This adds a new driver for the Samsung DB7430 DPI display controller as controlled over SPI.
Right now the only panel product we know that is using this display controller is the LMS397KF04 but there may be more.
Cc: Doug Anderson dianders@chromium.org Signed-off-by: Linus Walleij linus.walleij@linaro.org --- ChangeLog v1->v2: - Rename driver and variables with the db7430_* prefix instead of lms397kf04 as there may be more display products out there using this display controller. Also change Kconfig symbol. - Push doc comments together on one line where possible. - Rename DB7430_MANUFACTURER_CMD to DB7430_ACCESS_PROT_OFF - Return error from regulator_bulk_disable() down to db7430_unprepare() and propagate. - Use usleep_range(1000, 5000) instead of msleep(1) - Shorten prepare/unprepare callbacks by more compact code. - Use devm_err_probe() and provide proper probe errors all the way through the probe() function. --- MAINTAINERS | 7 + drivers/gpu/drm/panel/Kconfig | 9 + drivers/gpu/drm/panel/Makefile | 1 + drivers/gpu/drm/panel/panel-samsung-db7430.c | 395 +++++++++++++++++++ 4 files changed, 412 insertions(+) create mode 100644 drivers/gpu/drm/panel/panel-samsung-db7430.c

It still seems like it'd be nice to error check, even if you just print a message in the helper function and then go on with the rest of the function (to simplify control flow).

Now that you've updated the #define to include the words "ACCESS_PROT_OFF" you probably don't need the comment.

In my review of v1, I asked:
panel-simple also sets the bpc in the "display_info". Do you need to?
I didn't see a reply, so I'm still curious about the answer.

Struggling with this. The DBI bus is only used by tiny DRM for the panel drivers that are jitted with that display controller ATM. No normal panel driver is using it.
panel-simple also sets the bpc in the "display_info". Do you need to?
I didn't see a reply, so I'm still curious about the answer.
I think it depends on whether the display controller/bridge actually make use of this or not. It is implied from the MEDIA_BUS_FMT* in practice and this controller (MCDE) only had settings for BPP, no fine grained bits to fiddle for BPC.
But I added it for completeness, why not! Who knows who else will come along. I think I should patch a few other drivers with this as well.

Struggling with this. The DBI bus is only used by tiny DRM for the panel drivers that are jitted with that display controller ATM. No normal panel driver is using it.
Quite similar to my ili9341 driver submission last year [1]. I guess, if it just simply combines tinyDRM and dpi driver into one source code like what i was doing. it's might not easy to get accepted from maintainers.
Anyway, there was a discussion on support dbi & dsi by one driver [2], hope it'll give some help for you on this work.

panel-simple also sets the bpc in the "display_info". Do you need to?
I didn't see a reply, so I'm still curious about the answer.
I think it depends on whether the display controller/bridge actually make use of this or not. It is implied from the MEDIA_BUS_FMT* in practice and this controller (MCDE) only had settings for BPP, no fine grained bits to fiddle for BPC.
But I added it for completeness, why not! Who knows who else will come along. I think I should patch a few other drivers with this as well.

:( So how about this, then?
* If someone more senior than me in DRM says it's fine to just do this directly for now then I have no objections. It'd be nice to mention that this is actually DBI "type c1" somewhere in the comments, but other than that the direct SPI stuff is OK.
* If there are 3+ other panels drivers that you can point to that directly use SPI functions for DBI like you are doing then I'm OK w/ it too even if nobody more senior signs on w/ it. Presumably if there are at least 3 already then someone else has already signed on to the fact that this is fine to do. It'd still be nice to do a cleanup but presumably that could all be done at the same time.
* If you're the first or second or third panel driver that's doing this directly with SPI commands then it probably makes sense to pause and figure out how to use DBI right now before more drivers come around and copy the code.
Hopefully that sounds OK.
