Which system/soc are you testing this on ?

On a raspberry-pi 4 at the moment.

Ah, OK, it seems this bridge is popular on RPi.
Is there some adapter board with such a bridge for RPi available ?

Taking the chip out of reset here is not needed and may even disrupt things, as the DSI hasn't set up anything yet so the clock may not be running. I'd move this all into enable and get rid of the pre_enable call. Similar for post_disable.

I am still waiting for someone to confirm the behavior of the DSI clock and data lanes in pre_enable/enable() . The datasheet says the HS clock have to be running and data lanes must be in LP state during init, but I don't think that is guaranteed currently in either pre_enable or enable.

Neither is suited. pre-enable may have nothing, while enable has the data lanes sending video according to the docs. So on many systems either this driver or the DSI driver will need changes to make it work properly.

On the raspberrypi, the DSI has the clock running in pre-enable, hence putting everything in pre-enable instead of in enable makes the chip work.

I think someone from the RPi foundation mentioned this before.

Alternatively, one can modify the RPi DSI code to start sending data after the enable calls. That also works on my setup, with everything in enable.

The major point here is that you should pick one and only one callback: pre-enable or enable. The GPIO reset code as well as writing the registers should be done in that one method.

Why , please elaborate ? It seems to be if there was no need for those two callbacks, there would be no two callbacks in the API in the first place. There is a chance you will get disable()->enable() sequence without going through post_disable()->pre_enable() as far as I can tell.

Same for (post)disable for symmetry. There's no point keeping the chip awake after a disable.


It's pretty likely for a DSI driver to have the clock active in order to allow the panel driver to send MIPI commands and things like that. So everything in pre_enable makes sense.

That's how the RPi behaves, on MX8M the DSI clock are active only in enable. But that might be wrong, see below.

I don't know how the platform you're testing on is behaving in this respect?

iMX8M{M,N}.

And I suspect the DSI behaves differently than on RPi. And that is why I would like to get some clarification on what (clock, data, LP and HS) is enabled where from the maintainers.

Writing 0 to the RESET register is a no-op. Has no effect whatsoever, just wasting time and code.

I would rather keep it to make sure the register is initialized.

Why? It's marked "volatile" so the regmap cache will not touch it. On the I2C level, there's absolutely no reason to do this.

It still does trigger a write into the hardware.

I think this ignores the endian format of the data. So this would only work on little-endian systems, right?

Likely, can you double-check that ?
Some cpu_to_le16() could help here then.

I'd add a small helper function that does the endian conversion and register write, e.g.

static int sn65dsi83_write16bit(struct sn65dsi83 *ctx, unsigned int reg, u16 value)

That just adds unnecessary indirection and makes the code harder to read, so I won't do that. val = cpu_to_le16(...) looks good enough and there are already such sequences, i.e. val = ... ; regmap_bulk_write(...);
