[PATCH v5 06/13] dt-bindings: display: add a boot logo node under /chosen

["Màxim Pedraza Padilla" <maximpedraza@gmail.com>]

Products built on the same board often differ only in branding. On UEFI
systems the firmware hands the operating system its boot logo through
the ACPI BGRT; a device tree system has no such table, so today the logo
is built into the kernel, and each product needs its own kernel image.
With U-Boot's Falcon mode the device tree is the only thing that reaches
the kernel, so it is also the only place the logo can come from.

Add a "boot-logo" node under /chosen. The node lives there because a
logo is configuration handed over by firmware rather than a description
of the hardware, as simple-framebuffer nodes already are.

The image is a BMP with 24 bits per pixel and no compression, the
format of the BGRT image, so that one file serves the firmware splash,
a BMP loaded as firmware and this node alike. It is carried either in
an "image" property, which dtc fills in from the file with /incbin/, or
in a reserved memory region the bootloader loaded it into, named by
"memory-region". Exactly one of the two must be present.

"logo-position" takes -1 on an axis to mean centre on that axis, which
is the only way to say it when the device tree does not know the image
size, and "logo-offset" is added afterwards. "rotation" counts degrees
counter clockwise, as for panels, and turns the image rather than the
screen, so position and offset stay in screen pixels. The optional
"background-color" goes with the image, since a logo designed for one
background looks wrong on another.

+description: |
+  An image for the operating system to show on the display while it boots,
+  handed over by the firmware together with where and how to show it.
+
+  Products built on the same board often differ only in branding. Carrying
+  the logo in the device tree lets a single kernel image serve all of them,
+  each booting with its own device tree, and it works where the device tree
+  is the only thing that reaches the kernel, as with U-Boot's Falcon mode.
+  It plays the part the ACPI BGRT plays on UEFI systems.
+
+  Since a logo is configuration rather than a description of the hardware,
+  the node lives under /chosen, next to the other things firmware hands to
+  the operating system.
+
+  The image is a BMP file with a 40 byte BITMAPINFOHEADER, 24 bits per pixel
+  and no compression, the format of the BGRT image. It is carried either in
+  the node itself or in a reserved memory region the bootloader loaded it
+  into, never both.
+
+properties:
+  $nodename:
+    const: logo

+  compatible:
+    const: boot-logo
+
+  image:
+    $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/uint8-array
+    description:
+      The BMP file itself, byte for byte, which dtc can fill in from the file
+      with /incbin/. The device tree stays in memory for as long as the
+      system runs, so this is meant for small images; larger ones belong in
+      a reserved memory region.
+
+  memory-region:
+    maxItems: 1
+    description: |
+      Reserved memory region the bootloader loaded the BMP file into, starting
+      at the beginning of the region. The BMP header says how much of the
+      region is image.
+
+      This keeps the image out of the device tree, so that it can be changed
+      without rebuilding the device tree, for instance by loading it from a
+      partition of its own that userspace can update.
+
+      Memory keeps its contents across a reset, and may even across a short
+      power cycle, and the operating system cannot tell a stale image from a
+      fresh one. A bootloader that loads no image into the region therefore
+      disables the node (status = "disabled") or removes it.
+
+  logo-position:
+    $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/int32-array
+    description:
+      X and Y coordinates, in screen pixels, of the top left corner of the
+      image once it has been rotated. A value of -1 on an axis centres the
+      image on that axis instead, which is the only way to say it when the
+      device tree does not know the image size, as with a memory region.
+      Defaults to centring on both axes.
+    items:
+      - description: X coordinate, or -1 to centre horizontally
+        minimum: -1
+        maximum: 65535
+      - description: Y coordinate, or -1 to centre vertically
+        minimum: -1
+        maximum: 65535
+
+  logo-offset:
+    $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/int32-array
+    description:
+      X and Y displacement, in screen pixels, applied after the image has been
+      placed. Mostly useful together with a centred axis, to land the image
+      somewhere other than the middle of a panel whose visible area is not
+      the middle of the mode.
+    items:
+      - description: X displacement
+        minimum: -65535
+        maximum: 65535

+    description:
+      Rotation applied to the image before it is shown, in degrees counter
+      clockwise, as for the rotation property of panels. It turns the image
+      and not the screen, so a quarter turn swaps how much room the image
+      takes up, but logo-position and logo-offset stay in screen pixels
+      either way.
+    enum: [0, 90, 180, 270]
