Hello!
This is the series of patches that will add support for the Cadence's DPI/DP bridge. Please note that this is a preliminary version of the driver and there will be more patches in the future with updates, fixes and improvements. Please keep that in mind when looking at FIXME/TODO/XXX comments.
Initially, MHDP driver was developed as a DRM bridge driver and was planed to be placed in drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/mhdp.c. However, there was already a driver for Cadence's DP controller developed by RockChip, but that driver uses the different DRM framework and looks like a part of a bigger system. Both controllers (including firmware) are quite different internally (MST/FEC/DSC support, link training done by driver, additional commands, IRQ's etc.) but they have similar register map, except for Framer/Streamer (which is noticeably different), so they appear similar.
The following patches contain: - Moving common code to drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/cdns-mhdp-common.* and modifying it a bit (mostly new prefixes for functions and data types) so it can be used by two, higher level, drivers. - Modifying existing RockChip's DP driver to use the common code after changes made to it (use the new cdns_mhdp_device structure and new function names). - Modifying DRM helpers a bit. Some are required for new driver, some are updates from DP 1.2 to 1.3 or 1.4. - Adding documentation for device tree bindings. - Adding preliminary Cadence DPI/DP bridge driver.
Some of the things that will be added later on include (but are not limited to): - Support for Cadence SD0801 PHY (PHY's driver should be on the way by now) - SST audio support - MST support - DSC support - FEC support - HDCP support
Changes in v2: - Added actual description of what the patch contains, what is it for and what's going on here in general. - New structure. Now we have one common low level driver + two high level drivers - one for RockChip with minimum changes and one, more general, for Cadence. - Dropped some changes made to DRM helpers. - Updated the device tree bindings document.
