The Displayport Link Layer Compliance Testing Specification 1.2 rev 1.1
specifies that repeated AUX transactions after a failure (no response /
invalid response) must have a minimum delay of 400us before the resend can
occur. Tests 4.2.1.1 and 4.2.1.2 are two tests that require this specifically.

V2:
- Changed udelay() to usleep_range()
V3:
- Removed extraneous check for timeout
- Updated comment to reflect this change

Where did the DP_AUX_CH_CTL_TIME_OUT_ERROR handling go?

Yeah I had to squish it in there to keep it under 80 columns. Needs the 
'*' on the left side too though. I'll fix that and repost.

As I recall, previous review feedback indicated that the timeout 
condition there was already accounted for.

on 12/15, Paulo commented:

One thing to notice is that if we get a TIME_OUT_ERROR I guess it
means we already waited our standard timeout (which is either 400, 600
or 1600, depending on the platform), so shouldn't we just do the
usleep() after the RECEIVE_ERROR error?


When I checked the BSpec, that seemed to be the case so I removed the 
TIME_OUT_ERROR. Without this
code in place, we still pass the compliance tests for AUX transactions, 
one of which is for a no-reply transaction.
That case specifically should hit the TIME_OUT_ERROR if it was going to 
occur, I would think.

If you can give me a case where that becomes an issue, it's a simple fix 
to add it back in there.

Not doing the usleep for the timeout error does seem sane enough to me,
but I didn't actually read through the specs to confirm that.

However my concern is that you no longer check the timeout error bit
at all inside the loop and instead just check the done bit even when the
timeout error may have happened. Now, I'm not sure both bits can actually
be set at the same time, but if they can't the original error check was
entirely redundant. So it would seem safer to keep checking both error
bits before the done bit.

While there's no harm in checking the timeout bit here, does it really 
make sense to do so unless we're
going to take action on it? As you said, it seems reasonable enough to 
not wait an addition 400-500us,
so is there something else to do? It may be worth logging the error just 
to make sure there's some
record of when it happens, even if we're not going to do anything else.

As for exclusion between the two bits, the BSpec makes no indication 
that they're exclusive of one another. So
it's entirely possible to have both set.

I agree with Ville here. See below.

Before this patch, we would check the bit and then run "continue",
regardless of the state of DP_AUX_CH_CTL_DONE. With your patch, we
don't check for the _TIME_OUT bit, which means that if both _TIME_OUT
and _CTL_DONE bits are set, we will "break" instead of the old
behavior. I think Ville's point is that we should probably continue
with the old behavior, especially since this patch is just about
adding a new sleep call, and not the specific interaction of _TIME_OUT
and _CTL_DONE.

I'm not sure adding a log message here is a good idea: we're probably
going to flood dmesg on a case that is somewhat expected and
recoverable. We already print an error message in case we finish the
loop without _CTL_DONE set, so I think we're covered regarding error
printing already: just run "continue" without logging anything since
we're going to retry anyway.

I see what you're saying. That was an oversight on my part. Thanks for 
catching it. Updated patch will be here shortly.

Fair enough, although I'm not sure I'd agree that it's a somewhat 
expected case. It's certainly recoverable though. I'll remove the 
message to avoid possible log spam.
