But I have few questions: 1. Have you read different real panels id's? In many cases (MIPI DSI, LVDS with EDID) manufacturers often forgot to set proper id fields. I do not know how EDID's ids are reliable in case of edp panels. 2. You are working with edp panels - beside EDID they have DPCD which contains things like IEEE_OUI and "Device Identification String", I guess they could be also used for detecting panels, have you considered it? I think DPCD Id should be assigned to EDP-Sink interface, and EDID Id to the actual panel behind it. With this assumption one could consider which timings should be property of which entity.

My general policy is to send the cover letter to everyone even if not everyone gets CCed on all patches, but it ended up as a lot... Speaking of which, I'd definitely be interested in your take on the defconfig topic: https://lore.kernel.org/r/CAD=FV=WPXAUyuAHb1jKx9F_aw+JGX4MWB3or=Eq5rXoKY=OQMw@mail.gmail.com Do you agree with Olof that I should set the "default" for the new config to be the same as the old config?

I do > not know how EDID's ids are reliable in case of edp panels. I have read several and (so far) they have been quite reliable but I will admit that I haven't done an exhaustive sample. I guess my answer to whether we can trust it is: a) Presumably you'd only use this new "edp-panel" compatible on systems whose panel IDs are known to be reliable. Old systems can keep determining the panel by compatible string. The two schemes can co-exist. b) As we start using this new scheme then there will be more validation of panel ID strings and, presumably, they will become more reliable. It is still true that ID conflicts could exist. A vendor could ship two different panels with the same ID and maybe nobody would notice because they weren't ever hooked up to the same board. In that case we'd have a question of what to do upstream. If this really happens then I suppose (worst case) we could use the device tree to help differentiate and each board could say that "panel ID <x> hooked up to this board is actually panel <y>". I hope we don't have to do that because it feels dirty, but at least it gives us _something_ if we get backed into a corner. > 2.

This could be another way to help us if we're backed into a corner in the future. Right now the driver requires that you give access to a full eDP AUX bus to use the "generic eDP" panel support even though it currently only relies on the EDID, so it would be pretty easy to utilize this info in the future. So far the ID has been reliable for me though. -Doug

I guess this is just misunderstanding. Symbol names: CONFIG_DRM_PANEL_SIMPLE=y CONFIG_DRM_PANEL_SIMPLE_EDP=y suggests that CONFIG_DRM_PANEL_SIMPLE_EDP is an 'suboption' of CONFIG_DRM_PANEL_SIMPLE, but these symbols are independent - old symbol has been split into two independent new symbols. So Doug's approach seems correct to me. Maybe one could change names of symbols to avoid confusion(?). One more thing, I suspect previous patch can break platforms with EDP panels. Even if this patch fixes it, maybe it would be better to squash these patches? Or add temporal solution to save bisecatability. Regards Andrzej > > -Doug >

OK, so I'm trying to figure out how to do this without just "kicking the can" down the road. I guess your idea is that for the next year this will be the default and that anyone who really wants "CONFIG_DRM_PANEL_EDP" will "opt-in" to keep it by adding "CONFIG_DRM_PANEL_EDP=y" to their config? ...and then after a year passes we remove the default? ...but that won't work, will it? Since "CONFIG_DRM_PANEL_EDP" will be the default for the next year then you really can't add it to the "defconfig", at least if you ever "normalize" it. The "defconfig" by definition has everything stripped from it that's already the "default", so for the next year anyone who tries to opt-in will get their preference stripped. Hrm, so let me explain options as I see them. Maybe someone can point out something that I missed. I'll assume that we'll change the config option from CONFIG_DRM_PANEL_SIMPLE_EDP to CONFIG_DRM_PANEL_EDP (remove the "SIMPLE" part). == Where we were before my series: * One config "CONFIG_DRM_PANEL_SIMPLE" and it enables simple non-eDP and eDP drivers. == Option 1: update everyone's configs (this patch) * Keep old config "CONFIG_DRM_PANEL_SIMPLE" but it now only means enable the panel-simple (non-eDP) driver. * Anyone who wants eDP panels must opt-in to "CONFIG_DRM_PANEL_EDP" * Update all configs in mainline; any out-of mainline configs must figure this out themselves. Pros: * no long term baggage Cons: * patch upstream is a bit of "churn" * anyone with downstream config will have to figure out what happened. == Option 2: kick the can down the road + accept cruft * Keep old config "CONFIG_DRM_PANEL_SIMPLE" and it means enable the panel-simple (non-eDP) driver. * Anyone with "CONFIG_DRM_PANEL_SIMPLE" is opted in by default to "CONFIG_DRM_PANEL_EDP" AKA: config DRM_PANEL_EDP default DRM_PANEL_SIMPLE Pros: * no config patches needed upstream at all and everything just works! Cons: * people are opted in to extra cruft by default and need to know to turn it off. * unclear if we can change the default without the same problems. == Option 3: try to be clever * Add _two_ new configs. CONFIG_DRM_PANEL_SIMPLE_V2 and CONFIG_DRM_PANEL_EDP. * Old config "CONFIG_DRM_PANEL_SIMPLE" gets marked as "deprecated". * Both new configs have "default CONFIG_DRM_PANEL_SIMPLE" Now anyone old will magically get both the new config options by default. Anyone looking at this in the future _won't_ set the deprecated CONFIG_DRM_PANEL_SIMPLE but will instead choose if they want either the eDP or "simple" driver. Pros: * No long term baggage. * Everyone is transitioned automatically by default with no cruft patches. Cons: * I can't think of a better name than "CONFIG_DRM_PANEL_SIMPLE_V2" and that name is ugly. == Option 4: shave a yak When thinking about this I came up with a clever idea of stashing the kernel version in a defconfig when it's generated. Then you could do something like: config DRM_PANEL_EDP default DRM_PANEL_SIMPLE if DEFCONFIG_GENERATED_AT <= 0x00050f00 That feels like a good idea to me but who knows what others would think. In general I think this series already shaves enough yaks. This isn't a new problem we're trying to solve so it seems like we should pick one of the options above. == Unless I get an explicit NAK from someone like Olof or Arnd or I hear that everyone loves Option #3 I'll probably just stick with the existing approach since: * Olof's wording didn't make it sound like a strong objection. * From git history it looks as if config patches don't necessarily land through the SoC tree and thus I'd by default follow the suggestions of the DRM folks. Andrzej suggested going with the existing approach as long as I changed the symbol names and re-ordered the patches. Please yell if anything above sounds wrong! I'll probably try to send out a new version tomorrow or the next day, but I won't land it right away to give people time to yell. -Doug

Yeah, not a strong objection but an enquiry if there's a better way to handle it. TL;DR: I don't think there really is. My comment mostly came from the fact that when olddefconfig gets broken like this, we tend to have a bunch of patches trickle in over time as downstream users discover the need to turn on the new option. You covered (most) of that by doing the appropriate defconfigs to this patch series, so it won't be as bad (besides any newly added defconfigs during the same release, and we're quite careful about doing that these days). I think most of the other options, besides 2, are just more overhead than needed here. So I'd be fine with just picking up option 1. What's clear is that this is not a very convenient activity that scales, but we don't do it all that often. This is where something like a "HAVE_EDP" type config that the platform can provide helps, but adding it just for this rework seems to be more work than it's worth. > * From git history it looks as if config patches don't necessarily > land through the SoC tree and thus I'd by default follow the > suggestions of the DRM folks.

Right, Kconfig changes usually go with the driver. dts and defconfig changes go to the SoC tree though since otherwise we end up with a bunch of churn and conflicts. > Please yell if anything above sounds wrong!

I'd leave it up to you if you want to do option 1 or 2, since there's no really convenient way to do it better. 3 seems to be a bigger hammer than what this situation calls for IMHO. -Olof

Sure, I'll do that. I was trying to express the fact that the new "panel-edp" driver won't actually handle _all_ eDP panels, only the eDP panels that are (comparatively) simpler. For instance, I'm not planning to handle panel-samsung-atna33xc20.c in "panel-edp".

There was some question about the defconfig patch but they are hopefully cleared up now. > I assume you will apply the patches yourself. Sure, I can do that with your Ack. I'll also make sure that patches that Jani commented on get resolved. -Doug

It's pretty much a no-brainer patch and there are no dependencies anywhere for it. c8527b9ad3cf (drm-misc/drm-misc-next) drm/panel-simple: Reorder logicpd_type_28 / mitsubishi_aa070mc01 -Doug
