Hi Thierry, I don't mean to stir up anything, just voicing "my 2c" as they say.

Your blog article does not have any links and I only found the "Runtime Interpreted Power Sequences" thread. That in itself does not cover the pros/cons of storing HW information* within DT. Personally, the idea of having hardware information* in DT does not sound all that bad. The simple panel driver(s) can use those properties and any panels that require anything more complex will still need their own driver. For better or for worse, there's already a handful of drivers and bindings that rely on/provide these. Using that information consistently across the board, would be of a benefit, IMHO. But at the end of the day, might as well go with whatever RobH and the DT folk are happy with. It's on them to maintain the DT ABI ;-) Regards, Emil * Display dimensions, display timings and even delays for the power sequence. Not too sure on that last one though. _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
