Oh OK. > We are still missing DSI command mode support, and moving it to the common DRM model. Nope, DSI command mode support has been working just fine for a while now :) And Sebastian has a WIP git tree of the common DRM model changes for it. I don't think we have devices with DSI command mode working for omapfb but not for omapdrm? What got missed for v5.6-rc1 is the LCD backlight patch though, I think the only issue there is default-brightness vs more common default-brightness-value usage if you have any input to that. > > > This is probably known, but for devices that would like use PowerVR SGX, > > > there sometimes is only userspace available that works with omap(l)fb, > > > and not with DRM.

OK so then the only blocker seems to be the lack of SGX blobs for omap3 devices which seems to be in process of getting fixed.
