[PATCH 00/36] drm: xlnx: zynqmp_dpsub: Initial live video input support

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

The DPSUB is the DisplayPort subsystem, a set of hard IP cores found in
the ZynqMP family of SoCs. It combines a DisplayPort encoder, a video
blender with two input channels, and a DMA engine. The zynqmp_dpsub
driver exposes this as a DRM device with one CRTC and two planes.

In addition to those features, the DPSUB can interface with the
programmable logic (PL) found in the ZynqMP SoC. Each input to the video
blender can come from the PL instead of the DMA engine, and the blender
output can also be routed to the PL. This creates a very configurable
device that can accommodate lots of use cases, but it also makes it
difficult to model it as a DRM/KMS device.

This patch series implements initial support for live video inputs, by
restricting the supported use cases to a single live video input. In
that mode, the video blender is configured in pass-through mode, with
the whole DPSUB essentially operating as a DisplayPort encoder only. The
CRTC and plane functions are then implemented by IP cores in the PL.

To support this, the series start with patch 01/36 to model the
connections to the PL in DT using OF graph bindings. This fixes a
historical mistake that forgot to model the connection to the DP
connector in DT.

With that in place, patches 02/36 to 10/36 refactor the driver to turn
the DisplayPort encoder implementation, modelled as a DRM encoder, into
a DRM bridge. Please see individual patches for details. The rework is
internal only, simplifies the code by making use of the DRM bridge
connector helper, but doesn't bring any functional change.

Patches 11/36 to 30/36 continue refactoring of the driver, to cleanly
separate the DRM planes, CRTC, encoder and connector from the DRM bridge
implementation. The goal is to make the latter available to a DRM driver
for the PL display pipeline without registering any DRM device in the
DPSUB driver itself. Patches 31/36 to 34/36 implement this, reading
information about the connection to the PL from the device tree to
decide in which mode to operate.

Finally, patch 35/36 and 36/36 update the ZynqMP core and ZCU106A board
device tree files to create ports and connect the DPSUB to the
DisplayPort connector. I have tested the whole series without these two
patches to ensure that backward compatibility with older DT isn't
broken.

With this series applied, the DPSUB can be used as a DisplayPort encoder
by a PL display pipeline. A careful reviewer may ask me where drivers
for such a display pipelines are, and that would be a very good
question.

PL display pipelines are currently supported in the Xilinx downstream
kernel only, which is something I want to address next. That road will
be full of challenges, as in theory anything can be implemented in the
PL, including pipelines that connect cameras and displays together. If
anynoe is interested in discussing this topic, please let me know.
