HDMI uses the DDC I2C bus for communicating various bits of link status
out of band with the actual HDMI video signal. This information can be
useful for debugging issues like questionable cables sabotaged by feline
teeth, Enthusiast Grade cables made of cow fencing wire, and other such
problems that ruin one's media viewing plans.

Consequently, this series exposes various bits of pertinent information
from the SCDC protocol in an HDMI connector's debugfs. To continually
poll the link status, userspace can poll the debugfs file.

---
Changes in v9:
- Unlock mode_config.mutex on disconnected connector early exit
- Calculate and print Reed-Solomon error corrections counter on != 4
  lane FRL as well. Technically a functional change to an already
  reviewed patch, but I kept the R-b because it's so minor.
- Link to v8: https://patch.msgid.link/20260722-scdc-link-health-v8-0-cd1dacbb85d9@collabora.com

Changes in v8:
- Acquire mode_config mutex in an interruptible way during
  scdc_status_show to avoid racing connector state
- Remove scdc_debugfs_priv, use connector as debugfs entry priv instead
- Allocate and free state in scdc_status_show, since it doesn't need to
  persist across debugfs reads
- Check for NULL ddc in drm_scdc_read_state in the unlikely event an
  EDID with the SCDC flag was forced on a connector with no DDC
- Note: drm_connector_get() is omitted from drm_scdc_debugfs_init
  because drm_scdc_debugfs_init is called on connector construction and
  the debugfs is removed on connector destruction. Adding a redundant
  reference increase here would necessitate introducing a destruction
  callback to mirror the debugfs_init connector op for the sole purpose
  of decreasing the counter again.
- Link to v7: https://patch.msgid.link/20260721-scdc-link-health-v7-0-92df1b6ad5fc@collabora.com

Changes in v7:
- Move HDMI debugfs registration to new state helper, fix up all users
  (sun4i, vc4, bridge)
- Register scdc debugfs in new hdmi debugfs helper
- Link to v6: https://patch.msgid.link/20260611-scdc-link-health-v6-0-6307875a6b5e@collabora.com

Changes in v6:
- Fix off-by-one error in drm_scdc_read_state
- Link to v5: https://patch.msgid.link/20260604-scdc-link-health-v5-0-11173b0ac3de@collabora.com

Changes in v5:
- Read all SCDC data regardless of update flags
- Dump SCDC data as hex before the human-readable output. It's separated
  with "\n----------------\n\n".
- No longer write 0 to read-only registers
- Add Reed-Solomon Corrections counter parsing
- Parsing has been kept. A desire was expressed to get this data without
  any external userspace tooling, and the kernel will need to parse it
  eventually anyway to set the link status.
- Functions have been made static as of right now, since external users
  may do another pass over the function signatures anyway.
- Link to v4: https://patch.msgid.link/20260527-scdc-link-health-v4-0-622ea40a1f59@collabora.com

Changes in v4:
- Don't use C struct bitfields for parsing status flags. Switch to
  bitwise AND for boolean flags, and FIELD_GET for multi-bit values.
- Drop the superfluous !! and parens
- Drop the __pure attributes on static functions
- Initialise stack local arrays with {}, not { 0 }.
- I've kept the print macros and %-30s format. Reason being that I don't
  want to repeat the format specifier and str_yes_no(foo) a bunch, and I
  like the %-30s format because it means all values are aligned with the
  value of the longest field, which is 30 chars long.
- Link to v3: https://patch.msgid.link/20260526-scdc-link-health-v3-0-59e4a4aaead1@collabora.com

Changes in v3:
- Add patch to change return type of drm_scdc_read/write.
- Rework error counter reading to duplicate less code.
- Also check lane 3 counter valid flag when reading its error counter.
- Use memset to clear buf for error counters, rather than doing it in
  the loop.
- Make read_error_counters not accept 0 as num_lanes; fix it up in the
  caller instead.
- Link to v2: https://patch.msgid.link/20260520-scdc-link-health-v2-0-511af18cd64b@collabora.com

Changes in v2:
- Add HDMI 2.1 SCDC status reporting
- Link to v1: https://patch.msgid.link/20260415-scdc-link-health-v1-0-8e731e88eaf0@collabora.com

drm_scdc_read and drm_scdc_write, both of which are only used within
drm_scdc_helper (although exported), use a ssize_t as their return type.

This would make sense if they returned the number of bytes read/written
on success, and negative errno otherwise. However, they return 0 on
success.

Demote them to "int" as their return type, in order to avoid needlessly
using 64 bits when less suffices.

No functional change.

SCDC provides status information on the current display link. At the
very least, it may be useful to expose this info through debugfs.

Add a debugfs entry for it under the connector, which displays a few
more details parsed out of the SCDC registers. A new
drm_scdc_debugfs_init function can be called by the connector
implementation to initialise the debugfs file.

HDMI 2.1 redefines previously reserved fields in SCDC for various new
uses. No version check needs to be performed, as an HDMI 2.0 sink's
reserved SCDC fields are well-defined to be 0, and any zero-ness of
these fields for an HDMI 2.0 sink is not a surprise for SCDC parsers for
HDMI 2.1.

Implement reading and outputting these fields over debugfs.

The HDMI debugfs files are only useful for connectors that already make
use of the HDMI state helpers. In addition, relying on HDMI-specific
functions in drm_debugfs.c can lead to circular linking problems later
down the line.

Move hdmi_debugfs_add() and friends to a new helper in
drm_hdmi_state_helper.c, and make all current users (vc4, sun4i, bridge)
either use it as a debugfs_init func, or call it directly in its
debugfs_init func.

Initialise the SCDC debugfs file for connectors that call the HDMI state
helper's debugfs_init helper. This makes all connectors that use the
helper expose the scdc_status file in their connector debugfs.

Is there a reason we can't add a character device node for this similar
to DP AUX? See config DRM_DISPLAY_DP_AUX_CHARDEV.

It's ultimately more generic than deciphering everything in kernel.

You already can just point tools at the ddc symlink to the i2c dev.

glut of errors.
