The ti948 device is situated inside the housing of the LCD panel. The ti949 is a normal i2c device on the system i2c bus. In order for the ti948 to appear on the system's i2c bus, the ti949 must be powered up and configured. The panel is connected to the system via the FPD-Link III. If a connector for the wire to the display is unplugged and re-inserted, then the ti948 will drop out and come back. Application note AN-2173, "I2C Communication Over FPD-LinkIII with Bidirectional Control Channel" describes this: http://www.ti.com/lit/an/snla131a/snla131a.pdf Perhaps I need to expand the commit message to explain this? Alternatively is there a more standard way of dealing with remotely connected i2c devices? >> Signed-off-by: Michael Drake <michael.drake@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> >> Cc: Patrick Glaser <pglaser@xxxxxxxxx> >> Cc: Nate Case <ncase@xxxxxxxxx> >> --- >> drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/ti948.c | 19 ++++++++++++++++++- >> 1 file changed, 18 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) >> >> diff --git a/drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/ti948.c b/drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/ti948.c >> index 86daa3701b91..b5c766711c4b 100644 >> --- a/drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/ti948.c >> +++ b/drivers/gpu/drm/bridge/ti948.c >> @@ -132,6 +132,8 @@ struct ti948_reg_val { >> * @reg_names: Array of regulator names, or NULL. >> * @regs: Array of regulators, or NULL. >> * @reg_count: Number of entries in reg_names and regs arrays. >> + * @alive_check: Context for the alive checking work item. >> + * @alive: Whether the device is alive or not (alive_check). >> */ >> struct ti948_ctx { >> struct i2c_client *i2c; >> @@ -141,6 +143,8 @@ struct ti948_ctx { >> const char **reg_names; >> struct regulator **regs; >> size_t reg_count; >> + struct delayed_work alive_check; >> + bool alive; >> }; >> >> static bool ti948_readable_reg(struct device *dev, unsigned int reg) >> @@ -346,6 +350,8 @@ static int ti948_power_on(struct ti948_ctx *ti948) >> if (ret != 0) >> return ret; >> >> + ti948->alive = true; >> + >> msleep(500); >> >> return 0; >> @@ -356,6 +362,8 @@ static int ti948_power_off(struct ti948_ctx *ti948) >> int i; >> int ret; >> >> + ti948->alive = false; >> + >> for (i = ti948->reg_count; i > 0; i--) { >> dev_info(&ti948->i2c->dev, "Disabling %s regulator\n", >> ti948->reg_names[i - 1]); >> @@ -388,8 +396,17 @@ static void ti948_alive_check(struct work_struct *work) >> { >> struct delayed_work *dwork = to_delayed_work(work); >> struct ti948_ctx *ti948 = delayed_work_to_ti948_ctx(dwork); >> + int ret = ti948_device_check(ti948); >> >> - dev_info(&ti948->i2c->dev, "%s Alive check!\n", __func__); >> + if (ti948->alive == false && ret == 0) { >> + dev_info(&ti948->i2c->dev, "Device has come back to life!\n"); >> + ti948_write_config_seq(ti948); >> + ti948->alive = true; >> + >> + } else if (ti948->alive == true && ret != 0) { >> + dev_info(&ti948->i2c->dev, "Device has stopped responding\n"); >> + ti948->alive = false; >> + } >> >> /* Reschedule ourself for the next check. */ >> schedule_delayed_work(&ti948->alive_check, TI948_ALIVE_CHECK_DELAY); > -- Michael Drake https://www.codethink.co.uk/ _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
