[PATCH 13/20] drm/bridge: Add RGB to VGA bridge support

Maxime Ripard maxime.ripard at free-electrons.com
Mon May 16 12:47:13 UTC 2016


Some boards have an entirely passive RGB to VGA bridge, based on either
DACs or resistor ladders.

Those might or might not have an i2c bus routed to the VGA connector in
order to access the screen EDIDs.

Add a bridge that doesn't do anything but expose the modes available on the
screen, either based on the EDIDs if available, or based on the XGA
standards.

+Passive RGB to VGA bridge
+-------------------------
+
+This binding is aimed for entirely passive RGB to VGA bridges that do not
+require any configuration.
+
+Required properties:
+
+- compatible: Should be "dumb-vga-bridge"
+
+Optional properties:
+
+- ddc-i2c-bus: phandle to the i2c bus used to communicate with the monitor
+
+Required nodes:
+
+This device has one video port. Its connection is modelled using the OF
+graph bindings specified in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/graph.txt. This
+connection is meant to be the RGB input bus.
+
+
+Example
+-------
+
+bridge {
+        compatible = "dumb-vga-bridge";
+        #address-cells = <1>;
+        #size-cells = <0>;
+
+        port at 0 {
+                reg = <0>;
+                #address-cells = <1>;
+                #size-cells = <0>;
+
+                vga_input: endpoint at 0 {
+                        reg = <0>;
+                        remote-endpoint = <&tcon0_out_vga>;
+               };
+        };
+};
