No expert available?
Let me refine the question:
By using the descriptions of panel-common.yaml and panel-timing.yaml it
is possible to define a simple-panel by pure DTS means.
This timing setup is done by code through:
git blame drivers/gpu/drm/panel/panel-simple.c | grep of_get_display_timing
4a1d0dbc8332231 (Sam Ravnborg 2020-02-16 19:15:13 +0100 431)
ret = of_get_display_timing(np, "panel-timing", timing);
4a1d0dbc8332231 (Sam Ravnborg 2020-02-16 19:15:13 +0100 566)
if (!of_get_display_timing(dev->of_node, "panel-timing", &dt))
But it seems to lack a mechanism to define the connector type and bus format
which is needed to make a panel finally work.
Are we missing something or is the code/property missing?
If it is the first, please let us know so that we can use it.
If code is missing, please let us know so that we can suggest a patch.
BR and thanks,
Nikolaus
