Allwinner A10 Display Pipeline
==============================
The Allwinner A10 Display pipeline is composed of several components
that are going to be documented below:
TV Encoder
----------
The TV Encoder supports the composite and VGA output. It is one end of
the pipeline.
Required properties:
- compatible: value should be "allwinner,sun4i-a10-tv-encoder".
- reg: base address and size of memory-mapped region
- clocks: the clocks driving the TV encoder
- resets: phandle to the reset controller driving the encoder
- ports: A ports node with endpoint definitions as defined in
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/media/video-interfaces.txt. The
first port should be the input endpoint.
TCON
----
The TCON acts as a timing controller for RGB, LVDS and TV interfaces.
Required properties:
- compatible: value must be either:
* allwinner,sun5i-a13-tcon
* allwinner,sun6i-a31-tcon
* allwinner,sun6i-a31s-tcon
* allwinner,sun8i-a33-tcon
- reg: base address and size of memory-mapped region
- interrupts: interrupt associated to this IP
- clocks: phandles to the clocks feeding the TCON. Three are needed:
- 'ahb': the interface clocks
- 'tcon-ch0': The clock driving the TCON channel 0
- resets: phandles to the reset controllers driving the encoder
- "lcd": the reset line for the TCON channel 0
- clock-names: the clock names mentioned above
- reset-names: the reset names mentioned above
- clock-output-names: Name of the pixel clock created
- ports: A ports node with endpoint definitions as defined in
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/media/video-interfaces.txt. The
first port should be the input endpoint, the second one the output
The output may have multiple endpoints. The TCON has two channels,
usually with the first channel being used for the panels interfaces
(RGB, LVDS, etc.), and the second being used for the outputs that
require another controller (TV Encoder, HDMI, etc.). The endpoints
will take an extra property, allwinner,tcon-channel, to specify the
channel the endpoint is associated to. If that property is not
present, the endpoint number will be used as the channel number.
On SoCs other than the A33, there is one more clock required:
- 'tcon-ch1': The clock driving the TCON channel 1
DRC
---
The DRC (Dynamic Range Controller), found in the latest Allwinner SoCs
(A31, A23, A33), allows to dynamically adjust pixel
brightness/contrast based on histogram measurements for LCD content
adaptive backlight control.
Required properties:
- compatible: value must be one of:
* allwinner,sun8i-a33-drc
- reg: base address and size of the memory-mapped region.
- interrupts: interrupt associated to this IP
- clocks: phandles to the clocks feeding the DRC
* ahb: the DRC interface clock
* mod: the DRC module clock
* ram: the DRC DRAM clock
- clock-names: the clock names mentioned above
- resets: phandles to the reset line driving the DRC
- ports: A ports node with endpoint definitions as defined in
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/media/video-interfaces.txt. The
first port should be the input endpoints, the second one the outputs
Display Engine Backend
----------------------
The display engine backend exposes layers and sprites to the
system.
Required properties:
- compatible: value must be one of:
* allwinner,sun5i-a13-display-backend
* allwinner,sun6i-a31-display-backend
* allwinner,sun8i-a33-display-backend
- reg: base address and size of the memory-mapped region.
- clocks: phandles to the clocks feeding the frontend and backend
* ahb: the backend interface clock
* mod: the backend module clock
* ram: the backend DRAM clock
- clock-names: the clock names mentioned above
- resets: phandles to the reset controllers driving the backend
- ports: A ports node with endpoint definitions as defined in
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/media/video-interfaces.txt. The
first port should be the input endpoints, the second one the output
On the A33, some additional properties are required:
- reg needs to have an additional region corresponding to the SAT
- reg-names need to be set, with "be" and "sat"
- clocks and clock-names need to have a phandle to the SAT bus
clocks, whose name will be "sat"
- resets and reset-names need to have a phandle to the SAT bus
resets, whose name will be "sat"
Display Engine Frontend
-----------------------
The display engine frontend does formats conversion, scaling,
deinterlacing and color space conversion.
Required properties:
- compatible: value must be one of:
* allwinner,sun5i-a13-display-frontend
* allwinner,sun6i-a31-display-frontend
* allwinner,sun8i-a33-display-frontend
- reg: base address and size of the memory-mapped region.
- interrupts: interrupt associated to this IP
- clocks: phandles to the clocks feeding the frontend and backend
* ahb: the backend interface clock
* mod: the backend module clock
* ram: the backend DRAM clock
- clock-names: the clock names mentioned above
- resets: phandles to the reset controllers driving the backend
- ports: A ports node with endpoint definitions as defined in
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/media/video-interfaces.txt. The
first port should be the input endpoints, the second one the outputs
Display Engine Pipeline
-----------------------
The display engine pipeline (and its entry point, since it can be
either directly the backend or the frontend) is represented as an
extra node.
Required properties:
- compatible: value must be one of:
* allwinner,sun5i-a13-display-engine
* allwinner,sun6i-a31-display-engine
* allwinner,sun6i-a31s-display-engine
* allwinner,sun8i-a33-display-engine
- allwinner,pipelines: list of phandle to the display engine
frontends available.
