That's the idea, yes, if the DDC lines are connected to an I2C controller on the SoC. Of course, if the DDC lines are connected directly to an HDMI encoder that has an internal I2C controller, then the ddc-i2c-bus property shouldn't be added, and the DRM bridge driver for the HDMI encoder should report the EDID read ability. > If so, I'll fix up the mtk_hdmi.c driver and update the anx7688 driver > in the next version. Thank you. I had a quick look at the mtk_hdmi driver, ideally support for reading EDID should be dropped from there. As far as I understand, the mtk_hdmi bridge is connected to the mtk_dpi bridge, whose driver uses the drm_bridge_connector helper, so it shouldn't be too difficult. > > > [2]: https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/drivers/gpu/drm/mediatek/mtk_hdmi.c#L1500 > > > [3]: https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/drivers/gpu/drm/sun4i/sun4i_hdmi_enc.c#L240 > > > > > > > > > > + > > > > > > > + ports: > > > > > > > + $ref: /schemas/graph.yaml#/properties/ports > > > > > > > + > > > > > > > + properties: > > > > > > > + port@0: > > > > > > > + $ref: /schemas/graph.yaml#/properties/port > > > > > > > + description: | > > > > > > > + Video port for input. > > > > > > > + > > > > > > > + port@1: > > > > > > > + $ref: /schemas/graph.yaml#/properties/port > > > > > > > + description: | > > > > > > > + 2 video ports for output. > > > > > > > + The reg value in the endpoints matches the GPIO status: when > > > > > > > + GPIO is asserted, endpoint with reg value <1> is selected. > > > > > > > + > > > > > > > + required: > > > > > > > + - port@0 > > > > > > > + - port@1 > > > > > > > + > > > > > > > +required: > > > > > > > + - compatible > > > > > > > + - detect-gpios > > > > > > > + - ports > > > > > > > + > > > > > > > +unevaluatedProperties: false > > > > > > > + > > > > > > > +examples: > > > > > > > + - | > > > > > > > + #include <dt-bindings/gpio/gpio.h> > > > > > > > + hdmi_mux: hdmi_mux { > > > > > > > + compatible = "gpio-display-mux"; > > > > > > > + detect-gpios = <&pio 36 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>; > > > > > > > + pinctrl-names = "default"; > > > > > > > + pinctrl-0 = <&hdmi_mux_pins>; > > > > > > > + ddc-i2c-bus = <&hdmiddc0>; > > > > > > > + > > > > > > > + ports { > > > > > > > + #address-cells = <1>; > > > > > > > + #size-cells = <0>; > > > > > > > + > > > > > > > + port@0 { /* input */ > > > > > > > + reg = <0>; > > > > > > > + > > > > > > > + hdmi_mux_in: endpoint { > > > > > > > + remote-endpoint = <&hdmi0_out>; > > > > > > > + }; > > > > > > > + }; > > > > > > > + > > > > > > > + port@1 { /* output */ > > > > > > > + reg = <1>; > > > > > > > + > > > > > > > + #address-cells = <1>; > > > > > > > + #size-cells = <0>; > > > > > > > + > > > > > > > + hdmi_mux_out_anx: endpoint@0 { > > > > > > > + reg = <0>; > > > > > > > + remote-endpoint = <&dp_bridge_in>; > > > > > > > + }; > > > > > > > + > > > > > > > + hdmi_mux_out_hdmi: endpoint@1 { > > > > > > > + reg = <1>; > > > > > > > + remote-endpoint = <&hdmi_connector_in>; > > > > > > > + }; > > > > > > > + }; > > > > > > > + }; > > > > > > > + }; -- Regards, Laurent Pinchart
