[PATCH 1/3] drm/panel: make LVDS panel driver DPI capable

[Oleksandr Suvorov]

From: Stefan Agner <stefan@agner.ch>

The LVDS panel driver has almost everything which is required to
describe a simple parallel RGB panel (also known as DPI, Display
Pixel Interface).

Hi Oleksandr & Stafan.

Thanks for the update to panel-lvds.

There are a few high-level things we need to have sorted out.

The driver, when this patch is added, assumes that certain properties
are now mandatory when using the panel-dpi compatible.
  - data-mapping
  - width-mm
  - height-mm
  - panel-timing

But this does not match the panel-dpi binding.
So we need the panel-dpi binding updated first.


The current driver specify the connector type in drm_panel_init().
But a DPI panel is assumed to use a DRM_MODE_CONNECTOR_DPI,
and not a DRM_MODE_CONNECTOR_LVDS.
So the drm_panel_init() call needs to take into account the type
of binding.

I think changing the name of the driver like this is an UAPI change,
which is not OK

I see 2 simple ways there:
- keep the original platform driver name;
- fork panel-lvds driver as panel-generic driver with dpi support.

What solution do you prefer?

I just sent a patch-set converting this binding to DT schema.
Let's land this and you can make your changes on top of it.
Care to review it?

Please keep the original platform driver name.
It is a bit confusing but this is the best option I see.

From: Stefan Agner <stefan@agner.ch>

Make sure that the bus_flags parsed from the display timings are
passed to the connector display info.
