I've posted a 'quick & working' fix for Exynos DRM DSI driver: https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/12/27/121 Best regards -- Marek Szyprowski, PhD Samsung R&D Institute Poland _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
