Under the current codes, the Connector selects the available encoder and bridge in order from index 0 to 4 (up to max_streams) when the connector's status changes to 'connected'. Why?

All MST-related checks (such as drm_dp_atomic_release_time_slots, drm_dp_mst_atomic_check, or others) are performed in the connector's atomic_check function. I believe this is because both num_slots and pbn are stored in the bridge, and we call this to get the drm_bridge.. So, please split them into connector and bridge checks, calling them from corresponding hooks. It might be easier to migrate completely to the bridge's atomic_check(). At least it will save us from this clumsy code getting the bridge for the connector. >>>> >>>>> + if (WARN_ON(!drm_bridge)) { >>>>> + rc = -EINVAL; >>>>> + goto end; >>>>> + } >>>>> + bridge = to_msm_dp_mst_bridge(drm_bridge); >>>>> + >>>>> + bridge_state = msm_dp_mst_br_priv_state(state, bridge); >>>>> + if (IS_ERR(bridge_state)) { >>>>> + rc = PTR_ERR(bridge_state); >>>>> + goto end; >>>>> + } >>>>> + >>>>> + if (WARN_ON(bridge_state->connector != connector)) { >>>>> + rc = -EINVAL; >>>>> + goto end; >>>>> + } >>>>> + >>>>> + slots = bridge_state->num_slots; >>>>> + if (slots > 0) { >>>>> + rc = drm_dp_atomic_release_time_slots(state, >>>>> + &mst->mst_mgr, >>>>> + mst_conn->mst_port); >>>>> + if (rc) { >>>>> + DRM_ERROR("failed releasing %d vcpi slots %d\n", slots, rc); >>>>> + goto end; >>>>> + } >>>>> + vcpi_released = true; >>>>> + } >>>>> + >>>>> + if (!new_conn_state->crtc) { >>>>> + /* for cases where crtc is not disabled the slots are not >>>>> + * freed by drm_dp_atomic_release_time_slots. this results >>>>> + * in subsequent atomic_check failing since internal slots >>>>> + * were freed but not the dp mst mgr's >>>>> + */ >>>>> + bridge_state->num_slots = 0; >>>>> + bridge_state->connector = NULL; >>>>> + bridge_state->msm_dp_panel = NULL; >>>>> + >>>>> + drm_dbg_dp(dp_display->drm_dev, "clear best encoder: %d\n", bridge->id); >>>>> + } >>>>> + } >>>> >>>> This looks like there are several functions fused together.

I believe this is because the allocation and release of connectors happen during hotplug events, which have a different lifecycle from other devices. If we use kzalloc(), we would need to manually free the memory.

From what I’ve seen in other drivers, these two properties are registered for each MST connector. > https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/ drivers/gpu/drm/i915/display/intel_dp_mst.c?h=v6.16-rc2#n1618 I was thinking about the drm_connector_attach_dp_subconnector_property(), but it seems it's not used for MST connectors. However, we should definitely be setting the path property, see drm_connector_set_path_property(). >>>> >>>>> + >>>>> + drm_modeset_unlock_all(dev); >>>>> + > -- With best wishes Dmitry
