Hi! I naively thought that since there was support for both nxp,tda19988 (in the tda998x driver) and the atmel-hlcdc, things would be a smooth ride. But it wasn't, so I started looking around and realized I had to fix things. In v1 and v2 I fixed things by making the atmel-hlcdc driver a master component, but now I fix things by making the tda998x driver a bridge instead. This was after a suggestion from Boris Brezillon the atmel-hlcdc maintainer), so there was some risk of bias ... but after comparing what was needed, I too find the bridge approach better. In addition to the above, our PCB interface between the SAMA5D3 and the HDMI encoder is only using 16 bits, and this has to be described somewhere, or the atmel-hlcdc driver have no chance of selecting the correct output mode. Since I have similar problems with a ds90c185 lvds encoder I added patches to override the atmel-hlcdc output format via DT properties compatible with the media video-interface binding and things start to play together. Since this series superseeds the bridge series [1], I have included the leftover bindings patch for the ti,ds90c185 here. Anyway, this series solves some real issues for my HW. And as a last bit I remove the master component code from the tilcdc driver. It should no longer be needed, but I have only compile-tested the patch and there could easily be some gotcha. I marked it RFC, and it should get a Tested-by from someone with a tilcdc/tda998x combo before it is applied. Cheers, Peter Changes since v3 https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/4/19/736 - moved the meat of the drm_of_media_bus_fmt function from patch 3/7 to a driver-local atmel_hlcdc_of_bus_fmt function, and squashed with patch 4/7 (this is now patch 3/8). - patch 3/8 now parses and stores the DT bus format together with the encoder in a reintroduced struct atmel_hlcdc_rgb_output instead of allocating a separate encoder-indexed array for the bus formats. - patch 5/8 is new and splits tda988x_encoder_dpms into a pair of functions to enable/disable separately. This fits better with both the current code and for the followup drm_bridge patch (7/8). - adjust patch 6/8 and 7/8 to the above simplification. - added patch 8/8 that removes component master code from tilcdc. Changes since v2 https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/4/17/385 - patch 2/7 fixed spelling and added an example - patch 4/7 parse the DT up front and store the result indexed by encoder - old patch 5/6 and 6/6 dropped - patch 5-7/7 are new and makes the tda998x driver a drm_bridge Changes since v1 https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/4/9/294 - added reviewed-by from Rob to patch 1/6 - patch 2/6 changed so that the bus format override is in the endpoint DT node, and follows the binding of media video-interfaces. - patch 3/6 is new, it adds drm_of_media_bus_fmt which parses above media video-interface binding (partially). - patch 4/6 now makes use of the above helper (and also fixes problems with the 3/5 patch from v1 when no override was specified). - do not mention unrelated connector display_info details in the cover letter and commit messages.
