Boundary imx 5.4.x 2.1.0 lt8912 drm #64

Open grassead opened 3 years ago

grassead commented 3 years ago

Hello,

I just write a new driver for the lt8912 (mipi_dsi to hdmi converter) used on the DB_DSIHD board. This new driver acts as a DRM bridge to be used with libdrm. (For example you can now change the display resolution at runtime).

I wrote a new driver because I don't want to break the existing.

Thanks, Have a good day.

Hi Gary, is nitrogen8mm boards supporting upstream kernel? I think I have to test it before upstreaming it.

Thanks,

gibsson commented 3 years ago

No it is not. But the Nitrogen8M is, I believe you do have that platform too right?

grassead commented 3 years ago

Yes I have one of it. So I will try to test it on nitrogen8m platform and upstream my driver.

Are you working on upstreaming nitrogen8mm ? Maybe I can also add support for nitrogen8mm on upstream.

Thanks,

gibsson commented 3 years ago

At this time I unfortunately do not have the time to upstream the platform no. If you do it, please make sure to CC me so I can review and test it. Thanks!

Ok, thanks for your time,

Have a nice day.

Just a last question, which defconfig should I use on the master branch of the kernel (I found the dtb but not the defconfig).

Thanks,
