If the HDMI cable is disconnected or the CEC adapter is manually unconfigured, then all pending transmits and wait-for-replies are aborted. Signal this with new status bits (CEC_RX/TX_STATUS_ABORTED). If due to (usually) a driver bug a transmit never ends (i.e. the transmit_done was never called by the driver), then when this times out the message is marked with CEC_TX_STATUS_TIMEOUT. This should not happen and is an indication of a driver bug. Without a separate status bit for this it was impossible to detect this from userspace. The 'transmit timed out' kernel message is now a warning, so this should be more prominent in the kernel log as well.

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 Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
