I think the pll_p enable/disable problem with RGB is better fixed when we have some fancier clock infrastructure. I have some ideas how it could be fixed now, but given that I want to see pll_p or pll_d / pll_d2 selected automatically based on final clock, I'd rather hold off on fixing things that are not really broken that going to be replaced anyways. You can save a little power by leaving D pll's off, and the logic to do it isn't hard and fairly safe to hard code into the driver instead of trying to represent it in DT. (FYI - pll_d2 is a Tegra3 feature, this way you can do things like run DSI and HDMI with low jitter, instead of trying to take over pll_c for HDMI, which deprives other modules of the clock freedom) I have more DSI devices on Tegra3 than on Tegra2, so I'm putting Tegra3 support near the top of my TODO list, because in my mind getting forward progress on DSI support depends on it. HDMI programming is not too tough, it's mostly loading calibrated magic values into some SOR registers. The values are different for T20 and T30 series (same fields, just needed different calibration). -- "If you give someone a program, you will frustrate them for a day; if you teach them how to program, you will frustrate them for a lifetime." — David Leinweber -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-tegra" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
