[ 19.851843] drm drm: failed to set initial configuration: -28 So basically what's happening here is that the bootloader is passing a video= parameter on the command-line and after this patch, the DRM core will consider the tegrafb in that parameter to be a named video mode. The mode is then filtered out because it doesn't make any sense, but then drm_client_modeset_probe() still tries to use it, eventually leading to failure because we can't allocate memory for a 0x0 framebuffer. Now, there are obviously a couple of places where things go wrong. On one hand I think if the mode specified on the command-line is already filtered out, then drm_client_modeset_probe() should not be trying to use it. One could also argue that the bootloader shouldn't be passing that video=tegrafb parameter in the first place. Then again, this is nothing out of the ordinary (as documented in Documentation/fb/modedb.rst). The problem with named modes, and you already highlighted this in your comment in the code, is that it's not possible to distinguish between a mode name and a video= option that defines the framebuffer device to use. That said, I wouldn't be surprised if this change ended up breaking on other devices. I'm also not sure that under these circumstances it's a good idea to support named modes. At least not until we have a better way of determining what's a real mode name and what isn't. Looking at the old modedb from fb, not even the standard modes listed there have names associated with them, so I'm not sure how this was ever supposed to work. From the looks of it, some of the fbdev drivers seem to take a mode list from board-code (see for example the mx21ads_modes array from arch/arm/mach-imx/mach-mx21ads.c). The imxfb driver can then take a mode name from the command line and try to match it against a list of known modes. That seems to match what the documentation says. However, that also really only works because this is all directly dealt with in the fbdev drivers. For DRM/KMS we don't do that and instead we rely on the core to provide this backwards-compatibility. However, at the time when we parse the mode from the command line we don't have the list of modes that are considered to be valid, so your patch currently needs to assume that it is a valid mode. I don't think that's a good idea, because clearly not all strings that currently make it through the filter are actually modes. So if we really need this, I think we want some way for the connector to provide the list of named modes that it supports so that by the time we want to parse the command-line we can check whether it's actually a name to avoid false positives like the ones I'm seeing on Tegra. For now it might just be easiest to avoid any of this and disable the named mode support until it's a bit more mature. The patch no longer reverts cleanly, but it should be fairly easy to disable the feature in a follow-up patch again.

If we were to do that, I'd really like to have least get a unit test for that case, and some documentation on how we're supposed to deal with this case.
