[PATCH v13 0/2] Add Lontium LT7911EXC eDP to MIPI DSI bridge

[PATCH v13 0/2] Add Lontium LT7911EXC eDP to MIPI DSI bridge

[syyang]

From: Sunyun Yang <syyang@lontium.com>

The LT7911EXC is an I2C-controlled bridge that receives eDP1.4
and output mipi dsi. This series introduces:

- A device tree binding YAML file describing the hardware
- A new DRM bridge driver implementing the basic functionality

Change in v13:
- dt-binding:
- drm/bridge:
 1. [High] Dangling pointer created during MIPI DSI host detach if the downstream                           [sashiko-bot]
           device is a bridge rather than a panel. - fixed
 2. [High] Firmware upgrade CRC mismatch due to unpadded partial page writes. 
           - hardware erases the entire flash area into a default state of 0xff. When doing
             a partial page short write，the total unwritten residual bytes on the physical
             flash sector inherently retain their 0xff state. Therefore, no modification is required.
 3. [High] Firmware upgrade workqueue accesses `bridge.dev` without ensuring the DRM device is alive,
           leading to a Use-After-Free. - fixed
 4. [High] Regmap page selector cache desynchronization after device reset causes firmware upgrade
           commands to be routed to the wrong register page. - fixed
- Link to v12: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20260525010545.9470-1-syyang@lontium.com/

Change in v12:
- dt-binding:
- drm/bridge:
 1. Move the cleanup work of drm_panel_bridge_remove() forward into lt7911exc_dsi_host_detach().                        [sashiko-bot]
 2. Do not hold any lock during lt7911exc_reset().
- Link to v11: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20260522015735.2833-1-syyang@lontium.com/

Change in v11:
- dt-binding:
- drm/bridge:
 1. Removed Reviewed-by, we would appreciate it if the maintainer could help review this.
 2. Use devm_gpiod_get(,, GPIOD_OUT_HIGH) to fix the reset GPIO backpowering issue.                                       [sashiko-bot]
 3. Fixed Use-After-Free vulnerability due to dynamic DRM bridge removal in DSI detach callback.
 4. Fixed Use-After-Free of regmap during DRM teardown because firmware upgrade worker defeats removal safeguard.
 5. Fixed firmware upgrade performs a hardware reset, causing silent loss of DRM state and a blank screen.
 6. Use of kmalloc for a 64KB software buffer is susceptible to memory fragmentation failures - Fix by using kvmalloc
 7. Use the 'lt7911exc->ocm_lock' mutex and the 'lt7911exc->upgrade' flag to resolve the race condition between
    DRM atomic modeset and firmware upgrade.
 8. Use the 'lt7911exc->upgrade_lock' mutex to prevent redundant upgrades.
 9. Use the 'lt7911exc->removed' flag to prevent the driver from being triggered to upgrade during the unload process.
- Link to v10: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20260519135816.26996-1-syyang@lontium.com/

Change in v10:
- dt-binding:
- drm/bridge:
 1. Fixed the firmware upgrade error paths to always clear the upgrade
    flag before returning, including firmware size validation failures
    and allocation failures.                                                                [sashiko-bot]
 2. Added proper locking in lt7911exc_atomic_pre_enable() and
    lt7911exc_atomic_post_disable() to serialize register accesses with the
    firmware upgrade flow and avoid concurrent I2C transactions.
 3. Added an exclusivity check in lt7911exc_dsi_host_attach() to reject multiple
    downstream attachments and prevent repeated drm_bridge_add() calls and panel bridge leaks.
 4. Reworked lt7911exc_firmware_store() to use mutex_trylock() so concurrent sysfs writers
    immediately return -EBUSY instead of blocking behind an active firmware upgrade.
 5. Updated the remove path to prevent new firmware upgrade work from being queued after
    device removal by setting the upgrade state before cancelling the worker.
- Link to v9: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20260519105019.22622-1-syyang@lontium.com/

Change in v9:
- dt-binding:
- drm/bridge:
 1. DSI transfer callback returns success for reads without populating                        [sashiko-bot]
    the receive buffer, leaking uninitialized memory. - fixed it by
    implementing  a strict whitelist mechanism.
 2. DSI transfer callback polls for eDP video readiness before the
    upstream encoder is enabled, guaranteeing a timeout. - removed
 3. The driver attempts I2C transfers while the hardware is held in
    physical reset. - fixed
 4. Missing DRM_MIPI_DSI Kconfig dependency causes linker errors. - fixed
 5. request_firmware is called while holding the hardware lock and
    halting the MCU, risking a system pipeline stall. - fixed
 6. Sleeping functions are called from atomic context in the DRM bridge callbacks. - fixed
 7. lt7911exc_dsi_host_transfer bypasses the required MCU hardware halt sequence. - fixed by
    internal firmware controls the panel initialization sequence and handles all MIPI
    DSI command transmission.
- Link to v8: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20260515080934.9870-1-syyang@lontium.com/

Change in v8:
- dt-binding:
- drm/bridge:
 1. Protect firmware upgrade and DRM bridge callback paths with ocm_lock.          [sashiko-bot]
 2. Remove the hardware reset from the remove callback, and ensure that
    all hardware reset operations are protected by ocm_lock.
 3. crc reconstruction explicitly casts each byte to u32 before shifting
 4. The display configuration is handled by the firmware, and the MIPI
    DSI host registration issue has been fixed.
 5. The batch register read/write operations have already been updated
    to include return value checking.
 6. The dev_err_probe() used outside of probe context has been fixed.
- Link to v7: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20260512064013.40066-1-syyang@lontium.com/

Change in v7:
- dt-binding:
 1. fix commit message typos(Receiver、signal)                            [sashiko-bot]
 2. remove the ambiguity caused by "signal/dual".
- drm/bridge:
 1. using devm_regulator_get_enable avoids power leaks.                   [sashiko-bot]
 2. set reset gpio is low after cutting off power in lt7911exc_remove function, avoid backpowering.
 3. synchronous request_firmware() call cause a permanent probe failure if the driver is built-in,
    probe executes before the root filesystem is mounted, which would cause this to fail with -ENOENT,
    we have removed this functionality. Use trigger to upgrade.
 4. add `depends on I2C` and `select REGMAP_I2C` in Kconfig.
 5. add return value of `devm_drm_bridge_add()` in `probe()`.
 6. add directly header files (linux/slab.h, linux/delay.h, linux/regulator/consumer.h)

[PATCH v13 2/2] drm/bridge: Add Lontium LT7911EXC eDP to MIPI DSI bridge

[syyang]

From: Sunyun Yang <syyang@lontium.com>

Add support for the Lontium LT7911EXC bridge chip, which converts
eDP input to MIPI DSI output using an internal firmware-controlled
pipeline.

The driver provides:
- DRM bridge integration for eDP-to-DSI routing
- MIPI DSI host interface for downstream panel attachment
- Firmware upgrade mechanism over I2C (erase/program/verify)
- GPIO-based reset and regulator management

Display timing and MIPI DCS packet generation are handled by the chip
firmware and are not configured by the driver.

Re: [PATCH v13 2/2] drm/bridge: Add Lontium LT7911EXC eDP to MIPI DSI bridge

[sashiko-bot]

Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 2 potential issue(s) to consider:
- [High] AB-BA / self-deadlock between the bridge's ocm_lock and DRM modeset locks during hotplug notification.
- [High] Freeing the panel bridge in lt7911exc_dsi_host_detach while it is still attached to the DRM bridge chain causes a Use-After-Free.

drm/bridge: Add Lontium LT7911EXC eDP to MIPI DSI bridge

This commit adds support for the Lontium LT7911EXC bridge chip which converts
eDP input to MIPI DSI output. It provides DRM bridge integration, MIPI DSI
host interface, firmware upgrade mechanism, and GPIO/regulator management.

[Severity: High]
Will this result in a self-deadlock when the hotplug event triggers a modeset?

The driver holds ocm_lock here, and drm_kms_helper_hotplug_event() notifies
user-space and triggers the in-kernel fbdev client to restore the display
mode. This leads to a synchronous atomic commit that invokes bridge
callbacks such as lt7911exc_atomic_pre_enable().

Looking at lt7911exc_atomic_pre_enable():

static void lt7911exc_atomic_pre_enable(...)
{
	struct lt7911exc *lt7911exc = bridge_to_lt7911exc(bridge);

	guard(mutex)(&lt7911exc->ocm_lock);
	...
}

Since the mutex is already held by this exact same worker thread, and
mutexes aren't recursive, won't this permanently hang the worker thread?

[Severity: High]
Can this cause a use-after-free during subsequent DRM operations?

In lt7911exc_bridge_attach(), the panel bridge is linked into the DRM
encoder's bridge chain. If the downstream DSI device is unbound at
runtime and calls this detach function, drm_panel_bridge_remove() will
free the panel bridge memory.

However, the bridge is not removed from the encoder's bridge chain
(the chain_node list). Won't subsequent DRM operations like modesets,
display disabling, or device teardown iterate over the encoder's
bridge chain and dereference the freed memory?
