
test it.

Hello Takashi,

Tested the patch,  it didn't work. The driver always failed to read the 
speaker allocation from snd_hdmi_get_eld_ati().

This is the dmesg after adding the patch:

https://launchpadlibrarian.net/451420819/dmesg (both presence and 
eld_valid bits are set, but can't get the speaker_alloc)

Regards,

Hui.

So it's likely a bug in the graphics driver :)

In anyway, it indicates that it's not about eld_valid check itself.
The eld_valid was returned correctly together with the monitor_present
flag.

I guess the system worked casually with your patch to ignore eld_valid
because we don't care much about the channel mapping if channels <= 2.
IOW, another workaround would be to ignore the error if channels <=
2.

But I wonder whether this state persists after this resume moment.
Could you check what happens if you unload / reload the HD-audio
driver?  Does the read of spk_alloc still fail?


thanks,

Takashi
