DisplayPort Output on X1

x1tester62 · May 25, 2016, 7:09pm

Hey all.

I’m working with a custom carrier module I’ve made which integrates with the X1. I am trying to use a display port output though instead of HDMI and am having difficulty figuring out what in the software needs to be changed to enable this (HDMI works out of the box on the jetson board).

Has anyone tried doing displayport output?

I assume something needs to be changed in the device tree.
I found in tegra210-jetson-cv-prods.dtsi the main register writes for the SOR1 display interface (same interface I’ve hooked my DP interface on).

I also see other dts files referencing display port, though going through the list of includes I do not believe they are being used (tegra210-ers* files).

Note I am using the same pins on my board that the standard X1 jetson carrier board (p2597) uses for its HDMI output. These pins being DP1/HDMI:

E36
E35
D37
D36
C38
C37
E39
E38
A35
A34
A33

I believe SOR1 can be either DP or HDMI and it just uses these same pins.
My assumption would be some software work must be done to define that it is using DP instead of HDMI and this is where i am stuck.

Comparing my bootup to the standard X1 carriers bootup, i see my graphics driver faults with a message “[ 5.266421] can not determine display type”

I traced this to an error thrown by /video/tegra/dc/of_dc.c

Hi x1tester62,

Yes, HDMI and DP share the same pins. Default design is for HDMI output, so before software work, the hardware rework is needed as the circuit design has a little difference. Suggest to refer to chapter7.3, figure17/18/19, JetsonTX1_OEM_Product_DesignGuide.pdf to do changes.

x1tester62 · May 26, 2016, 1:49pm

I followed those figures and believe everything is hooked up correctly.
I actually have my board in house already and am testing.

Hence I am now onto the software work and that is where I am confused as what to do next.

SakirSoft · May 26, 2016, 10:32pm

So basically this also mean not HDMI and DP at the same tine as I understand it.
Is this right?

Trumany · May 27, 2016, 4:33am

Yes, as they share same pins.

x1tester62 · June 2, 2016, 4:06pm

Still no info on what software changes need to be made to get DP to work?

jachen · June 13, 2016, 9:11am

Hello, x1tester62:
You are right. There are some other software changes to bring-up DP1. The BSP released enables HDMI by default.

in arch/arm64/configs/tegra21_defconfig, enable DP by adding
CONFIG_TEGRA_DP=y
in pinmux DTS file, switch pcc1 to dp mode:
nvidia,function = “dp”;
add proper dp DTS file and include that file in arch/arm64/boot/dts/tegra210-jetson-e-base-p2595-0000-a00.dts
(please refer to sample file in BSP package)
Add power information in host1x of file arch/arm64/boot/dts/tegra210-jetson-e-base-p2595-0000-a00.dts like:
/* dp */
vdd-dp-pwr-supply = <&vdd_3v3>;
avdd-dp-pll-supply = <&max77620_sd3>;
vdd-edp-sec-mode-supply = <&vdd_sys_boost>;
vdd-dp-pad-supply = <&max77620_ldo8>;

Hey jachen.

Thanks for the help but currently am still having trouble.
Here is where i am currently at. Note i am on a p2597-2180 board.

I enabled CONFIG_TEGRA_DP

File:tegra210-jetson-cv-base-p2597-2180-a00.dts
Change:
#include “tegra210-platforms/tegra210-ers-dp-e2220-1170-a00.dtsi”
/this was the only ‘dp’ related file I could find so i included it/

File: tegra210-jetson-cv-punmux-p2597-2180-a00.dtsi
Change:
hdmi_int_dp_hpd_pcc1 {
nvidia,pins = “hdmi_int_dp_hpd_pcc1”;
nvidia,function = “dp”;
nvidia,pull = <TEGRA_PIN_PULL_DOWN>;
nvidia,tristate = <TEGRA_PIN_DISABLE>;
nvidia,enable-input = <TEGRA_PIN_ENABLE>;
nvidia,io-high-voltage = <TEGRA_PIN_DISABLE>;
};

File: tegra210-jetson-cv-power-tree-p2597-2180-a00.dtsi
Change:
host1x {
dc@54200000 {
avdd_dsi_csi-supply = <&max77620_ldo0>;
avdd_lcd-supply = <&en_avdd_disp_3v3>;
dvdd_lcd-supply = <&en_dvdd_disp_1v8>;
vdd_lcd_bl_en-supply = <&lcd_bl_en>;
vdd_lcd_bl-supply = <&vdd_3v3>;
/* eDP */
vdd_ds_1v8-supply = <&en_dvdd_disp_1v8>;
avdd_io_edp-supply = <&max77620_gpio7>;
/*DP */
vdd-dp-pwr-supply = <&vdd_3v3>;

vdd-edp-sec-mode-supply = <&vdd_sys_boost>;
vdd-dp-pad-supply = <&max77620_ldo8>;
};

Hello, x1tester62:
What kind of problem you met?
Generally, to bring-up it, you may have to check some signals and try to figure out why it fails, and then check the corresponding software configurations.

simply not getting any video on the diplayport connector. Will pull out a scope when I get the chance to see if anything is present.

Do the edits I made make sense though?

x1tester62 · July 21, 2016, 9:56pm

I’m still having major issues getting DP to work.
I am now at the point where i have an fb being probed and mounted but i still don’t know if it is actually working (i’m still getting nothing out on a monitor).

I got this far by editing my dts and doing some hacks in /video/tegra/dc to force sor1 id 1
My dts has the following under host1x:

/* tegradc.1 */
dc@54240000 {
	status = "okay";
	nvidia,dc-flags = <TEGRA_DC_FLAG_ENABLED>;
	nvidia,emc-clk-rate = <300000000>;
	nvidia,cmu-enable = <1>;
	nvidia,fb-bpp = <32>; /* bits per pixel */
	nvidia,fb-flags = <TEGRA_FB_FLIP_ON_PROBE>;
	/* dp */
	vdd-dp-pwr-supply = <&vdd_3v3>;
	avdd-dp-pll-supply = <&max77620_sd3>;
	vdd-edp-sec-mode-supply = <&vdd_sys_boost>;
	vdd-dp-pad-supply = <&max77620_ldo8>;			
};
sor1 {
	nvidia,sor1-output-type = "dp";
	status = "okay";
	compatible = "dp, display";
	dp-display {
		status = "okay";
		compatible = "dp, display";
		nvidia,is_ext_dp_panel = <1>;		
		disp-default-out {
			nvidia,out-type = <TEGRA_DC_OUT_DP>;
			nvidia,out-align = <TEGRA_DC_ALIGN_MSB>;
			nvidia,out-order = <TEGRA_DC_ORDER_RED_BLUE>;
			nvidia,out-flags = <TEGRA_DC_OUT_CONTINUOUS_MODE>;
			nvidia,out-pins = <TEGRA_DC_OUT_PIN_H_SYNC TEGRA_DC_OUT_PIN_POL_LOW
					   TEGRA_DC_OUT_PIN_V_SYNC TEGRA_DC_OUT_PIN_POL_LOW
					   TEGRA_DC_OUT_PIN_PIXEL_CLOCK TEGRA_DC_OUT_PIN_POL_LOW
					   TEGRA_DC_OUT_PIN_DATA_ENABLE TEGRA_DC_OUT_PIN_POL_HIGH>;
			nvidia,out-parent-clk = "pll_d2";
		};
	};
};

i now have the following printing to dmesg:

tegradc tegradc.1: Display dc.54240000 registered with id=1

All. I got a little further and hotplug is now being detected. So i can unplug and replug and the X1 recognizes. In addition, my monitor displays a no sync detected message when the plug is not plugged in, but removes the message once attached to the X1.

Unfortunately i am only getting a black screen though.

Here is my current dmesg output:

and when i run startx i still get the same segmentation fault i had in my previous post. Any ideas?

This is on sor1 forcing an id of 1 in the \dc\ files.

Again i made some mods to the video/tegra/dc/ files to force ID 1 so sor1 mounts and not sor. But besides that it should all be the same.

x1tester62 · July 25, 2016, 4:08pm

All

I was able to change my kernel command line to boot the console to my fb1 (instead of default fb0) and that worked.

I get the console printing to my DisplayPort monitor. Hence at a baseline harware level it is working which is a relief to know. I now know this is definitely a software/driver issue and not a hardware issue.

I am still stuck getting the SegFault from the nvidia driver. I tried using fbdev instead of nvidia and it does not segfault, but it also doesn’t work.

Let me know if there is any advice in how to determine what can be causing this segfault. I see the main error is “(EE) NVIDIA(GPU-0): Failed to initialize client”

linuxdev · July 25, 2016, 4:26pm

Here’s the interesting part of the log near the end:

(**) NVIDIA(0): Enabling 2D acceleration
NVIDIA(GPU-0): Failed to initialize client
(EE)
(EE) Backtrace:
(EE)
(EE) Segmentation fault at address 0x48
(EE)
Fatal server error:
(EE) Caught signal 11 (Segmentation fault). Server aborting

Right after showing the enabling 2D part it should say something like this:

Valid display device(s) on GPU-0 at SoC
     DFP-0

So it all looks good until it tries to detect what display is connected. If you use serial console or ssh you should be able to continue using command line without the display functioning. I suggest install packages “read-edid” and “edid-decode”, then seeing if these commands work:

get-edid | parse-edid
get-edid | edid-decode

These read the i2c DDC/EDID data…which is probably what the X server was doing at the moment of failure.

x1tester62 · July 25, 2016, 5:54pm

Welp looks like my schematic has a little error on the AUX lines that i’m gonna to have to fix. That would explain why they aren’t reading anything properly from the monitor.

Ill have to try and tack a wire on and see if it works. Thanks a ton for the help.

Quick question, does the Nvidia’s driver support communication to the monitor via the new DP aux protocl or does it only support I2C uses these Aux lines?

x1tester62 · July 25, 2016, 6:29pm

Fixed the error real quick, still nothing changed. Looking back it looks like it may not have been necessary.

running the get-edid commands fail with the following:

But i tried this on the jetson dev board as well and it gives the exact same error.

Maybe something wrong with the command? maybe the address is wrong?

so the aux lines are definitely there. again don’t know why get-edid doesn’t work but it doesn’t work on the eval board either.

So my monitor is able to send its edid over the host pc as shown here. Don’t know if the nvidia driver is able to read it though.
