I do acknowledge you need to preserve history and all - but this patchset is not easy to review. Could you follow-up with a review-able set of patches as a follow-up for this? I spotted some wrong bridge handling in one patch but I do not know if this got changed in a later patch. And I lost the motivation to go looking for it. > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: rename the Kirin9xx namespace > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: get rid of kirin9xx_fbdev.c > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: get rid of some ifdefs > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: rename the config option for Kirin970 > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: change the includes to reflect upstream > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: port driver to upstream kAPIs > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: add a copy of set_reg() function there > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: get rid of ION headers > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: add support for using a reserved CMA memory > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: cleanup encoder attach logic > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: Change the logic which sets the burst mode > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: fix the DRM setting logic > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: do some code cleanups > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: use default GEM_CMA fops > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: place vblank enable/disable at the right place > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: remove an uneeded hack > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: add a possible implementation for > atomic_disable > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: register connector > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: fix driver name > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: get rid of iommu_format > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: re-work the mode validation code > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: add support for enable/disable ldo3 regulator > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: add SPMI headers > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: solve most coding style issues > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: don't use iommu code > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: add kirin9xx driver to the building system > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: get rid of typedefs > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: get rid of input/output macros > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: get rid of some unused data > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: place common definitions at kirin9xx_dpe.h > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: get rid of DRM_HISI_KIRIN970 > dts: hisilicon: hi3670.dtsi: add I2C settings > dts: hikey970-pinctrl.dtsi: add missing pinctrl settings > dt: hisilicon: add support for the PMIC found on Hikey 970 > dts: add support for Hikey 970 DRM > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: drop kirin9xx_pwm > dt: display: Add binds for the DPE and DSI controller for Kirin > 960/970 > > Xiubin Zhang (7): > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: add support to hikey970 HDMI and panel > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: Solve SR Cannot Display Problems. > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: Solve HDMI compatibility Problem. > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: Support MIPI DSI 3 lanes for hikey970. > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: Solve SR test reset problem for hikey970. > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: add debug prints for this driver > staging: hikey9xx/gpu: Add support 10.1 inch special HDMI displays. > > .../display/hisilicon,hi3660-dpe.yaml | 99 + > .../display/hisilicon,hi3660-dsi.yaml | 102 + > .../boot/dts/hisilicon/hi3670-hikey970.dts | 56 +- > arch/arm64/boot/dts/hisilicon/hi3670.dtsi | 77 + > .../boot/dts/hisilicon/hikey970-drm.dtsi | 93 + > .../boot/dts/hisilicon/hikey970-pinctrl.dtsi | 548 +++- > .../boot/dts/hisilicon/hikey970-pmic.dtsi | 197 ++ > drivers/staging/hikey9xx/Kconfig | 3 + > drivers/staging/hikey9xx/Makefile | 1 + > drivers/staging/hikey9xx/gpu/Kconfig | 22 + > drivers/staging/hikey9xx/gpu/Makefile | 9 + > drivers/staging/hikey9xx/gpu/kirin960_defs.c | 378 +++ > .../staging/hikey9xx/gpu/kirin960_dpe_reg.h | 233 ++ > drivers/staging/hikey9xx/gpu/kirin970_defs.c | 381 +++ > .../staging/hikey9xx/gpu/kirin970_dpe_reg.h | 1188 ++++++++ > drivers/staging/hikey9xx/gpu/kirin9xx_dpe.h | 2437 +++++++++++++++++ > .../hikey9xx/gpu/kirin9xx_drm_dpe_utils.c | 1178 ++++++++ > .../hikey9xx/gpu/kirin9xx_drm_dpe_utils.h | 286 ++ > .../staging/hikey9xx/gpu/kirin9xx_drm_drv.c | 368 +++ > .../staging/hikey9xx/gpu/kirin9xx_drm_drv.h | 57 + > .../staging/hikey9xx/gpu/kirin9xx_drm_dss.c | 1063 +++++++ > .../hikey9xx/gpu/kirin9xx_drm_overlay_utils.c | 1005 +++++++ > .../hikey9xx/gpu/kirin9xx_dw_drm_dsi.c | 2132 ++++++++++++++ > .../hikey9xx/gpu/kirin9xx_dw_dsi_reg.h | 146 + > .../staging/hikey9xx/gpu/kirin9xx_fb_panel.h | 191 ++ > 25 files changed, 12229 insertions(+), 21 deletions(-) > create mode 100644 Documentation/devicetree/bindings/display/hisilicon,hi3660-dpe.yaml > create mode 100644 Documentation/devicetree/bindings/display/hisilicon,hi3660-dsi.yaml Patch that intropduce new bindings must following the submitting patches guidelines for bindings.
