DSI code for VBT has a set of ugly GPIO hacks, one of which is direct talking to GPIO IP behind the actual driver's back. A second attempt to fix that is here.
If I understood correctly, my approach should work in the similar way as the current IOSF GPIO. Hans, I believe you have some devices that use this piece of code, is it possible to give a test run on (one of) them? In v4: - fixed compile time errors in patch 14 (Hans, LKP) - fixed cover letter Subject - added patch 15 (as suggested by Ville) - added Ack tag (Jani) In v3: - incorporated series by Jani - incorporated couple of precursor patches by Hans - added Rb tag for used to be first three patches (Andi) - rebased on top of the above changes - fixed indexing for multi-community devices, such as Cherry View In v2: - added a few cleanup patches - reworked to use dynamic GPIO lookup tables - converted CHV as well Andy Shevchenko (9): drm/i915/dsi: Replace while(1) with one with clear exit condition drm/i915/dsi: Get rid of redundant 'else' drm/i915/dsi: Replace check with a (missing) MIPI sequence name drm/i915/dsi: Extract common soc_gpio_set_value() helper drm/i915/dsi: Replace poking of VLV GPIOs behind the driver's back drm/i915/dsi: Prepare soc_gpio_set_value() to distinguish GPIO communities drm/i915/dsi: Replace poking of CHV GPIOs behind the driver's back drm/i915/dsi: Combine checks in mipi_exec_gpio() drm/i915/iosf: Drop unused APIs Hans de Goede (2): drm/i915/dsi: Remove GPIO lookup table at the end of intel_dsi_vbt_gpio_init() drm/i915/dsi: Fix wrong initial value for GPIOs in bxt_gpio_set_value() Jani Nikula (5): drm/i915/dsi: assume BXT gpio works for non-native GPIO drm/i915/dsi: switch mipi_exec_gpio() from dev_priv to i915 drm/i915/dsi: clarify GPIO exec sequence drm/i915/dsi: rename platform specific *_exec_gpio() to *_gpio_set_value() drm/i915/dsi: bxt/icl GPIO set value do not need gpio source drivers/gpu/drm/i915/display/intel_dsi_vbt.c | 355 +++++++------------ drivers/gpu/drm/i915/vlv_sideband.c | 17 - drivers/gpu/drm/i915/vlv_sideband.h | 3 - 3 files changed, 136 insertions(+), 239 deletions(-) -- 2.40.0.1.gaa8946217a0b
