Hello,
This series adds initial support for the DRM bridges to NVIDIA Tegra DRM driver. This is required by newer device-trees where we model the LVDS encoder bridge properly.
Changelog:
v9: - Dropped the of-graph/drm-of patches from this series because they are now factored out into a standalone series [1].
[1] https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/linux-tegra/list/?series=186813
- The "drm/panel-simple: Add missing connector type for some panels" patch of v8 was already applied.
v8: - The new of_graph_get_local_port() helper is replaced with the of_graph_presents(), which simply checks the graph presence in a given DT node. Thank to Laurent Pinchart for the suggestion!
- The of_graph_get_local_port() is still there, but now it isn't a public function anymore. In the review to v7 Laurent Pinchart suggested that the function's doc-comments and name could be improved and I implemented these suggestions in v8.
- A day ago I discovered that devm_drm_panel_bridge_add() requires panel to have connector type to be properly set, otherwise function rejects panels with the incomplete description. So, I checked what LVDS panels are used on Tegra and fixed the missing connector types in this new patch:
drm/panel-simple: Add missing connector type for some panels
v7: - Removed the obscure unused structs (which GCC doesn't detect, but CLANG does) in the patch "Wrap directly-connected panel into DRM bridge", which was reported by kernel test robot for v6.
v6: - Added r-b and acks from Rob Herring and Sam Ravnborg.
- Rebased on a recent linux-next, patches now apply without fuzz.
v5: - Added new patches that make drm_of_find_panel_or_bridge() more usable if graph isn't defined in a device-tree:
of_graph: add of_graph_get_local_port() drm/of: Make drm_of_find_panel_or_bridge() to check graph's presence
- Updated "Support DRM bridges" patch to use drm_of_find_panel_or_bridge() directly and added WARN_ON(output->panel || output->bridge) sanity-check.
- Added new "Wrap directly-connected panel into DRM bridge" patch, as was suggested by Laurent Pinchart.
v4: - Following review comments that were made by Laurent Pinchart to the v3, we now create and use the "bridge connector".
v3: - Following recommendation from Sam Ravnborg, the new bridge attachment model is now being used, i.e. we ask bridge to *not* create a connector using the DRM_BRIDGE_ATTACH_NO_CONNECTOR flag.
- The bridge is now created only for the RGB (LVDS) output, and only when necessary. For now we don't need bridges for HDMI or DSI outputs.
- I noticed that we're leaking OF node in the panel's error code path, this is fixed now by the new patch "Don't leak OF node on error".
v2: - Added the new "rgb: Don't register connector if bridge is used" patch, which hides the unused connector provided by the Tegra DRM driver when bridge is used, since bridge provides its own connector to us.
