With upcoming VOP2 support VOP won't be the only choice anymore, so make
the VOP driver optional.

That reminds me that I wanted to rephrase this. Will change in next

Aanlogix dp is also on vop2 base soc such as  rk356x and rk3588.
BTW I just looked at the downstream driver. Here we have the same
situation that the analogix dp driver calls rockchip_drm_wait_vact_end()
which is implemented in the VOP driver, so when the analogix dp driver
is actually used on a VOP2 SoC then it is either used in a way that
rockchip_drm_wait_vact_end() will never be called or it explodes in all
colours.

I added the dependency because analogix_dp-rockchip.c calls
rockchip_drm_wait_vact_end() which is implemented in the VOP driver,
so this driver currenty can't work with the VOP2 driver and can't
be linked without the VOP driver being present.
I'll add a few words to the commit message.
Maybe a better direction is move rockchip_drm_wait_vact_end from the VOP
driver to rockchip_drm_drv.c
I am not sure if that's really worth it. Yes, the direction might be the
right one, but I would really prefer when somebody does the change who
can test and confirm that the analogix dp really works with VOP2 in the
end.
If follow this point, the current DW_MIPI also has not been tested for
confirm that it

can really work with VOP2, so you should also make it depends on
ROCKCHIP_VOP.
Well at least I have patches here which make DW_MIPI work with VOP2 ;)

But you DW_MIPI patches for rk356x didn't come. So this is not keep
consistency with this point.

What about the others, like LVDS and RGB?

Yes, we also have other interface , RK356X has LVDS/RGB/BT1120/BT656, RK3588
has BT1120/BT656, no LVDS or RGB.

I think the current solution is just a workaround to make your patch pass
the kernel compile
Indeed.

I agree that it would be good to add a note somewhere which outputs
work with the VOP2 driver (currently only HDMI), but I wonder if Kconfig
dependencies is the right place for it, because only people who deliberately
disable VOP support will see this information.
Maybe we should rather add it to the Kconfig help text?

If a device is supported for this soc, we will add dt node at the dtsi file.

A Kconfig dependencies don't seems a good idea.
Ok, this means we can keep my current approach with just letting
ROCKCHIP_ANALOGIX_DP depend on ROCKCHIP_VOP to avoid having a non

Excuse me? How do you get this conclusion ?

I said before,  vop and vop2 based platforms both have ROCKCHIP_ANALOGIX_DP.

If this patch will cause the compile error, please do a real fix, not a

workaround that may deliver misleading information.

buildable kernel.
