The display IPs in MediaTek SoCs support being interconnected with

with different DDP IPs (for example, rdma can be connected with either
color, dpi, dsi, merge, etc), forming a full Display Data Path that
ends with an actual display.

The final display pipeline is effectively board specific, as it does
depend on the display that is attached to it, and eventually on the
sensors supported by the board (for example, Adaptive Ambient Light
would need an Ambient Light Sensor, otherwise it's pointless!), other
than the output type.

With the color and gamma being in play, should the configuration be
board-driver or rather use-case driven with the driver being able to
reroute some of the blocks at runtime?


The driver can already set some blocks to "BYPASS MODE" at runtime, meaning
that those will work as simple pass-through, performing *no* processing at
all, so that's addressed from the very beginning.

This doesn't mean that a specific pipeline must always support the "DISP_GAMMA"
or the "DISP_CCOLOR" block(s) alone, or together, or in combination with another
specific block.

For any other question, clarification, etc, I'm here :-)

Cheers!


Add support for OF graphs to most of the MediaTek DDP (display) bindings
to add flexibility to build custom hardware paths, hence enabling board
specific configuration of the display pipeline and allowing to finally
migrate away from using hardcoded paths.
