Series drm/msm/dp: Rework the eDP/DP modes and add support for X1E80100 | expand

Commit Message

Abel Vesa Feb. 22, 2024, 3:55 p.m. UTC
Add the X1E80100 to the list of compatibles and document the is-edp
flag. The controllers are expected to operate in DP mode by default,
and this flag can be used to select eDP mode.

Rob, Krzysztof, Connor, gracious ping for the review. It would be
really nice to merge this patchset during the next cycle. It also
unbreaks several other patches.

That's not a netdev... or do you have the same subsystem profile
expecting reviews *from everyone* within two days?

Best regards,

DP controller cannot be edp, so property "is-edp" is confusing. Probably
you want to choose some phy mode, so you should rather use "phy-mode"
property. I am sure we've been here...

Anyway, if you define completely new property without vendor prefix,
that's a generic property, so you need to put it in some common schema
for all Display Controllers, not only Qualcomm.


Best regards,
Krzysztof

The only thing that speeds up my review is reviewing whatever is ahead 
of this patch in the queue[1].

phy-mode in controller node or in the phy node?

I can re-spin with qcom,is-edp if that's better.

Is there a generic schema for DisplayPort controllers? I think there
is none at this point. We can probably add it, declaring is-edp
property, link-frequencies, etc.
However Mediatek already uses a different option to specify supported
link frequencies.

Once this patchset is accepted (in this or that or whatever else
form), we will cleanup most of those hardcoded types.

It's not that easy. First, probing of the bridge chain differs
slightly depending on whether the controller is eDP or DP controller.
eDP should use AUX BUS, while DP (currently) doesn't use it. More
importantly, error conditions differ too. For example, in the DP case
it is perfectly fine to have nothing attached to the controller. It
just means that the display chain needs no additional handling and the
HPD pin will be handled by the controller itself. In the eDP case if
neither a panel nor a bridge are attached, it is considered to be an
error and thus the driver will return probe error.
