I had the good fortune of meeting Grant at LinuxCon last week and talked
through this patchset a little (thanks!)
The message I got from Grant was that the patches are basically OK. He
did have a couple of concerns:
* Does this cause the compiled DTB to blow up in size.
The DTB goes from ~3-4K to ~8-9K with these patches added. While that
is a large % increase, Grant said that as an absolute value, that size
shouldn't be an issue.
* There's lots of repetition in the .dts representation; can this be improved?
We discussed enhancing the syntax a little, so that you can configure
multiple pins/pingroups from a single node. In particular, the syntax
in my patches was:
ld0 {
nvidia,function = "displaya";
nvidia,pull-down;
};
ld1 {
nvidia,function = "displaya";
nvidia,pull-down;
};
Which we discussed enhancing to something like:
ld0 {
additional-pins = "ld1", "ld2", ...;
nvidia,function = "displaya";
nvidia,pull-down;
};
or:
meaningless-name { // typically would just use the pin name
pins = "ld0", "ld1", "ld2", ...;
nvidia,function = "displaya";
nvidia,pull-down;
};
* We also briefly discussed that dtc could be modified to support symbolic
constants, so we could use named integers for the function names (perhaps
pin names too). I'll look into how easy it is to modify dtc for this.
I'll look into implementing these enhancements, and others discussed in
this email thread, and repost.
