RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Additional info:
Comment 1 Yuki Okada 2019-12-26 02:38:28 UTC 
apply_crtc_assignments() function seems introduced in this commit.

https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/commit/644ee666f6750081b140e46b43367a7be2efe3a9
Comment 6 Jonas Ådahl 2020-12-08 17:58:00 UTC 
This is likely the same as https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1899260 (F33) which is really caused by https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1896904 which is a kernel (nouveau) issue, where it misinterprets a connector as a Embeded DisplayPort (eDP-#), which mutter then interprets as a laptop monitor.

I will backport the same fix as https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1899260 here to mitigate the situation in mutter.
