Yeah, interestingly I had one similar event last evening. Upon starting the X user session from lightdm the eDP link failed and was unable to sync again. Also there seems to be a correlation between enabling i2s0 and i2s2 and failure of the eDP link. Thus I disabled i2s0 and i2s2 in my devicetree. It is happening too seldomly to me to pin it to anything yet though.

EDIT: I've pushed an additional commit to my gitlab branch that slows the display clock a tat. While I don't think it will make any difference you are welcome to test it out.

Thanks. I'll do some testing and let you know.

Two new feature in the mainline kernel as of now:
  • USB-C charging is working (wow, the dt-binding docs of the fusb302 are really shitty)
  • Bootup time reduced from more than 3 minutes to less than 30 seconds through new defconfig

Reduced boot time will be very welcome. I'll grab that in a second..

I didn't see any benefit from the changed display timings, nor from disabling i2s0 and i2s2. However I chased the error message into the code and came up with a simple DT change to get the driver to tolerate a missing HPD signal. I will need to turn on the debug messages to be absolutely sure I'm still reproducing the original problem but in the mean time if anyone else is having this kind of trouble then the following may help:

Nice find! This might indeed be a problem. HPD of the panel is not connected, so this should probably have been in the devicetree all along. Thanks

I noticed that the maximum clock is 1.8GHz in the Manjaro build, but the Ubuntu and Debian ones are able to go to 2.02GHz. Can this build be clocked to 2.02GHz as well?

Sure. I've added a 2 GHz operating power point @1.3V. One of the next manjaro builds will probably include this change.
