[Regression]Multiple monitors via DP TB dock detection/resolution/layout failure after Skylake->Coffeelake upgrade

Submitted by Arcadiy Ivanov @arcivanov

Assigned to Intel GFX Bugs mailing list

Link to original bug (#111179)

Description

  1. Dell Precision 7510 (Skylake) laptop running Fedora KDE 30 is used with a TB dock (StarTech TB3DKM2DP) and two 4k Samsung monitors via DisplayPort without a problem. One 4K monitor runs vertically, one horizontally, plus a laptop panel, unified into one virtual.

2. An SSD is removed from the Skylake and placed into a brand new Dell Precision 5540 (Coffeelake), connecting into exactly the same TB dock with exactly the same monitor setup via the same cables.

3. Attempting the same layout results in a variety of failures in X11 with a failure to activate one of the 4K monitors, errors in X11 logs, layout failure etc. End result is one of the two monitors never functions.

4. Changing the type of a TB dock (Dell WD19TB) produces same results on 5540.

Key point: setup worked on Skylake, stopped on Coffeelake with no software or peripheral changes.
