Hi,

if userspace asks for Type0, the kernel is free to use Type1 instead
and switch "Content Protection" to "ENABLED". Userspace has no way of
knowing that the link actually runs with Type1.

You can argue that it does not matter, because Type1 protection is
stronger than Type0, so everybody should be happy, but that does not
change the fact that userspace thinks wrong of what the protection
really is.

Really? Sorry, I have completely missed this. Please make it clear in
UAPI and kAPI docs. This invalidates my comment above as well.

But you are also conflicting with your own doc, which said:

+ *	  - "HDCP Type0": DRM_MODE_HDCP_CONTENT_TYPE0 = 0
+ *		HDCP Type0 streams can be transmitted on a link which is
+ *		encrypted with HDCP 1.4 or higher versions of HDCP(i.e HDCP2.2
+ *		and more).

To me that reads as: if userspace asks for Type0, the kernel is free to
use Type0 or Type1 or anything stronger to say it succeeded.

Hence my confusion.

I wouldn't know what that means.

I'm running with the assumption that:
- Type0 == HDCP 1.4
- Type1 == HDCP 2.2
and I have no idea why you are sometimes talking about Type and
sometimes about HDCP version.

Is there any reason to actually talk about HDCP versions at all in the
UAPI doc? I'm starting to suspect that my assumptions are not right,
and the use of dual-terminology in the UAPI doc confuses me.

Awesome, let's see.
