The width your panel has in input is in 24 bits. The width the encoder
outputs in is 16 bits. This is the panel driver, you should expose the
panel capabilities.

Having the format in the DT doesn't make much sense. A given panel can

Isn't the panel format supposed to match what the encoder's output
should be aiming for? In my case, that would be RGB666, so the idea
would be specifying both MEDIA_BUS_FMT_RGB666_1X18 and
MEDIA_BUS_FMT_RGB888_1X24 in a list of supported bus formats for the
panel. This way, both my setup and RGB888 setups can be supported.

Well, we already have bus-format defines on the DRM side and it feels
like mapping these directly in device-tree would be more useful as a
description of the hardware than just having the bus width.

I'm not sure this is needed, the input format is always the same in
your case, the panel will always take a 24 bits RGB value. What you
want to change is the encoder output format (and I guess you want that
to be meaningful to enable or not the dithering).

I guess the width would be enough, and that way we can take the
bus-width format that is already defined (but used in the v4l2
framework, not in DRM yet).

I fully agree, this is why I suggested introducing a dedicated dt
property for selecting the bus format (in the commit message). I still
proposed this patch as a temporary solution, but I'm definitely willing
to craft a proper solution as well.

Here is an initial proposition:
1. Making bus_format an array in struct panel_desc and listing all the
relevant bus formats that the panel can support there;
2. Introducing an optional "bus-format" dt property that indicates which
bus format to use, and using the first index of the bus formats array if
the property is not present;
3. Checking that the bus format requested from dt is supported by the
panel.

What do you think?

I'm not really convinced this is the right approach. You said it
yourself, the panel is using a 24-bits interface, and you just happen
to have a tablet that routed it using a 18-bits interface instead.

That doesn't belong in the driver, especially associated to the
compatible, but where the routing is described: in the device
tree. And given that the panel interface is a 24 bits panel, if we
were to have a default, we should have this one, and not the one
fitting your use case.

[PATCH v4 1/3] drm/panel: Add RGB666 variant of Innolux AT070TN90

[Paul Kocialkowski]

This adds timings for the RGB666 variant of the Innolux AT070TN90 panel,
as found on the Ainol AW1 tablet.

The panel also supports RGB888 output. When RGB666 mode is used instead,
the two extra lanes per component are grounded.

In the future, it might become necessary to introduce a dedicated
device-tree property to specify the bus format to use instead of the
default one for the panel. This will allow supporting different bus
formats for the same panel modes.
