A quick question. I'm having difficulty understanding the larger
picture here. There's the MIPI-DSI host controller driver (which I
think is what this patch is) which is specific to this platform. Then
there's the MIPI-DSI LCD panels which are supposed to be fully
platform independent, right? and would thus ideally have a platform
independent MIPI-DSI client driver?
Would I be correct in saying this patch below does not provide such an
abstraction and so structures that would be necessary for such a
display driver (eg: struct mipi_lcd_driver ) appear to be declared in
the samsung platform specific files. In other words, if we wanted to
support a particular MIPI-DSI LCD panel, it would require a client
driver that is tied intimately to this platform?
Could you point us to an example mipi-dsi client driver that is using
the patch you provided? ie: something that is calling
s5p_dsim_register_lcd_driver. That would help us understand the
abstraction that is being made here.
Thanks,
jaya
