Command mode panels provide TE signal back to the DSI host to signal
that the frame display has completed and update of the image will not

be skipped.
This is a good addition overall. Some comments below.

are gpio0, gpio1 and gpio2 referring to the vsync_p, vsync_s and vsync_e
sources?
No idea, unfortunately. They are gpioN or just mdp_vsync all over the
place. For the reference, in case of the SDM845 and Pixel3 the signal
is routed through SoC GPIO12.
GPIO12 on sdm845 is mdp_vsync_e.
Thats why I think its better we use mdp_vsync_p/s/e instead of mdp_gpio0/1/2
Sure. This matches pins description. Are you fine with changing
defines in DPU driver to VSYNC_P / _S / _E too ?
Sorry for the delay in responding.
As per the software docs, the registers still use GPIO0/1/2.
Only the pin descriptions use vsync_p/s/e.
Hence I think we can make DPU driver to use 0/1/2.
In that case wouldnt it be better to name it like that?

These are indicating watchdog timer sources right?
Yes.

I have a basic doubt on this. Should te-source should be in the input
port or the output one for the controller? Because TE is an input to the
DSI. And if the source is watchdog timer then it aligns even more as a
property of the input endpoint.
I don't really want to split this. Both data-lanes and te-source are
properties of the link between the DSI and panel. You can not really
say which side has which property.
TE is an input to the DSI from the panel. Between input and output port,
I think it belongs more to the input port.
Technically we don't have in/out ports. There are two ports which
define a link between two instances. For example, if the panel
supports getting information through DCS commands, then "panel input"
also becomes "panel output".
The ports are labeled dsi0_in and dsi0_out. Putting te source in
dsi0_out really looks very confusing to me.
I didnt follow why this is a link property. Sorry , I didnt follow the
split part.
There is a link between the DSI host and the panel. I don't want to
end up in a situation when the properties of the link are split
between two different nodes.
It really depends on what the property denotes. I do not think this
should be the reason to do it this way.
If we are unsure about input vs output port, do you think its better we
make it a property of the main dsi node instead?
No, it's not a property of the DSI node at all. If the vendor rewires
the panel GPIOs or (just for example regulators), it has nothing to do
with the DSI host.
Ack to this.
