Since DRM encoder type for few encoders can be similar
(like eDP and DP) find out if the interface supports HPD
from encoder bridge to differentiate between builtin
and pluggable displays.

Changes in v1:
- add connector type in the disp_info (Dmitry)
- add helper functions to know encoder type
- update commit text reflecting the change

Changes in v2:
- avoid hardcode of connector type for DSI as it may not be true (Dmitry)
- get the HPD information from encoder bridge

No. This is not what you should be checking (hint: polled connectors also can be pluggable).

Please check the type of the actual connector connected to this encoder.


Even if we check the connector type as DSI or eDP that does not necessarily mean its built-in.

We can even use DSI or eDP as a pluggable display.

Well, I don't think so. eDP and DSI connectors are not pluggable per design. One can use them so, but they are not thought to be used this way. Unlike e.g. HDMI, DP, VGA, etc.

I would say LVDS, eDP, DSI, DPI and SPI can be assumed to be constantly plugged.

Compare this with Composite, SVIDEO, 9PinDIN, TV. They can be assumed to be external even if they do not have the HPD (or even polling). And these connectors usually don't have it.


Thats why we thought of this check.
