[PATCHv14 3/7] video: add of helper for display timings/videomode

Steffen Trumtrar s.trumtrar at pengutronix.de
Fri Nov 23 01:04:23 PST 2012


This adds support for reading display timings from DT into a struct
display_timings. The of_display_timing implementation supports multiple
subnodes. All children are read into an array, that can be queried.

If no native mode is specified, the first subnode will be used.

For cases, where the graphics drivers knows, there can be only one
mode description or where the driver only supports one mode, a helper
function of_get_videomode is added, that gets a struct videomode from DT.
(As this function is implemented in an expensive fashion, it should only
be used in the aforementioned case).

This also demonstrates how of_display_timings may be utilized.

+display-timings bindings
+========================
+
+display-timings node
+--------------------
+
+required properties:
+ - none
+
+optional properties:
+ - native-mode: The native mode for the display, in case multiple modes are
+		provided. When omitted, assume the first node is the native.
+
+timings subnode
+---------------
+
+required properties:
+ - hactive, vactive: Display resolution
+ - hfront-porch, hback-porch, hsync-len: Horizontal Display timing parameters
+   in pixels
+   vfront-porch, vback-porch, vsync-len: Vertical display timing parameters in
+   lines
+ - clock-frequency: display clock in Hz
+
+optional properties:
+ - hsync-active: Hsync pulse is active low/high/ignored
+ - vsync-active: Vsync pulse is active low/high/ignored
+ - de-active: Data-Enable pulse is active low/high/ignored
+ - pixelclk-inverted: pixelclock is inverted (active on falling edge)/
+				non-inverted (active on rising edge)/
+				     ignored (ignore property)
+ - interlaced (bool): boolean to enable interlaced mode
+ - doublescan (bool): boolean to enable doublescan mode
+ - doubleclk (bool)
+
+All the optional properties that are not bool follow the following logic:
+    <1>: high active
+    <0>: low active
+    omitted: not used on hardware
+
+There are different ways of describing the capabilities of a display. The devicetree
+representation corresponds to the one commonly found in datasheets for displays.
+If a display supports multiple signal timings, the native-mode can be specified.
+
+The parameters are defined as

+
+	display-timings {

+		timing0: 1080p24 {
+			/* 1920x1080p24 */
+			clock-frequency = <52000000>;
+			hactive = <1920>;
+			vactive = <1080>;
+			hfront-porch = <25>;
+			hback-porch = <25>;
+			hsync-len = <25>;
+			vback-porch = <2>;
+			vfront-porch = <2>;
+			vsync-len = <2>;
+			hsync-active = <1>;
+		};
+	};
+
+Every required property also supports the use of ranges, so the commonly used
+datasheet description with <min typ max>-tuples can be used.
+
+Example:
+
+	timing1: timing {
+		/* 1920x1080p24 */
+		clock-frequency = <148500000>;
+		hactive = <1920>;
+		vactive = <1080>;
+		hsync-len = <0 44 60>;
+		hfront-porch = <80 88 95>;
+		hback-porch = <100 148 160>;
+		vfront-porch = <0 4 6>;
+		vback-porch = <0 36 50>;
+		vsync-len = <0 5 6>;
