How do I get E-EDID with i.MX8MP?

OS:yocto-3.0 Zeus
HW：i.MX8MPLUSLPD4-EVK

E-EDID (E-EDID 2block or later) cannot be obtained correctly with i.MX8MP.
Therefore, if VSDB is defined as the second E-EDID, There are some inconveniences such as not being able to switch to HDMI mode(operating as DVI mode).

How should I obtain all E-EDIDs correctly in the kernel?

You can use modetest tool to get edid value.

Please check the driver drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/synopsys/dw-hdmi.c

EDID could not be obtained.

-> Trying to get EDID+E-EDID1-3block(128byte×4).

However, it is known that it will work if you obtain up to 1 block of E-EDID (128 bytes x 2).
Confirm by connecting to a different monitor than the first result.

There is no change even if you check.

Based on these results, we have concluded that if E-EDID 2block or higher is present, it will not be possible to obtain it correctly.

Therefore, if VSDB is in the 2nd block of E-EDID, the Kernel cannot switch DVI/HDMI mode correctly.

I've been looking into this, but haven't found a solution yet.

Hello Vivek Karna,

I was able to solve the problem by changing the I2c function from HDMI-only to general-purpose.

I modified the dts file as below.

Hello Vivek Karna,

I'm sorry.
Please refrain from presenting the file.
