+title: Texas Instruments DS90UB913 FPD-Link 3 Serializer

I think TI consistently writes it "FPD-Link III". If you rename it,
please do so through the whole series.

Is the -q1 suffix needed, are there other variants ?

This should be "Parallel input port".

Oops...

Should at least the bus-width property be mandatory, as the device
supports both 10- and 12-bit inputs ?

Hmm... It supports 10-bit, 12-bit HF and 12-bit LF modes. If we need to configure the mode based on DT, we need one more property for the HF/LF. Then again, the HF/LF is separate from the input port, it's more about internal operation and the link to the deserializer.

However, this (the mode) should always be set in the HW via the MODE pins. And the driver can read the HW's MODE from the registers. Only in some very odd circumstances should the mode be configured by hand (and then carefully, as the link to the deserializer will drop).

So the bus-width is not something that the driver would normally use. If we would need to define the bus-width and HF/LF in the DT for some reason in the future, I think an "old" DT without those specified should continue working fine, as the mode can be read from a register.

That said, to complicate matters, the deserializer needs to know the serializer's mode before it can communicate with it (and thus, before we can read the mode). This is set with the deserializer's "ti,rx-mode" property, where you find RAW10, RAW12LF and RAW12HF modes (and for ub953, CSI-2 sync and non-sync modes).

So if we would define the bus-width and HF/LF in ub913's properties, the deserializer could go peeking the mode from there. But is that a good idea... I'm not so sure.
