The dw-hdmi output_port is set to 1 in order to look for a connector next bridge in order to get DRM_BRIDGE_ATTACH_NO_CONNECTOR working. The output_port set to 1 makes the DW HDMI driver core look up the next bridge in DT, where the next bridge is often the hdmi-connector . Similar to 0af5e0b41110 ("drm/meson: encoder_hdmi: switch to bridge DRM_BRIDGE_ATTACH_NO_CONNECTOR") Note that looking at the upstream arch/arm64/boot/dts/freescale/imx8mp*dts , the oldest commit which adds HDMI support is commit: 3e67a1ddd56d ("arm64: dts: imx8mp: Enable HDMI on TQMa8MPxL/MBa8MPxL") That already contains the HDMI connector node. Most follow up additions of HDMI support to another devices has been a variation of the same commit, including connector node, which is the proper way of eanbling HDMI on the i.MX8MP. The rest should be covered by output_port_optional which should make systems with DTs without HDMI connector node work, but such DTs should be updated and the HDMI connector node should be added.
