Hi all,

I have picked up this long standing series from Nikhil Devshatwar[1].

This series moves the tidss to using new connectoe model, where the SoC
driver (tidss) creates the connector and all the bridges are attached
with the flag DRM_BRIDGE_ATTACH_NO_CONNECTOR. It also now creates bridge
to support format negotiation and and 'simple' encoder to expose it to
the userspace.

Since the bridges do not create the connector, the bus_format and
bus_flag is set via atomic hooks.

Support format negotiations in the tfp410, sii902x and mhdp-8546 bridge
drivers as a first step before moving the connector model.

These patches were tested on AM625-SK EVM, AM625 SoC based BeaglePlay,
and J721E-SK. Display support for AM625 SoC has not been added upstream
and is a WIP. To test this series on AM625 based platforms, basic
display support patches, (for driver + devicetree), can be found in
the "next_AttachNoConn-v2" branch on my github fork[2].

I can apply all bridge patches right now so only the tidss change remain,
is that ok for you ?


While the bridge patches and the tidss patch can be separately built
without any issue, the tidss functionality will break if only the bridge
patches get picked up, and not the tidss.

Would it be possible for you to pick all the patches together once Tomi
acks the tidss patch?

Sure

I think this looks fine. For the series:
