What's the hang kernel log. Is it a oops?

> Possible relation with HPD?

Yes,  I think there might be something wrong with the HPD interrupt or
the EDID ready interrupt.
I do meet the similar issue before when I using the upstream adv7511
driver to enable adv7533.
I found that the HPD and EDID interrupt is not reliable.
In order to get modes stably, I have to add some delay like bellow:

i made some progress in identifying the issue...
When my driver calls drm_fb_helper_initial_config it seems DRM blocks waiting for register_framebuffer to return.
The sequence is drm_fb_helper_initial_config->drm_fb_helper_single_fb_probe->register_framebuffer.

Its strange because register_framebuffer function is just a mutex around do_register_framebuffer.

Any clue?!

hi...

i just found that its blocking waiting for console_lock...
@vineet, alexey: i think that console_lock is architecture dependent right? Do you know any issue with console_lock for ARC?

Ah, the curse of console_lock. drm_fb_helper_initial_config also does
the initial modeset if you have fbcon enabled. But because of locking
stupidity we must do _all_ that code (which means pretty much your
entire driver) under the console_lock, which means no log output until
console_unlock. Not even on serial port.

https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/57951/ is the usual hack to
use to get rid of console_lock while booting, so that you can see
where your driver crashes. I guess we should explain this in the
kerneldoc ...

Once console_lock is acquired, you will not see any further prints
whilst it is held. Likely your driver is hanging/crashing whilst
holding console_lock, which you don't see. See the patch just sent to
the list to document how to debug issues which happen under
console_lock.

Cheers,
Daniel

Didn't spot this at the time, but that should probably quash the
WARN_ON_CONSOLE_UNLOCKED warnings as well ...

it is a generic thing..  all arch's are afflicted by console_lock..
