The setup is panel specific and interface specific. Unless your panel is specced the exact same way as the mi0283qt panel, then the dt024ctft panel will have different power pump setup, gamma curve etc. So each panel needs its own prepare function. Some panels even have commands in their setup that isn't listed in the controller datasheet, ie. they have a custom controller for their display. Some even pretend to be one controller, but reading the register contents, it's doubtful that this is true and it's more likely to be a clone.

Re: [RFC 0/4] drm/mipi-dbi: Support panel drivers
Yes, the onboard RAM is ili9341 feature. I am able to drive the DisplayTech DT024CTFT panel in both modes. I've just tested the DisplayTech DT024CTFT panel with your patchset and it works fine with parallel RGB input mode: compatible = "displaytech,dt024ctft", "ilitek,ili9341"; and with SPI input mode: compatible = "mi,mi0283qt", "ilitek,ili9341"; However, there seems to be an issue when i use compatible = "displaytech,dt024ctft", "ilitek,ili9341"; but no port property. This is caused by calling dt024ctft_prepare in such case. I would expected the driver to fallback to SPI input mode in such case. In other words, the ili9341-based panels can be used in both modes, but not all displays available on the market provide breakout pins for the parallel RGB connection. út 30. 7. 2019 v 16:08 odesílatel Noralf Trønnes napsal: > > > > Den 30.07.2019 08.40, skrev Josef Luštický: > > Hi Noralf, > > the patch series looks good, see comments in the patch emails. > > > > One question: is there a general mechanism to tell a driver not to use > > parallel RGB even though > > the display supports it and "port" is specified in the device-tree? > > > > Not that I know of.

It was just one difference that stood out which would make it easy to have the same panel driver support both DPI and DBI pixel mode. Since your panel has a ili9341 I assmue it has onboard RAM? So you should be able to drive your display in both modes I guess.

Re: [RFC 0/4] drm/mipi-dbi: Support panel drivers
Hi Noralf, the patch series looks good, see comments in the patch emails. One question: is there a general mechanism to tell a driver not to use parallel RGB even though the display supports it and "port" is specified in the device-tree?

[RFC 0/4] drm/mipi-dbi: Support panel drivers
Inspired by the thread[1] following the submission of a new ili9341 panel driver[2], I set out to see if I could support panel drivers in drm_mipi_dbi. I have included the original driver, done some prep work on it, added panel support to drm_mipi_dbi and converted mi0283qt to this new panel driver. The big question is whether or not panel drivers should be allowed to turn themselves into full fledged DRM drivers. Noralf.
