Re: [PATCH v2 4/7] drm/bridge: Add RGB to VGA bridge support

Hi,

On 07/20/2016 03:28 PM, Maxime Ripard wrote:
Some boards have an entirely passive RGB to VGA bridge, based on either
DACs or resistor ladders.

Those might or might not have an i2c bus routed to the VGA connector in
order to access the screen EDIDs.

Add a bridge that doesn't do anything but expose the modes available on the
screen, either based on the EDIDs if available, or based on the XGA
standards.

Our eventual aim is to separate out the connectors from the bridge
drivers wherever possible. In the future, a KMS driver using the
bridge would be responsible for establishing the links between
the bridge and encoder, and the encoder and connector.

If in the future we remove the connector pieces from this driver
to create a separate generic VGA connector driver, we'll end up
with a bridge driver whose main functionality is to convert RGB
signals to VGA. The EDID parts would move to the VGA connector
driver. In your platform's case, there is no software needed
to translate RGB to VGA, but maybe in the future, we might need
to add an optional regulator in the driver to support another
platform. Therefore, the bridge driver would still be handy to
have.

Keeping this in consideration, I think this driver (and the DT
binding) should be called "dumb-rgb-to-vga-bridge", or
"rgb-to-vga-bridge" since that's what the bridge HW primarily
does.

Thanks,
Archit

+Passive RGB to VGA bridge
+-------------------------
+
+This binding is aimed for entirely passive RGB to VGA bridges that do not
+require any configuration.
+
+Required properties:
+
+- compatible: Must be "dumb-vga-bridge"
+
+Required nodes:
+
+This device has two video ports. Their connections are modeled using the OF
+graph bindings specified in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/graph.txt.
+
+- Video port 0 for RGB input
+- Video port 1 for VGA output
+
+
+Example
+-------
+
+bridge {
+	compatible = "dumb-vga-bridge";
+	#address-cells = <1>;
+	#size-cells = <0>;
+
+	ports {
+		#address-cells = <1>;
+		#size-cells = <0>;
+
+		port@0 {
+			#address-cells = <1>;
+			#size-cells = <0>;
+			reg = <0>;
+
+			vga_bridge_in: endpoint@0 {
+				reg = <0>;
+				remote-endpoint = <&tcon0_out_vga>;
+			};
+		};
+
+		port@1 {
+			#address-cells = <1>;
+			#size-cells = <0>;
+			reg = <1>;
+
+			vga_bridge_out: endpoint@0 {
+				reg = <0>;
+				remote-endpoint = <&vga_con_in>;
+			};
+		};
+	};
+};
