DDC communication failed for Display Port attached monitor

Open jnhmn opened this issue 8 years ago • 51 comments

Hello

I'm using 2 monitors LG 24EB23. Both attached to an Radeon R9 290 using the amdgpu driver on an Arch linux with the latest kernel (4.10.8)

I can control the monitor attached via DVI with ddcutil. But not the one attached via DP

   DDC communication failed
   Is DDC/CI enabled in the monitor's on-screen display?

(I've stripped the serial number from the first hex dump, the second was already empty)

Have you tried swapping the monitors? Though the monitors have the same model string, the EDIDs show that they are slightly different. Does the problem stay with the monitor, or with the DisplayPort connection?

Is DDC/CI enabled in the OSD?

Please run the command "ddcutil environment --verbose" and send the output as an attachment.

From ddcutil's perspective, there's no difference between a DisplayPort and non-DisplayPort connection. That the video driver emulates the I2C bus over the DisplayPort AUX channel should be transparent. However, given the newness of the amdgpu driver I wouldn't be surprised if there are issues. I have a RX280 card in a test system. I'll make a point of testing it with amdgpu/DisplayPort.

I've not directly swapped the monitors due to a short DVI cable, but the problem stays with the DP connection (same cable, never had problems with it) If I attach the previous DVI-Monitor via DP, its manufacture year and EDID-version changes (2014->2013; 1.3->1.4) (I have rebooted the system to verify it)

I have no idea, how to enable DDC/CI in the OSD or if it can be disabled.

Also the EDID information for the DP monitor do not show up every time (see both attached files) ddcenv.txt ddcenv2.txt

please tell me, if I can provide further information.

Edit: The problem also exists under Windows 8.1 with the ScreenBright tool And the problem also exists if I attach the DP monitor to the integrated Intel i915 card (Sandy Bridge) I begin to think that there is a problem with the monitor itself and not with the video card.

I've looked in the user manual for your monitor, and it doesn't appear there's any setting to control DDC/CI, which is very unusual. The manual states the monitor is DDC2B compliant. DDC2B is an older iteration in the DDC family of specs, but it probably means the monitor supports DDC/CI.

Also the EDID information for the DP monitor do not show up every time (see both attached files) ddcenv.txt https://github.com/rockowitz/ddcutil/files/904201/ddcenv.txt ddcenv2.txt https://github.com/rockowitz/ddcutil/files/904202/ddcenv2.txt

please tell me, if I can provide further information.

Given the i2cdetect also reports unexpected data for the I2C device on DisplayPort, and the kind of failures observed, I'm pretty certain this is an issue of the I2C over DisplayPort Aux Channel implementation in the amdgpu driver, which is not surprising given that it's still under active development. If I can replicate the problem I'll file a bug report. Unfortunately there's not a spare DisplayPort monitor here, and it will take some rearrangement to free up one of the monitors with a DisplayPort connection for use on the test system, so that may take a few days.

I have a similar problem here with an secondary Acer XB270HU on DP (only has that as connectivity). Manual states DDC2B support, works great on Windows but on linux no EDID and no DDC. Primary screen (Samsung SA850, also over DP) works great, even with DDC controls for brightness etc.

When plugging in the Acer:

I2C nack doesn't seem right. ddcutil returns: Failure getting EDID for /dev/i2c-9: status code=EREMOTEIO(-121): Remote I/O error but that makes sense if the kernel isn't able to set up I2C comms properly.

Since it works fine on Windows 10 with the GTX980, I will take a stab at booting a livecd on it and see where that gets me. I can also try the onboard i915 with it, have done neither yet.

Edit: fwiw this is with 4.12.4 and amdgpu on a HD7850

Gerben,

Please run the following commands as root and send the output as an attachment. Without that output its hard for me to say much.

ddcutil environment --verbose

ls -ld /sys/class/drm/card*/card-/i2c

(The latter command will go into the next point release of ddcutil.)

Looking at the code for drm_dp_i2c_do_msg.c, the errors are coming from the I2C-over-aux related code. Normally I'd suggest trying a DVI or HDMI connection, but that isn't an option for you. The problem may be in the amdgpu driver.

If using the i915 driver, be aware that there are issues with DisplayPort there as well, particularly when using a docking station.

Since it works fine on Windows 10 with the GTX980, I will take a stab at booting a livecd on it and see where that gets me. I can also try the onboard i915 with it, have done neither yet.

So here's the same monitor on a GTX980, Ubuntu 17.04 live:

Display 1
   I2C bus:             /dev/i2c-16
   Supports DDC:        true
   EDID synopsis:
      Mfg id:           ACR
      Model:            XB270HU
      Serial number:    #ASOQgqYB8LDd
      Model year      : 2013
      EDID version:     1.4
   VCP version:         2.2

Invalid display
   I2C bus:             /dev/i2c-19
   Supports DDC:        false
   EDID synopsis:
      Mfg id:           ACR
      Model:            XB270HU
      Serial number:    #ASOQgqYB8LDd
      Model year      : 2013
      EDID version:     1.4
   DDC communication failed

Clearly there is an EDID here since it's detected when plugged in this GTX980. And I even have ddccontrol working on i2c-16, which is nvkm-0000:01:00.0-aux-0009 I2C adapter - so clearly it's an issue with the aux code. e.g. ddcutil setvcp -b 16 10 50 sets brightness levels.

ddcutil env for the box with a gtx980 - acer on i2c-16 here as only monitor

ddcutil env for the box with a HD7850 - acer on i2c-9 here as second monitor, primary on i2c-8

So it's a mystery to me why it's not working on the radeon card; perhaps because this is a G-SYNC monitor and it's doing something non-standard?

infernix avatar Aug 04 '17 23:08 infernix

Gerben,

Re the GTX980 report, the Acer monitor is connected on DP-3. What is strange is that it has 2 different I2C buses assigned, i2c-16 and i2c-19. I2C slave address x50 (EDID) works for both, so you can read the EDID on both I2C buses. However, I2C slave address x37 (DDC) is active only on I2c-16, so DDC communication works only on bus I2C-16. I have occasionally seen this double I2C bus assignment for DisplayPort monitors on my own system, and have no idea what triggers it. However, the bottom line for the GTX980 with the nouveau driver is that ddcutil works. It detects i2c-16 as valid, and i2c-19 as invalid.

Re "HD7878" report, I assume you meant HD7870. However, there's no link to the report. Is this the card you're using with the amdgpu driver? Or was the original report for another card.

For each relevant card/driver combination, please send the output of the following commands, run as root, as attachments:

ddcutil environment ---verbose

ddcutil detect --verbose

ls -ld /sys/class/drm/card*/card*/i2c*

(Note that the last command is corrected from my prior email, which contained an extraneous "-" in the command.

I assume you are reading the comments over email since I fixed the link shortly after commenting; in any case, attached the data through Github this time. I included an interrogate as well.

gtx980-interrogate.txt gtx980-find-i2c.txt gtx980-env.txt gtx980-detect.txt

Note that these are 2 different machines with the same CPU model; the HD7850 machine is the dual monitor setup with Debian 9 and the GTX980 is windows box where I just use a Ubuntu 17.04 live boot.

I tested this also with just the Acer screen attached and with different DP cables but none of that had any effect. I am yet to try connecting the Acer to the onboard Intel DP.

Also, on the gtx980 with the Ubuntu live cd, there is no /sys/class/drm/card*/card*/i2c*; it looks almost as if all i2c devices are under the nouveau driver. I've attached a find /sys|grep i2c instead though can't say how useful that is; this may or may not be a kernel issue.

infernix avatar Aug 05 '17 16:08 infernix

Gerben,

This pretty clearly is an amdgpu driver issue. Your HD7850 is a GCN 1.0 card, and support for these cards by the amdgpu driver is marginal. The logs show errors in function drm_dp_i2c_do_msg in drm driver file drm_do_helper.c, reflecting lower level failures.

FWIW, I took the time to refresh my testbed system that has a R9 280X (Radeon 7970), also GCN 1.0, with amdgpu and kernel 4.10, and it does work.

Is there some reason you're using the amdgpu driver? What happens if you use the stable radeon driver?

Additional comment interspersed.

No particular reason for amdgpu, but the radeon driver yields the exact same thing. I've attached a new set of files with radeon driver; in this set you'll see that I turned on drm debugging, then unplugged and inserted the Acer. Look for 'I2C nack'.

hd7850-card-i2c-radeon.txt hd7850-interrogate-radeon.txt hd7850-env-radeon.txt hd7850-detect-radeon.txt

So it's pretty obviously an issue with both radeon and amdgpu failing to properly init the monitors I2C. I will try the screen on the Intel iGPU next.

Since it's clearly a kernel issue, do you know the best place to address this further? dri-users seems to be a dead list.

Thanks!

infernix avatar Aug 07 '17 11:08 infernix

Gerben,

Looks like the XB270HU does something the drivers don't expect. Only a couple (feeble) suggestions:

  • verify that DDC/CI is enabled in the OSD
  • Since you have a Windows system, try installing softMCCS from EnTech.
    They make I2C related chips, and softMCCS is their utility for testing I2C communication. It has excellent diagnostics.

As for mailing lists, I haven't great suggestions. Since the problem does occur on radeon, you might try posting there.

Finally, there's no need to be sending interrogate reports for this problem. Essentially, interrogate just wraps up detect --verbose, environment --verbose, and probe --verbose. probe examines monitor VCP features, which is meaningless if there's no DDC connectivity.

Regards, Sanford

The monitor does DDC/CI - it's enabled and cannot be turned off in the OSD. I've also attached it to intel iGPU, same problem (see interrogate). Also attached SoftMMCS report and log.

What is your hardware configuration? I2C-Over-Aux is an acknowledged problem area with the i915 driver (https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=100954), and other drivers also seem to have issues.

If you have ddcutil installed, please run "ddcutil env -v" and "ddcutil det -v" and send the output as attachments.

If you have i2c-tools installed, you can also run i2cdetect to see if slave addresses x50 and x37 are detected for any I2C device.

Yes, I'm using the i915 driver. However by now I've managed to get it to work, by using a display port to DVI adapter cable. I'm trying to switch inputs and the associated command does not support switching to DP input. This leads me to the suspicion that maybe the monitor itself is part of the problem. Still investigating.

t-animal avatar Mar 01 '18 15:03 t-animal

Are you (t-animal) and Gerben Meijer one and the same, or is it just coincidence that there are multiple postings on this thread today?

Do you know if the monitor supports VCP feature x60 (Input Source)?   One thing I've observed with feature x60 is that the observed values do not necessarily conform the the specs.   If you can, manually set the monitor to the desired input and use "ddcutil getvcp 60" to see what the actual value is.

rockowitz avatar Mar 01 '18 15:03 rockowitz

Nope, I'm not Gerben Meijer. Yes, it does support x60. That is exactly the feature I'm trying to use. However while the monitor has a D-SUB (VGA), DP and DVI Input ddutil lists these values when probing:

   Feature: 60 (Input Source)
      Values:
         01: VGA-1
         03: DVI-1
         04: DVI-2

None of these values support switching to the DP input and funnily the monitor doesn't even have a secondary DVI input. So I'm guessing the firmware is screwed up or something...

t-animal avatar Mar 01 '18 15:03 t-animal

Gerben,

I've taken a look at the interrogate logs you posted.  It certainly does seem to isolate the problem to the i915 driver. Note that there are acknowledged issues with the i915 DP i2c-over-aux implementation - see the later comments on https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=100954.

There's a difference in the amdgpu vs nouveau logs that I find puzzling.  When probing for features with the amdgpu driver, unsupported features are cleanly reported - i.e. the unsupported feature bit is set in a proper response packet.  This is as per the DDC spec.  With the nouveau driver, on the other hand, reading unsupported features fails because of retries exceeded.   The only interpretation I can come up with (and it's vague handwaving) is that it takes longer for the monitor to respond to a request for an unsupported feature, and that the amdgpu driver is more forgiving.

Hello, I am using a radeon gpu and a DDC CI capable monitor (mitsubishi RDT232WLM). Unfortunately the test result is also "Invalid display" and "DDC communication failed". Posting the output of ddcutil environment --verbose and ddcutil detect --verbose: detect.txt environment.txt

helionmelion avatar Mar 04 '19 15:03 helionmelion

I assume you're the same person as user magnesium who posted a similar query in AUR (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ddcutil/).

You're running a version of ddcutil (0.8.6) that's over a year old.  The current version, 0.9.5, is in AUR.  If you're actually using ddcutil, I suggest you upgrade.  That said, I don't believe your problem is related to the ddcutil version.

Your monitor is found on bus /dev/i2c-1.    Slave address x37 (DDC/CI) is not responding.  Among the several ways that the environment command probes for displays, it calls external program i2cdetect (i2cdetect -y 1), and that program too shows no response.

I'm afraid I don't have any very good suggestions for you.  The post on AUR indicates you've checked the DDC enabled setting in the OSD.  You might try running as root, though I don't see why that would make a difference.  You might also try using a different connector, though the specifications I've found, as well as the environment output, indicate there's no DisplayPort connector on this monitor and DisplayPort is the one connector that tends to show variation.

I'm glad to hear that switching from the HDMI to DVI connector on the monitor resolved the problem, though I must admit that the suggestion was a long shot.  In terms of circuitry, DVI and HDMI are essentially the same.  DVI connections are often reported as HDMI, and vice-versa.  What connectors were you using on the video card in each case?

Can I ask you run the interrogate command and send the output? I'll add a description of your monitors to www.ddcutil.com/monitor_notes.

In terms of circuitry, DVI and HDMI are essentially the same.

I didn't know that.

What connectors were you using on the video card in each case?

I'm using the same connectors on monitor and video card side. HDMI with HDMI, and DVI with DVI. No adapters of any kind.

Connecting both HDMI and DVI (but using DVI of course), the funcion loadvcp (profile) does not work. [ia@sun ~] % sudo ddcutil loadvcp ddcnight [1][8:59:34] Monitor not connected: RDT232WLM - 0Z247468AJ

So I have to disconnect HDMI permanently to use loadvcp.

Can I ask you run the interrogate command and send the output?

Of course. interrogateHDMIandDVI.txt interrogateDVIonly.txt interrogateHDMIonly.txt

Hoping this could help others. Thank you for your attention.

(Addendum) For the first time, I noted that OSD configurations for each connection is saved in a separate buffer, inside the monitor. Setting brightness and color for DVI does not interfere with HDMI saved config and vice versa. Perhaps could this be a clue.

You ran the interrogate command as user ia, not root, so lacked privileges to access the /dev/i2c devices.  Please run it as root.  Alternatively, you can create group i2c, assign the /dev/i2c devices to that group, grant RW access to the dev/i2c devices to members of that group, and assign user ia to the group.  See the comments at the end of the (current) interrogate output, or page Device Permissions http://www.ddcutil/i2c_permissions

You ran the interrogate command as user ia, not root, so lacked privileges to access the /dev/i2c devices. Please run it as root.

Here we go: ROOTinterrogateDVI.txt ROOTinterrogateHDMI.txt ROOTinterrogateHDMI+DVI.txt

Alternatively, you can create group i2c, assign the /dev/i2c devices to that group, grant RW access to the dev/i2c devices to members of that group, and assign user ia to the group. See the comments at the end of the (current) interrogate output, or page Device Permissions

I'll study about this and learn later Best Regards.

Thank you for sending the interrogate output. I have added an entry for the RDT232WLM to documentation page Notes on Specific Monitors http://www.ddcutil.com/monitor_notes

I have a similar issue as this, except for I am using (having trouble with) HDMI. My monitor is an ASUS VG248QE, DDC enabled in the OSD. It is also connected to a Windows 10 machine through an Nvidia GTX 780 GPU using Display Port, and DDC works there. However on Linux I am using Integrated AMD Vega Graphics with the amdgpu driver. More specifically the Ryzen 2400G, which uses Vega 11 graphics. Motherboard is a MSI Gaming Carbon Pro.

I'm using 0.9.5-1 of ddcutil on Arch Linux with the 5.0.5 Linux Kernel.

   Is DDC/CI enabled in the monitor's on-screen display?

Please run "sudo ddcutil env --verbose" or "sudo ddcutil interrogate" and send the output as an attachment.
