            Bug ID: 108139
           Summary: My HDMI stopped working at Linux 4.18.8
           Product: DRI
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: Other
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: DRM/AMDgpu
          Assignee: dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: duncan_roe@optusnet.com.au

At Linux 4.18.8 the HDMI monitor started to report "No Signal" although Xorg
can see a screen when it's started.(There's no signal with or without X).
Using bisection, I found the change that caused this is commit to be
691f2d763d0731224439686ecf2d440df8fe910e:

+       }

        if (EXEC_BIOS_CMD_TABLE(UNIPHYTransmitterControl, params))
                result = BP_RESULT_OK;

Inserted printk stmts showed my monitor reports COLOR_DEPTH_121212. I suspect
the clock speed is too high for the video card, so the code needs to check the
card model before bumping the speed, but I don't know how to do that.
Here are all the details I an think of:
Video card (from lspci): VGA compatible controller:
Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Radeon R2 Graphics (rev ea)
Monitor (from /var/log/Xorg.0.log): Monitor name: DELL U2711
Ranges: V min: 49 V max: 86 Hz, H min: 29 H max: 113 kHz, PixClock max 285 MHz
Hardware name (from /var/log/debug):
HP HP Laptop 15-bw0xx/8330, BIOS F.11 07/05/2017
