Linux kernel source tree
Link Training Tunable PHY Repeaters (LTTPRs) are defined in DisplayPort 1.4a specification. As the name suggests, these PHY repeaters are capable of adjusting their output for link training purposes. According to the DisplayPort standard, LTTPRs have two operating modes: - non-transparent - it replies to DPCD LTTPR field specific AUX requests, while passes through all other AUX requests - transparent - it passes through all AUX requests. Switching between these two modes is done by the DPTX by issuing an AUX write to the DPCD PHY_REPEATER_MODE register. The msm DP driver is currently lacking any handling of LTTPRs. This means that if at least one LTTPR is found between DPTX and DPRX, the link training would fail if that LTTPR was not already configured in transparent mode. The section 3.6.6.1 from the DisplayPort v2.0 specification mandates that before link training with the LTTPR is started, the DPTX may place the LTTPR in non-transparent mode by first switching to transparent mode and then to non-transparent mode. This operation seems to be needed only on first link training and doesn't need to be done again until device is unplugged. It has been observed on a few X Elite-based platforms which have such LTTPRs in their board design that the DPTX needs to follow the procedure described above in order for the link training to be successful. So add support for reading the LTTPR DPCD caps to figure out the number of such LTTPRs first. Then, for platforms (or Type-C dongles) that have at least one such an LTTPR, set its operation mode to transparent mode first and then to non-transparent, just like the mentioned section of the specification mandates.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
