+description: |
+ The AM625 TI Keystone OpenLDI transmitter (OLDI TX) supports serialized RGB
+ pixel data transmission between host and flat panel display over LVDS (Low
+ Voltage Differential Sampling) interface. The OLDI TX consists of 7-to-1 data
+ serializers, and 4-data and 1-clock LVDS outputs. It supports the LVDS output
+ formats "jeida-18", "jeida-24" and "vesa-18", and can accept 24-bit RGB or
+ padded and un-padded 18-bit RGB bus formats as input.

What bus does this device live on ? Couldn't the I/O register space be
referenced by the reg property ?.
These registers are a part of the system-controller register space
(ctrl_mmr0). The whole register set is owned by the main_conf[0]
devicetree node, with sub-nodes pointing to specific regions. That's why
I cannot reference these registers directly.
Then what does 'reg' represent? Looks like you just made up an index. If
so, then this should probably be a child of &dss_oldi_io_ctrl instead.
Or it should just be merged into that node.
I did make up an index when I used the 'reg' property. Similar to how
ports can be indexed. The AM65 has 1 OLDI TX. AM62 and AM62P have 2 OLDI
TXes each. The index is to help the driver parse through each of them.
If I push these OLDI TX nodes as child nodes under &dss_oldi_io_ctrl,
then that would be an inaccurate representation of the hardware.
The OLDI TXes are very well a part of the DSS hardware. As such, the
(three) registers that control the functionality have been made a part
of the DSS video-port (VP) register space, leaving OLDI TXes with no
direct access to the primary bus (cbass_main) where the DSS sits.
The IO control registers, on the other hand, do not affect OLDI
functionality in any way. These are just helper registers that merely
control the power characteristics of the OLDI data and clock lanes.
Just summarizing my understanding from today's code and ref manual (TRM)
reading, which mostly repeats what Aradhya said above:
There may be 0, 1 or 2 OLDI instances, depending on the SoC. With two
instances, they may be (or are currently always?) connected to the same
display controller videoport, and thus can be used for cloning or
dual-link lvds.
In the TRM the OLDI instances are depicted to be inside DSS (display
subsystem), but outside DISPC (display controller). However, the
registers to configure and control OLDI are in the DISPC register block.
More specifically, in the DISPC VP1 block, which is the videoport to
which the OLDIs are connected to, and additionally one bit in the
DSS_SYSSTATUS register.
The oldi-io-ctrl points to a system-control module, which contains a
register to control OLDI power up/down. But why is it called
"oldi-io-ctrl"? The register in question is OLDI_PD_CTRL.
So... How to represent this in the DT?
I think we do want have separate nodes for the OLDIs, so that we can use
the of_graph to represent how the data flows. OLDI doesn't have its own
register block, and is controlled via DSS. If the OLDI nodes are not
children of the DSS node, where could they be?
I think the DT design in these patches matches my understanding of the
hardware.
