[PATCH v3 0/3] drm: describe display bus format

[PATCH v3 0/3] drm: describe display bus format

[Boris Brezillon]

Hello,

This series makes use of the MEDIA_BUS_FMT definition to describe how
the data are transmitted to the display.

This will allow drivers to configure their output display bus according
to the display capabilities.
For example some display controllers support DPI (or raw RGB) connectors
and need to specify which format will be transmitted on the DPI bus
(RGB444, RGB565, RGB888, ...).

This series also adds a field to the panel_desc struct so that one
can specify which format is natevely supported by a panel.

Regards,

Boris

Changes since v2:
 - use the MEDIA_BUS_FMT macros

Changes since v1:
 - rename nformats into num_formats
 - declare num_formats as an unsigned int

Boris Brezillon (3):
  drm: add bus_formats and nbus_formats fields to drm_display_info
  drm: panel: simple-panel: add support for bus_format retrieval
  drm: panel: simple-panel: add bus format information for foxlink panel

[PATCH v3 1/3] drm: add bus_formats and nbus_formats fields to drm_display_info

[Boris Brezillon]

Add bus_formats and nbus_formats fields and
drm_display_info_set_bus_formats helper function to specify the bus
formats supported by a given display.

This information can be used by display controller drivers to configure
the output interface appropriately (i.e. RGB565, RGB666 or RGB888 on raw
RGB or LVDS busses).

[PATCH v3 2/3] drm: panel: simple-panel: add support for bus_format retrieval

[Boris Brezillon]

Provide a way to specify panel requirement in terms of supported media bus
format (particularly useful for panels connected to an RGB or LVDS bus).

Thierry, Laurent, Dave, can you take a look at this patch series: this
is the last missing dependency to get the atmel-hlcdc DRM driver
mainlined, and I was expecting to get this driver in 3.19...

Boris

Hi Boris,

Thank you for the patch. I just have two small comments.

Could you document that the formats are specified as MEDIA_BUS_FMT_* values ?

As the number of formats is never negative, I would make it an unsigned int.

I've reviewed the series, it looks globally fine to me. I just had two small 
comments on patch 1/3.
