Hi Tim,
We're almost there. Two more comments:

This condition looks more like a ENOLCK.
Or perhaps it should be:
if (!vper && !hper && !hsper) return -ENOLINK; if (!vper || !hper || !hsper) return -ENOLCK;I would recommend that you test a bit with no signal and a bad signal (perhaps one that uses a pixelclock that is too high for this device?).
I can't figure out how to produce a signal that can't be locked onto with what I have available.
Are you using a signal generator or just a laptop or something similar as the source?
Without a good signal generator it is tricky to test this. A very long HDMI cable would likely do it. But for 1080p60 you probably need 20 meters or more.
I'm using a Marshall V-SG4K-HDI (http://www.lcdracks.com/racks/DLW/V-SG4K-HDI-signal-generator.php). It does support 'user defined timings' (see http://www.lcdracks.com/racks/pdf-pages/instruction_sheets/V-SG4K-HDI_Manual... Timings Details Menu page) and it looks like the max pixel-clock is 300MHz so perhaps I can create a timing that can't be locked onto that way.
The TDA19971 datasheet (http://tharvey/src/nxp/tda1997x/TDA19971-datasheet-rev3.pdf) says it supports: - All HDTV formats up to 1920x1080p at 50/60 Hz with support for reduced blanking - 3D formats including all primary formats up to 1920x1080p at 30 Hz Frame Packing and 1920x1080p at 60 Hz Side-by-Side and Top-and-Bottom - PC formats up to UXGA (1600x1200p at 60 Hz) and WUXGA (1920x1200p at 60 Hz)

Does 'detecting input' equate to 'I see a signal and I am locked'? I gather from the irq function that sets these values that it is closer to 'I see a signal' and that 'I am locked' is something you would test by looking at the vper/hper/hsper.
The TDA19972 and/or TDA19973 has an A and B input but only a single output. I'm not entirely clear if/how to select between the two and I don't have proper documentation for the three chips.
The TDA19971 which I have on my board only has 1 input which is reported as the 'A' input. I can likely nuke the stuff looking at the B input and/or put some qualifiers around it but I didn't want to remove code that was derived from some vendor code that might help support the other chips in the future. So I would rather like to leave the 'if A or B' stuff.
OK. Can you add a comment somewhere in the driver about this?
It sounds like it is similar to what the adv7604 has: several inputs but only one is used for streaming. But the EDID is made available on both inputs.
sure, I will comment about it. I believe that is the way the it works as well.
*status = 0;else {vper = io_read24(sd, REG_V_PER) & MASK_VPER;hper = io_read16(sd, REG_H_PER) & MASK_HPER;hsper = io_read16(sd, REG_HS_WIDTH) & MASK_HSWIDTH;v4l2_dbg(1, debug, sd, "timings:%d/%d/%d\n", vper, hper, hsper);if (!vper || !hper || !hsper)*status |= V4L2_IN_ST_NO_SYNC;else*status |= V4L2_IN_ST_NO_SIGNAL;So if we have valid vper, hper and hsper, then there is no signal? That doesn't make sense.
I'd expect to see something like this:
if (!input_detect[0] && !input_detect[1]) // no signal else if (!vper || !hper || !vsper) // no sync else // have signal and syncsure... reads a bit cleaner. I can't guarantee that any of vper/hper/vsper will be 0 if a signal can't be locked onto without proper documentation or ability to generate such a signal. I do know if I yank the source I get non-zero random values and must rely on the input_detect logic.
Add a comment about this as well. It's good to be clear that this code is partially guesswork and partially based on testing.
ok
I'm not sure about the precise meaning of input_detect, so I might be wrong about that bit.
ya... me either. I'm trying my hardest to get this driver up to shape but the documentation I have is utter crap and I'm doing some guessing as well as to what all the registers are and what the meaning of the very obfuscated vendor code does.
would you object to detecting timings and displaying via v4l2_dbg when a resolution change is detected (just not 'using' those timings for anything?):
No, not at all. Also useful is to log the detected timings in the log_status call. It is *very* handy when testing.
I.e. if 'v4l2-ctl --log-status' gives you both the configured timings and the detected timings, then that makes it much easier to debug the driver.
ok

Right.
I'll wait for v11 and I'll make a pull request for it.
hopefully I'll get to v11 later today.
Thanks!
