The semantics of DRM_BRIDGE_ATTACH_NO_CONNECTOR flagare implement-defined,
No, they are not. Semantics are pretty simple: do not create the
drm_connector instance. Pass the flag to the next bridge in the chain.
for our case, I could just ignore it if their
don't have a signal(DT or ACPI) tell me that there are multiple bridges
in the chain. This depend on community's attitude.
Ignoring a flag is a bad idea.
Can you also read the code in the bridge/lontium-lt8912.c please?
when flags == 0 is true, the lt8912 driver will just create
a drm_connector instance in the drm bridge drivers. The behavior
is similar with this patch in the perspective of spirit.
And the most important thing is that no matter what the flag the upstream
port is passed, lt8912 just always pass the DRM_BRIDGE_ATTACH_NO_CONNECTOR
flags to the next bridge. Does this count as a kind of ignore? or
This is to say that both the lt8912 and the tfp410 drm bridge drivers are
allowing create a drm_connector manually in drm bridge drivers. They didn't
being asked to move the drm_connector related code to display controller
driver. I don't know why I can't follow this way?
Do you really read the code before do comments or I failed to understand something?
