You can use of-graph ports to link the dsi output with the adv7533 bridge. An example of the binding looks like: Documentation/devicetree/bindings/drm/msm/dsi.txt The implementation of this on the dsi host side of drm/msm can be found in dsi_host_parse_dt, in: drivers/gpu/drm/msm/dsi/dsi_host.c You can get to know more about of-graph parsing here: Documentation/devicetree/bindings/graph.txt I'd started going through the drm/hisil patches. I'll share more comments there. Thanks, Archit > > Thank you > xinwei > >> Also, the ADV7533 connection is specific to HiKey.
